From a famous actor and an experienced journalist, a wildly
entertaining debunking of cryptocurrency, one of the greatest
frauds in history and on course for a spectacular crash. At the
height of the pandemic, TV star Ben McKenzie (The O.C., Gotham) was
the perfect mark for cryptocurrency: a dad stuck at home with some
cash in his pocket, worried about his family, armed with only the
vague notion that people were making heaps of money on something
he—despite a degree in economics—didn’t entirely understand.
Lured in by the promise of taking power from banks, possibly
improving democracy, and sure, a touch of FOMO, McKenzie dove deep
into blockchain, Bitcoin, and the various other coins and exchanges
on which they are traded. But after scratching the surface, he had
to ask, “Am I crazy, or is this all a total scam?” In Easy
Money, McKenzie enlists the help of journalist Jonathan Silverman
for a caper and exposé that points in shock to the climactic final
days of cryptocurrency now upon us. Weaving together stories of
average traders and victims, colorful crypto “visionaries,”
Hollywood’s biggest true believers, anti-crypto whistleblowers,
and government agents searching for solutions at the precipice of a
major crash, Easy Money is an on-the-ground look at a perfect storm
of 2008 Housing Bubble–level irresponsibility and criminal fraud
potentially ten times more devastating than Bernie Madoff.
