The teams behind "Tiger King" and the Fyre Festival documentary "FYRE" are joining forces to produce a new series for Netflix based on the true-life story of Ilya "Dutch" Lichtenstein and Heather Morgan, who were arrested this week and stand accused of conspiring to launder around $4.5 billion in Bitcoin. The government seized $3.6 billion of that total.
Netflix announced today it has green-lit a documentary series about the couple, who allegedly tried to launder the ill-gotten funds from the 2016 Bitfinex hack, one of the largest exchange breaches in Bitcoin history.
This is the company's latest foray into crypto-related crime. Last year, the streaming giant announced the release of a new film set for 2022, “Trust No One: The Hunt for the Crypto King,” about the QuadrigaCX exchange, whose founder Gerald Cotten suddenly died while controlling the keys to users' wallets, leaving millions in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies lost.
TRUST NO ONE: THE HUNT FOR THE CRYPTO KING

On Tuesday, Lichtenstein and Morgan were arrested in New York and face fraud and money laundering charges for allegedly trying to gradually launder 120,000 BTC. Justice Department officials claim they did so via Bitcoin ATMs, altcoin transactions, and purchases of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The pair appeared in federal court on the day of their arrest and await a fresh bail hearing on Monday.
While Lichtenstein, founder of now-defunct blockchain startup Endpass, did not have an extensive profile on social media, Morgan did. The crypto "entrepreneur" was very active on TikTok and Instagram and until recently hosted a collection of NFTs on OpenSea. She also rapped under the name "Razzlekhan." Morgan, who served as Endpass CEO, also worked as a contributor at Forbes, where she wrote several articles, including one called "Protect Your Business from Cybercriminals."
On February 8, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced the arrest of Ilya Lichtenstein and Heather Morgan on charges of conspiracy to launder cryptocurrency stolen during the 2016 Bitfinex hack, and conspiracy to defraud the United States. The story has captured mainstream fascination this week like few other crypto stories do, in particular because people have been fascinated with the alleged culprits, who showed off their New York City social lives and rapped on Instagram and TikTok. As Bit...
Chris Smith, who directed the documentary "FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened" and served as executive producer on "Tiger King," will direct and executive produce the new series alongside Nick Bilton. Bilton produced the Elizabeth Holmes documentary "The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley" and wrote the book "American Kingpin," about the hunt for Silk Road creator Ross Ulbricht.
If Morgan and Lichtenstein are convicted, they face up to 25 years in prison.
A list of 220 of the top holders of President Donald Trump’s official Solana-based meme coin (TRUMP) was headed by Tron founder Justin Sun, the crypto billionaire confirmed via social media on Monday.

The top 25 “VIP” holders, including Sun, also receive access to an exclusive reception and special tour alongside the dinner....
Bitcoin ETFs have seen their best day of trading since the start of May, with smaller funds enjoying healthy inflows.

Meanwhile, the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB)—in fourth place after the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust—clocked inflows of $155 million, with the two funds between them accounting for more than half of the funds invested...
A divisive proposal to rebrand Bitcoin’s base unit is gaining momentum on social media after Twitter (now X) founder and longtime Bitcoin bull Jack Dorsey shared support on Sunday, racking up more than 1 million views collectively on posts promoting BIP 177. Authored by software developer John Carvalho, the Bitcoin Improvement Proposal, entitled “Redefine Bitcoin's Base Unit,” seeks to do just that—by shifting the way the coin’s quantities are displayed, removing the decimal point and leading z...
