If you’ve read this far then you know I’m no fan of cryptocurrency and the current Ponzi scheme around NFTs.
Of course, that’s nowhere near enough time to explain the obfuscated nature of digital currency but it would have served a little better to explain the significance of the Blockchain and how easy it is to manipulate and scam – if you have the right tools and means to do so. Netflix’s documentary is the perfect length for a story like this, although personally it would have been nice to have another 15 minutes or so to really explain the Blockchain and cryptocurrency. Believing Gerry faked his own death, they set out to recover the funds stolen from them. His death also takes the keys to unlock over $250 million left in his virtual vault, leaving many very, very shortchanged.Ī group of investors then take over the investigation, turning to internet sleuths as they dive deep into Gerry’s life, using both white hat (legal) and black hat (not so legal) ways of uncovering the truth. Not long after, Gerry ends up dead in India, presumably suffering the effects of Crohn’s disease. In its simplest form, this is a documentary about a cryptocurrency multimillionaire by the name of Gerry Cotten.Īfter founding the company QuadrigaCX, Canada’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, transferring Bitcoin to dollars and vice versa, Bitcoin started to crash. However, you don’t need to be completely clued up on crypto to become engrossed in this docufilm. The story here though isn’t broadly about NFTs and crypto as a whole, although I’d highly recommend Dan Olson’s documentary on YouTube called “Line Goes Up”if you want to know more about this potentially devastating future.
There’s a lot of foul play going on with “web3” as typified by the wonderfully uplifting web3isgoinggreat. Played out as a delightfully sinister blend of Tinder Swindler and Don’t F**k With Cats, this 90 minute documentary dives deep down a rabbit hole of distrust, murder and shock.įor anyone who has followed bitcoin, crypto or NFTs over the past years, Crypto and Crime synonymously skip happily together hand in hand. With a distinct lack of regulation and this massive Ponzi scheme circus sucking in celebrities to the current NFT craze, it comes as no surprise then to find a documentary like Crypto King. “Trust no one” seems to be a good quote for the Blockchain and Cryptocurrency as a whole. Trust No One – Especially Not In The Crypto Space
