Maybe a mainstream book debunking crypto would be a valuable contribution. In the past week many people have said "Why didn't anyone warn me about FTX?" There have been tons of warnings of course, but they came from places like Dirty Bubble Media that don't exactly have the Hollywood cachet of Michael Lewis. Maybe this time the message will get through.

(Or maybe it will be like War Dogs, pitching SBF as a lovable and quirky guy who somehow ended up on the wrong side of the law.)

Something tells me Michael Lewis is being paid to write the exact opposite of what you expect. They wouldn't let a non-believer to "embed" into their operation.
He's "being paid" (not by SBF) to write anything that will sell. I don't think that gives us any clues which way he's leaning.
