I just came across an interesting story. A former CEO of a certain exchange revealed in an interview that the founder of FTX had unofficially approached him for rescue before the platform collapsed, with an amount between 2 billion and 6 billion USD. It sounds unbelievable—how could this guy possibly come up with that much money all at once? And only later did I learn that the whole thing was full of lies and fraud.

What's even more interesting is that this founder of the exchange later went to prison for other reasons, and the conditions for writing his book inside were simply extraordinary. He could only use one terminal, with a messaging program that allowed only 15 minutes of writing at a time, no copy-pasting, and each message limited to 3,000 characters. These restrictions actually forced him to organize his thoughts quickly, and in the end, he managed to finish the first draft of the manuscript.

It's a bit surprising that a story about SBF's crazy period ended up being a tale of persevering through extreme conditions to create. These details sound almost made up.
