Netflix’s documentary about the now-defunct crypto exchange QuadrigaCX founder has been released and the crypto community viewers of the documentary have expressed their reactions on Twitter.
Trust No One: The Hunt for the Crypto King, a new Netflix crypto documentary, was released to considerable anticipation on Wednesday. The film is based on the founder of the now-defunct crypto firm QuadrigaCX’s mysterious demise.
The crypto exchange’s founder is said to have died while on a trip to India. He also brought with him the location of the keys to crypto wallets containing roughly $250 million in bitcoins.
The strange disappearance/death of QuadrigaCX founder sparked unofficial investigations and a slew of conspiracy theories. The Netflix investigative series tries to shed some light on the high-profile crypto issue that continues to perplex many people.
The crypto swindler documentary is based on the investigative thriller “DON’T F*CK WITH CATS,” and audiences appeared to be anticipating its debut. As one Twitter user put it:
“Watched it at the gym tonight. Got only 1/2 way through, but it‘s already insane: Biggest red flag is faking death with Crohn‘s disease, seriously?! You don’t need an MD to know Crohn’s disease rarely leads to death!”
Another expressed a similar view and said:
“What a crazy story. Dig up that grave!”
According to a user who claimed to have used the QudrigaCX in the past, he detected shady conduct early on and got money out on time. Following his viewing of the documentary, he wrote:
“I had a lot of coins on that exchange. But one day I sensed something strange with the way the trades were being handled. Having set up bloomberg systems for AIMCO, i had a good feeling for how these exchanges should work. Right then and there I pulled all the coins out.”
While the investigative documentary is entertaining and does not necessitate any prior understanding of crypto, many in the crypto community who have followed the topic closely or have been affected by the exchange’s demise found it to be highly satisfying.
Mike Oltoff, the founder and CEO of Coin card, stated that many of his friends, including himself, appeared in the documentary.
“It‘s so weird to see a bunch of my friends in a documentary, but they all did great! Funny enough, I cameo on this documentary too in the background of one of the videos about Patryn.”
The majority of viewers agreed with the conspiracy ideas regarding the founder faking his death to get away with millions of dollars worth of consumers’ bitcoin.
