“Stealing the Future nails Sam Bankman-Fried for what he truly is: an overly-confident, ineffective and amoral narcissist.”
– Paul Dylan-Ennis, Assistant Professor, School of Business, University College Dublin
“Sam Bankman-Fried was Bernie Madoff cosplaying as Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory. Too many people who should have known better fell for his act, enabling one of the largest financial frauds in American history. The inimitable David Z. Morris offers a high-minded take on this tragic farce, exploring the wide-eyed philosophies that SBF used (and perhaps twisted) to rationalize his destructive behavior.”
– Marc Hochstein, Vice President for Research, Galaxy Digital; Former Deputy Editor-in-Chief, CoinDesk
“Stealing the Future explores the past to explain a present beset by futurists… It’s a plea for us to resist that fraud, and indeed, the grander fraud at the core of our society today: that the elites know better than us.”
– Josh Cincinnati, President of the Interchain Foundation and Former Executive Director of the Zcash Foundation, cypherpunk and privacy advocate
