Golden Finance reported that according to "Going Infinite", a new book by Michael Lewis, author of "The Big Short", Sam Bankman-Fried met with the Prime Minister of the Bahamas to discuss repaying the country's entire national debt of about $10 billion. Lewis claimed that FTX moved its headquarters from Hong Kong to the Bahamas in 2021, partly due to the Chinese government's crackdown on cryptocurrencies. He added that SBF chose the Bahamas as the location for its fast-growing business because the country has implemented regulations that can legalize the crypto industry. According to the author, SBF has developed a plan to repay the Bahamian national debt, thereby improving the island's infrastructure and providing a more attractive working and living environment for the exchange's growing number of employees. The book states that the idea was discussed in a meeting with Bahamian Prime Minister Philip Davis.
