‍"The Max Extractor": Argentina's Crypto Scandal Inspires Gritty TV Drama Gabriel Haines has raised $150,000 for a TV pilot inspired by Argentina's controversial Libra meme coin saga. Titled "The Max Extractor," the show aims to offer a realistic portrayal of the crypto world, drawing parallels to "Breaking Bad" and "The Sopranos." The plot follows an entrepreneur facing ruin after leveraged crypto trading, leading to desperate and illicit actions. The protagonist is loosely based on Hayden Davis, who advised Argentine President Javier Milei on the Libra token, which resulted in an estimated $251 million in losses for traders. Haines emphasizes the need for authenticity, stating, "If you want to say that cryptocurrency is this shining horse, ‘an angel from on high,’ you’re bullshitting." Directed by Sullivan Slentz, the pilot is slated for completion by February. Backers include genzcash, Gabriel Shapiro (MetaLeX), Anil Lulla (Delphi Digital), and DeFiTuna. Haines plans to engage audiences with behind-the-scenes vlogs, aiming to make the complex blockchain world accessible and entertaining.
