SPF and FTX: Sam Bankman-Fried
Sam Bankman-Fried is a kid who grew up sort of from a position of huge privilege. Both his parents are lawyers. He went to MIT, then he went to Jane Street. And after that, he started a trading firm in I think 2017 called Alameda Research. They made their money early doing kind of smart trades like that. But now they're going to play a role in FTX's collapse actually.
