that makes sense, sounds like it wasn’t the concern for at least your group. He does describe it as “The rest of the management team was horrified and quit in a huff, loudly telling the investors that Bankman-Fried was dishonest and reckless”, so unless there were multiple waves of management quitting it sounds like the book conflated multiple stories.
Just to clarify, it seems that “The rest of the management team was horrified and quit in a huff, loudly telling the investors that Bankman-Fried was dishonest and reckless” is from Matt Levine, not from Michael Lewis.
I’m quickly skimming the relevant parts of Going Infinite, and it seems to me that Lewis highlights other issues as even more relevant than the missing $4M
Unrelated — I really like this comment + this other comment of yours as good examples of: “I notice the disagreement you are having is about an empirical and easily testable question, let me spend 5 min to grab the nearest data to test this.” (I really admire / value this virtue <3 )
