I was enjoying the conversation and found it interesting. However, at the end, you made a false statement or mistake that is easily verifiable, which makes it difficult for me to trust anything else that was said. Specifically, you mentioned that Argentina shut down their central bank, which is not true. If you missed that fact, it can be quickly verified with a Google search.
So, fun to watch if you are in the space. Not too much credibility.
Apart from that, how scary are the people who got involved on Bitcoin that early, and that's being polite.
Now I do not have more words IMDb, come on.

I didn't know much about Bitcoin before watching, but this documentary laid it all out in a way that was super easy to understand. They take something that can feel really complicated and break it down step by step, so even if you're not a tech expert, you'll get it. I loved how they didn't just talk about the tech but also how this could change the future of money for everyone. This is just the type of documentary that makes you think more about all the complexities of our society.
Another thing I really liked was how they brought in different voices from all over the world - experts, bitcoin critics. It wasn't just one-sided, which made it feel balanced. The visuals and graphics were also on point, really helped break down the complex stuff in a fun way. My only critique is that a couple of parts got a bit too deep into the technical side. The block size nerd wars being one of those moments. But I guess it was an important thing within the overall narrative.
I am not even going to mention the twist at the end to avoid spoilers, but boy did it give me chills. Loved all the forensic evidence, like in a mystery novel.
So if you've ever been curious about Bitcoin or just where the world's headed with all these new digital tools, you've gotta check this out. Well worth a watch!

Haters will hate, but "Electric Money" is a fun ride, especially the speculation around Peter Todd. If you want a history lesson, read a book. This was an exploration of human ingenuity, psychology, and survivalism. I watched it twice.
Captured in a Vox-style presentation, "Money Electric" is a cinematic gem that delves into Bitcoin's enigma with both intrigue and insight. Director Cullen Hoback crafts more than just a hunt for Satoshi Nakamoto; it's an exploration of cryptocurrency's impact on society. With stunning visuals and a haunting soundtrack, the film captivates while making you ponder over themes of identity, privacy, and the future of finance. It's not just for crypto fans but for anyone intrigued by how technology reshapes our world. A compelling watch that leaves you questioning, engaging, and inspired.

Money Electric was a unique ride with even more unique characters. The bad ratings are from people who disagree with the conclusion of the film, in my opinion. I wish it were a series! Feels like there was so much more I wanted to learn about and people I wanted to follow. I really enjoyed how my opinion changed as I learned more clues, and I found myself wondering why some of these folks would even agree to be a part of this in the first place. I think they're all clever people, and they enjoy the game just as much as the audience enjoys watching them play it. I'd recommend the film, and tell you just to enjoy it.
Full of colorful characters, the documentary is an entertaining introduction to the world of bitcoin, and the mystery surrounding its anonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto.
For those of us who are uninitiated, I think the film provides the needed context to understand the basic ideas behind bitcoin, cryptocurrency, and why it matters in a world dominated by fiat currency. It goes into some interesting history, such as the Blockchain Wars. It's fun to get a glimpse into the fascinating characters that inhabit the bitcoin world, from cypherpunks, to politicians and even a prince.
The film closes on an investigation into the true identity of Satoshi. As a bitcoin outsider, I found the conclusion to be compelling and plausible. Among the bitcoin initiated, it is likely to be hotly debated.
