Episode 45 - Goldeneye - Crypto, FTX, Sam Bankman Fried

Looking ahead to future James Bond films, Crypto and people like Sam Bankman Fried will likely play a large role.  An absolutely fascinating story, the history of crypto dates back to the early 1980's.  Recently, Sam Bankman Fried sent shock waves through the financial world when FTX declared bankruptcy, costing some of the most influential people in the world today hundreds of millions of dollars.  In one of the best examples of how quickly the modern world works today, a single tweet by a competitor sent a $32 billion company into bankruptcy in a matter of 6 days.  Join myself and Matt Perkins as we talk about the history of crypto, what happened in the FTX scandal, and how it will impact James Bond moving forward. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/donald-waldron/support
