Cool documentary!

Funny how Voorhees - the libertarian - manages to find a jacket, whereas almost all the rest of the "regulation is good" crew wear 2-buttons-undone checked shirts. It's like the most conservative peeps in bitcoin dress down, whereas the liberals dress up.

Wow, congratulations! Excellent documentary and even more excellent the idea of SQ1.TV.

All success in the world! It's a niche market, for sure, but so is National Geographic. Kudos!

I wasn't really thrilled with the pro regulation conservative angle either.

It boils down to trust and choice...

1. we refuse any and all measure of regulation and taxation, and thus trust the anonymous option of trading online

2. we welcome regulation and taxation, and trust the government and banking cartel to take care of us

3. we find some happy middle ground where we come up with a bitcoin network "constitution" of sorts that serves as an agreement for btc to use their services and that provides that the services never allow a government seizure or a bank stranglehold or unnecessary fees etc. to take place, and put them on a public reputation system that can't be artificially tweaked.

If 3 or something similar isn't going to happen, then it boils down to putting trust in strangers with your money or putting trust in strangers posing as a central authority who have long since established their reputation for criminal enterprises and ripping off the citizens.

I'm so going for option 1.

Regulation of governments and banks needs to be the regulation imposed...not the other way around.

"Satoshi" did not solve the double-spend problem. David Chaum solved the double spend problem with DigiCash back in the 1990s. Bitcoin is DigiCash with a distributed transaction log.
