According to CoinMeta, the former CEO Constance Wang stated that the trailer for Netflix regarding the collapse of FTX made her feel uneasy within the first 30 seconds, so she stopped watching it. Wang criticized the portrayal of her former colleague in the series as not reflecting her personal experiences, especially the depiction of the CEO Caroline Ellison of Alameda Research. Wang once worked at FTX, which collapsed in November 2022 due to the misappropriation of customer funds, resulting in a shortage of $8.9 billion for customers. Netflix's eight-episode series "Altruists" will have its global premiere on November 19, 2026.
