When Mt. Gox collapsed in the early months of 2014, it marked one of the largest financial heists in history – yet no one knew who was responsible for the hack. With billions of dollars missing and thousands of angry creditors demanding justice, the pressure was on to find the criminals behind it. In this mini-documentary, I tell the story of Mt. Gox. From its troubled beginnings to the masterminds behind its downfall.
