3. SBF
He’s currently the man of the hour, but there are a lot of reasons that we’ll be talking about SBF for a long, long time. What a ridiculous executive. What a ridiculous company. If subsequent investigations are to be believed, FTX was run like a drunken pirate ship or a frat house in a skyscraper. The company, which briefly enjoyed world renown and massive financial inflows, imploded in a spectacular explosion of corruption and fraud in 2022. So long, Sam, and thanks for all the crime.
