“Finally—here’s the book that goes right into the heart of the cryptocurrency cyclone. In this riveting account, Chow does something miraculous—he actually explains this crazy industry before describing in forensic detail how it all went bust.”

– Christopher Leonard, New York Times Bestselling Author of Kochland and The Lords of Easy Money

“In its short lifespan, cryptocurrency has gone through booms and busts and booms again. Trying to capture its story at any given moment is like trying to catch water between your fingers. But in Cryptomania, Andrew Chow gives readers the inside story of the (mostly) men who drove the hype cycle to end all hype cycles, and left chaos and financial ruin in their wake. Read it to understand what crypto was supposed to be, what it became, and what could still happen.”

– Bryan Walsh, author of End Times

“Cryptomania is a page-turning adventure that manages to be smart, fun, damning and trenchant all at once - a globe-spanning roller-coaster ride that perfectly captures the surreal rise and fall of the world of crypto. Whether you care about crypto or just love a good story, even if you find the whole sordid saga somewhere between incomprehensible and appalling, this is the book for you.”

– —Molly Ball, author of Pelosi

“Deftly reported and masterfully told, the stories of greed and graft in Cryptomania play out like allegories for our age. Andrew Chow knows this crooked terrain inside and out, and it shows on every page.”

– —Simon Shuster, author of The Showman

“An engaging, in-depth account of crypto’s digital gold rush, Cryptomania brings you down the rabbit hole, exposing an idealistic industry undone by fraud, corruption and a whole lot of greed.”

– —Kurt Wagner, author of Battle for the Bird
