Bankman-Fried playing League of Legends while company burned

After being crowned the "King Of Crypto" for eight days, Sam Bankman-Fried was made bankrupt, had to step down as CEO of his own company and faces federal charges. The BBC seems to imply that it was his addiction to League of Legends might have had something to do with it.

Bankman-Fried became a multibillionaire in five years and was the poster boy for those who thought they could become wealthy without doing real work. However, listening to his online interviews, you can hear him playing a computer game simultaneously.

"I'm infamous for playing League of Legends while on phone calls," he admitted in February 2021. Playing the team fantasy battle game was his way to get his mind to switch off from running two companies trading billions of dollars a day. "Some people drink too much; some gamble. I play League," he said.
