Sam Bankman-Fried may face serious legal jeopardy and years in prison over the collapse of his FTX crytocurrency exchange, but for the time being, he’s enjoying some semblance of his privileged upbringing by living under house arrest in his parents’ spacious Palo Alto home.

On the leafy one-acre property, which a pricey private security firm has turned into a “heavily guarded fortress,” the onetime billionaire wunderkind has reportedly met with famed “Big Short” and “Moneyball” author Michael Lewis about the possibility of turning his life and infamous adventures in cryptocurrency into a biopic, as the New York Post reported. On the downside, the 30-year-old accused fraudster has faced death threats and has submitted to wearing an electronic ankle monitor, the Post also reported.
