According to the report, Rinsch began acting erratically and missing production schedules shortly after receiving the funding, leading Netflix to believe there was no way the project could move forward.
Netflix spokesperson Thomas Cherian told The New York Times:
“After much time and effort, it became clear that Mr. Rinsch would never complete the project he had agreed to create, so we canceled the project.”
According to the report, Rinsch not only continued to invest in Dogecoin, but also made option bets on the stock market and purchased luxury items such as Rolls-Royce vehicles and a Ferrari.
However, his bet on Dogecoin paid off, giving him a whopping 575% return on his investment.
According to the report, Rinsch transferred $4 million to cryptocurrency exchange Kraken and purchased dog-themed memecoins worth just as much, ultimately liquidating his stash for a whopping $27 million in 2021.
“Thank you and God bless your cryptocurrency,” Rinsch wrote in an online chat with a Kraken representative, according to the Times.
