Cryptopia: Bitcoin, Blockchains, and the Future of the Internet

It is a must see, eye-opening and entertaining movie about past, present and the future of crypto currencies and blockchain. It discusses all major political and development angles that cryptocurrencies are facing today.

Informative documentary if you want a quick summary of the history of the crypto so far. Doesn't really explain how blockchain works in a too technical way, so it's easy to understand.

I'm just tired of that style of documentary where the host/interviewer/journalist is just being filmed meandering through city crosswalks and shaking hands of 47 people who each say 5 seconds worth of interesting material related to the actual topic.

Nice to know that you traveled to Switzerland, Japan, UK, Germany, Argentina, etc. But what did it add to the content? Not much besides the fact that i know that some nuclear bunker doors in Switzerland are painted yellow. Thanks.

A very well balanced and easy to follow documentary that not only hears from the proponents of the space, but also its critics and controversial figures. The documentary opens the kimono to reveal many things newbies and even veterans in the space may have not known. A recommended watch for those curious about Bitcoin and its hardcore fan base.

Taking a neutral position on both crypto and blockchain tech, this doco deep dives the history of the underlying tech and then explores the present and future potential. One comment I got from everyone we interviewed last night was the love of honestly and transparency in the doco - it's true that crypto and blockchain have evolved from mysterious roots and basements and gone through a hype and collapse phase in 2017-19. It's also true that major corporate and political players have at the same time cast shade on the grass roots coins and startups whilst also invested millions and branched internal "skunkworks" ops in their organizations in exploring this tech for their own "private" blockchain purposes. What is clear in this doco is that the underlying idea of blockchain and what it seeks to achieve - transaction speed, low cost and high efficiency; and transparency and irrevocable truth from a distributed ledger - these core concepts are in themselves the promise of blockchain theology and the kinds of modern use cases that an incredibly tech connected world, growing off the back of leaps in computing/mobile and internet accessibility, can leverage for all kinds of purposes.
