He was called the next Warren Buffett. A frizzy-haired math prodigy turned crypto billionaire who promised to revolutionize finance — not for profit, but for the greater good. Politicians embraced him. Celebrities endorsed him. Investors threw billions at him. And then, in a matter of days, it all collapsed.

In this gripping episode of Crime Fixation, hosts Jordan Wynn and Dr. Archer unravel the stunning rise and catastrophic fall of Sam Bankman-Fried, the disgraced founder of FTX. What began as a crypto empire fueled by idealism and innovation devolved into one of the largest financial frauds in modern history.

Through storytelling and real-time psychological analysis, we trace how Sam Bankman-Fried weaponized his image, manipulated public trust, and orchestrated a fraud so massive it brought the entire cryptocurrency industry to its knees. Was he a criminal mastermind — or a delusional gambler who believed his own myth?

This is the story of deception disguised as altruism… and the billions that vanished in its shadow.
