Netflix is set to release a new comedy movie titled "One Attempt Remaining." The film revolves around a couple who strike it rich in the crypto world but face a hilarious dilemma—they forgot the password to their digital wallet. Jennifer Garner is slated to star in this rom-com, which is based on a true story that's both amusing and infuriating.

The Plot

A couple wins big in the crypto market but can't recall the password to their digital wallet. Now, they're in a race against time to remember it before they lose millions. Adding to the tension, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) gives them just 48 hours to crack the code.

Crypto in Hollywood

This isn't the first time crypto has made its way into Hollywood. Movies like "Money Plane" and documentaries like "Trust No One: The Hunt for the Crypto King" have already explored the chaotic world of digital currency. However, "One Attempt Remaining" might be the first to turn a crypto disaster into a rom-com.

Real-Life Inspirations

The story is inspired by real-life crypto blunders:

  • Stefan Thomas forgot the password to his IronKey hard drive, which held 7,002 Bitcoin (over $640 million at today's value). He's made eight failed attempts to unlock it.
  • James Howells, a Welsh entrepreneur, lost a hard drive containing 8,000 Bitcoin. He believes it's in a landfill and has been fighting for years to dig it up.
