There's only one rule in the world of crypto and bitcoin, trust no one. $250 million of bitcoin randomly disappears from QuadrigaCX, once Canada's largest crypto exchange, and the only person who can get it back mysteriously dies. Greed is a matter of life and death in this true crime documentary about the rise and fall of QuadrigaCX, the mysterious death of its founder Gerry Cotton, and the victims left behind to pick up the pieces.

    Unfortunately there will be many more stories like this one

    Over the next few years this same story will be told again many times, when you allow an international Ponzi scheme to go on for so long and I'm talking about cryptocurrency as a whole, unregulated, this is what happens. There's many exchanges across the world that have popped up and down in no time claiming to be regulated by FCA etc but ultimately until serious regulation is in place, this space will remain the Wild West.

    The guy that transferred 400k in one transaction without doing any testing on that exchange needs his head testing.

    Good documentary, if your not familiar with the world of crypto watch it, it shouldn't necessarily put you off investing, do your due diligence before you do.

    The sister is as transparent as a pane of glass, don't believe a word she says.

    For what it's worth, I doubt the death certificate is worth the paper it's written on, certainly not as much as the doctor received for producing it.

    Watch out for Crypto scammers here!

    This is a solid documentary that provides simple enough information for would be victims of crypto scams. Watch out for the poor ratings given here by so called "experts" that want to trash this documentary in order to maintain the credibility of a continuous "decentralised" crypto business scam fuelled by greed.

    I am a techie with 30 + years in the industry and I can assure you that the chances you will be scammed in the crypto world is very, very high.

    Btw, are you a believer that the world will have a decentralised financial economy? Keep dreaming. The bits and coins of the darknet will continue to rejoice at your naïveté.

    Doesn't clear up the mystery...

    I watched this, and while I found it entertaining, it raised more questions than answers. I can't fathom why they didn't interview or at least investigate in more depth certain people. No interview with the reluctant wife I can understand, but what about Cotten's parents? Was the shady doctor the only staff at the hospital that the reporter talked to? I can think of a dozen questions that go unanswered. Ultimately, this documentary was a bit disappointing.

    Interesting watch although unnecessarily speculative

    Being a documentary/movie made on cryptocurrency, this is sure to get a lot of views. Once again netflix goes the route of speculative stories and tries to make something more confusing that cutting to the chase.

    The good thing about this is that they did not drag this out unnecessarily and wrapped it up in 1.30 hours. Worth a watch but don't expect a lot.

    More details on conspiracy theory

    This documentary focuses on the conspiracy theory on the death of the founder rather than his wrong doings. They reason for investors losing money is explained at the end in just 5 mins. Rest of the time is spent on new conspiracy theories. One of the highlights is the person who wanted to save 2% bank charges and put all his money on this fraud company.
