I am a believer in Bitcoin and lover of any documentary that talks about how important it is in today's world of corrupt money and banking systems. That being said, This one takes it a step further and really explains how the banks make "magic money" with the federal reserve to keep things moving. I can honestly say for anyone who still believes in the dollar they really need to see this. Even if you do not believe in bitcoin you should should really watch this. This documentary is more about the state of our countries financial affairs. It is definitely worth an hour of your time.

This film does a brilliant job of making the point why Bitcoin is a necessary entity in our modern existence. People need options...people need a bonafide way to hold their governments accountable, and this film shows why bitcoin is that tool of accountability. It's short, sweet, and doesn't skip a beat. This film is a must watch and must show. Sit down and dig in. And, Optimus Prime does the narration...j/k, but seriously go watch it. If you are your friends have any friends that have gone completely bonkers over bitcoin, then this film will show you why. It isn't heavy on the technical jargon and makes bitcoin a very approachable topic of interest. You will leave this film with a much better understanding for the need of a digital economy.

This documentary takes a sobering look at the central role that money plays in the world. It is not just a lesson on the near- limitless potential of Bitcoin and blockchain based technology, but it is fundamentally a film about money and exchange. The film tells the story of money and bitcoin by tracing the origins of money back to the age of barter. From here, through use of various forms of footage and clever editing, the film tells stories of power, control and deceit. It traces the rise of the Medici and others through the history of banking and commerce. The End Of Money is as enjoyable as it is informative. It uses economic, political and cultural history to place bitcoin into a context that does much to explain its importance. This film is perfect for anyone looking to understand bitcoin and what the central and commercial banks have done to our money. Enlightening and shocking.

We designed the documentary in a way that non techies and non Bitcoiners are introduced to the topic. we aimed to explain the history of money and to show what is wrong with the current financial system before explaining the innovation of the blockchain. both pros and cons are discussed in this documentary which features a long list of interviewees including journalists, entrepreneurs, economists and Bitcoin experts.Also, the film is designed to still be accurate in a year or two. There are few references to current news items or the exchange rate. Instead we focus on the fundamentals of money, and the Bitcoin technology.
