Most Bitcoiners still have not read Michael Lewis book on SBF- instead they swallowed the fiat bankers/establishment FUD on what was a hit job on SBF and FTX.
That book is probably still a bit too lenient, there was so much fuckery with the shell companies, money laundering, calling in the Enron guy. As I recall the commentary on the book at the time was that Lewis went easy on him.

Did you read the book itself? I did and it gave a very different picture to the hysteria going around at the time of the take down . . . read the book and decide for yourself but all I am saying is most Bitcoiners bought the witch hunt narrative that was not the full story. Everyone was using front companies to gain banking access- unless you were Coinbase and thus working for the fiat establishment all along. Lewis does not paint SBF as a saint but as a complex and highly skilled operator somewhere on the Asperger's spectrum - working in a financial culture culture of extremely questionable principles to say the least- SBF was a product of a corrupt financial sector culture but was taken down because what he was doing did not align with the political Chokepoint2 agenda of shutting down crypto.
