[citation needed] He now serves as a personal advisor on matters related to cryptocurrency to Salvadoran president Nayib Bukele in connection to Bitfinex investment in the country, and Stacy claims to be employed by the government of El Salvador.

[13] The films include Rigged Markets,[14] Money Geyser,[15] Death of the Dollar,[16] Peaked,[17] Extraordinary Antics,[18] Savers vs Speculators,[19] Banking On It,[20] Private Finance or Public Swindle?

An episode broadcast in September 2011 featured an interview with comedian Roseanne Barr, who satirically stated that her solution to the financial crisis was to "bring back the guillotine".

The show ended in February 2022 after Keiser and Herbert resigned from RT and deleted previous pro-Russian statements in response to changes in the media landscape following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Describing the project, Keiser stated, "The Internet allows people, activists, from all over the world to gather, or swarm, and hit a company where it hurts most—in their stock price.

"[31] The Guardian newspaper described Keiser's Karmabanque hedge fund as a "fantastical scheme" and accused him of trying to exist "beyond the normal forces and controls of society".

"[33] In the Al-Jazeera short film Extraordinary Antics,[34] Keiser traveled to Milan and Venice to find out how Central Intelligence Agency station chief Robert Seldon Lady and his fellow CIA agents spent $500,000 on a procedure known as extraordinary rendition, an illegal practice that resulted in an Egyptian citizen, who had been granted asylum in Italy, being abducted and tortured in Cairo.

[40] Writing in The Guardian in December 2010,[41] Keiser suggested that the text "crash jp morgan buy silver" should be used as a googlebomb to virally promote the campaign.

Adweek magazine described Keiser as "the most visible character in an underground movement that has spurred hundreds of blog posts and videos, and played some small part in driving up the price of precious metals".

In response, Kevin Tsujihara, executive vice president of New Media at Warner Bros., commented that "Piracy.com" will be the victor if superior content is available on sites supported by advertisements.

[43] In 2005, Steven Milloy, the "Junk Science" commentator, demanded that Keiser be removed from the panel of the Triple Bottom Line Investing conference, where he was scheduled to appear.

Milloy accused Keiser of making threats against his organization[44] and petitioned sponsors Calvert Investments and KLD Research & Analytics to withdraw from the project.

The Atlantic magazine's The Wire website speculated that a Downfall parody video created to promote Keiser's campaign was implicated in the sacking of Grant Williams, the Asia equity trading head at J.P.
