According to What’s on Netflix, the plot adds urgency through a notice from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The pair must retrieve $35 million within 48 hours before their claim expires.

The story mixes humor, tension, and a touch of romance as the couple works together under pressure to recover their shared fortune.

The concept mirrors real-life situations where forgotten passwords have left fortunes out of reach. One example is Stefan Thomas, a former Ripple executive, who misplaced the password to a hard drive holding 7,002 Bitcoin BTC $92,304.73 , worth about $640 million, when the story became public.

The encrypted drive erases its contents after ten failed attempts, and Thomas revealed he had already tried eight times. As of late last year, he had not said whether he ever recovered the coins.

Meanwhile, a statue of Satoshi Nakamoto, created by artist Valentina Picozzi, was recently placed at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). What did she say? Read the full story.
