Did SBF ever believe in effective altruism or was it just clever branding? Does he have a “weird trick up his sleeve” to use during his trial? And is protocol enshrinement on Ethereum a good thing?
Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest news. This week, they discuss the wildest claims in Michael Lewis’ new book on Sam Bankman-Fried, debate whether SBF’s effective altruism was ever genuine, and whether Ethereum should enshrine more features onto its protocol.
