Rigged from the Start

  • Exposing the SEC’s War on Crypto

    In 2020, the SEC sued Ripple Labs over XRP, the #3 cryptocurrency. The next day, the SEC chairman and top officials left for firms backing Ethereum, XRP’s rival.

    Led by attorney John E. Deaton, the XRP Army of retail investors launched a deep investigation—using FOIA requests, blockchain forensics, and video evidence—to expose DC’s revolving door.

    Whistleblower Steven Nerayoff reveals how Chinese influence shaped the Ethereum Foundation while U.S. politicians granted Ethereum a regulatory free pass—targeting XRP instead.

    Uncover the truth. Watch Rigged from the Start.

Reviews

Cat M: "Excellent doc... will make your blood boil seeing the government corruption all laid out like this!" ​Rotten Tomatoes

XRP 2: "Should be documentary of the year! Exposes the corruption and conflict of interest that US politicians had in promoting their favorite crypto project (ETH, a dying project), while they attacked ETH’s main competitor Ripple by dragging them to the court system for 4 years, greatly affecting the retail investors (holders of XRP). The Securities and Exchange Commission are supposed to protect the retail investors, but greatly affected them instead. Ripple won against the US SEC and it is the best 'David vs Goliath' story of all time. It exposes how politicians manipulate for their own financial gain. #ETHGATE" ​Rotten Tomatoes

Patrick E, RT: "Brilliant!!!! Jaw Dropping!! The lengths of which our Government will go for power and money will even surprise the most corrupt." ​Rotten Tomatoes

Chris M: "This film will leave viewers questioning the future of cryptocurrency, the role of government oversight, and ultimately, who stands to win or lose in this new financial frontier.” ​Rotten Tomatoes
