Alameda Head Caroline on Bankruptcy: "Feels Great to End It in Some Way"

In the book "Going Infinite," Alameda Head Caroline talks about the downfall of FTX:

"I've just been increasingly afraid of this day, it's been haunting me for a long time, and now that it's actually happening, it feels great to end it in some way. 'Getting through it feels weirdly good, I've been scared for a long time, so it feels like a huge weight off my shoulders."

CoinDesk as the Source? CZ Waiting for This Day?

After reading the book, an American engineer believes Michael Lewis hinted that SBF had told Middle Eastern officials he didn't want to operate where Binance was operating. Shortly after, CoinDesk published a report on Alameda's insolvency. Michael Lewis suggests Binance founder Changpeng Zhao may have received this information and waited a long time to take action.

Furthermore, the book implies that the report on Alameda's insolvency may have come from an inadvertent leak by Alameda Head Caroline to relieve her stress and emotionally retaliate against SBF. "I have very strong romantic feelings for Sam. Why is that a problem? These feelings consume a lot of my brain space," Caroline wrote.
