Director/Producer: Torsten Hoffmann Release Date: May 7, 2020

Severe price volatility and the "internal civil wars" within the crypto community regarding scaling and governance (e.g., the Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash split).

The documentary frames Bitcoin's creation by Satoshi Nakamoto as a direct response to the 2008 financial crisis, aiming to democratize finance and depoliticize money. Five years after his first film on the topic, Bitcoin: The End of Money as We Know It , Hoffmann revisits the space to see if the original promise of a "trustless" utopia has been realized or if the industry is repeating the mistakes of the traditional financial systems.
