In his latest autobiography, Changpeng Zhao reflects on Sam Bankman-Fried and the final days of FTX.
On the eve of FTX’s collapse in 2022, CZ seriously considered stepping in with a rescue. But the deal quickly fell apart. According to him, SBF’s team was unable to produce a complete balance sheet within 24 hours—an immediate red flag that forced him to walk away.
