I've been trading crypto for about three years and I saw the coverage this movie got in the Mail Online (UK tabloid). The film-makers were harrassed by some crypto trolls for making a film about Satoshi Nakamoto. So my interest was piqued. The movies has an interesting take on cryptocurrency and is ultimately supportive of it. There is documented evidence of the US government trying to control or influence Bitcoin so it is not far-fetched and the idea that worldwide adoption of cryptocurrency could weaken or destroy central banks is also not far-fetched. If you're into crypto and you have a sense of humour, you'll get this film. If you're some sort of crypto evangelist, maybe you won't get it. The deeper themes are also important and tie in nicely to the crypto theme. One moment brought a tear to my eye, which was where George and Martin come together at the end.
