The show arrives years after Bankman-Fried's conviction and failed appeal, suggesting continued public appetite for dramatized accounts of major financial scandals. Its framing of the FTX founders' ideology could shape how a broad audience understands the motivations behind one of crypto's largest frauds, beyond the courtroom record.
