  • Intresting but shows a flawed system

    So it explains how it works rather well, but bitcoin is just a useless fad powered by people who have very irrational fears of "the man", because they watched too many horrible movies. They activity premote it to buy drugs without consequences, yet if government wants to regulate it to stop it being a safe haven of criminals, oh god the government is suddenly a tyrant.

  • Great!

  • An hour and a half infomercial

    This "documentary" is basically an hour and a half long infomercial about bitcoins. While the film addressed the development of bitcoins, the one sided optimism was annoying. People in Sub Sahara are going to use bitcoins? Step away from the computer….

  • Amazing Doc!!

    This doc captures the excitement and hope of the early days of bitcoin. It's a time capsule we're lucky to have! Fascinating material.

  • If you don’t know, you probably should.

    Really well done. I didn't know much about Bitcoin. After watching this, I can't stop researching. I would like to be a miner.

  • The bit coin primer!

    A good overview of “the bit coin thing.” A bit propaganda-y in parts, but I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to know what bitcoin is all about.

  • Great intro to Bitcoin
