Anyone else think Bitcoin's history is perfect for a blockbuster movie?
. Satoshi releases bitcoin (Satoshi's face would never be revealed) --2008ish . We then go into the lives of the first bitcoiners, Gavin Anderson, Hal Finney, etc --2008 to 2009 . Satoshi leaves Bitcoin unexpectedly and we go into a period where the rest of the bitcoiners have to cope with his leaving --2010 . We then follow Gavin Anderson working on Bitcoin and meeting the CIA --2010 . Mark Karpeles and Charlie Shrem are introduced(BitInstant and MtGox) --2010 to 2012 . The plot revolves around these characters trying to uplift Bitcoin and get adoption, such as making the TBF --2012 to 2013 . However, things go awry when Charlie Shrem is charged by the Feds -- 2013 . Bitcoin's current ATH occurs in November 2013 as the price peaks at $1200 per coin, now the movie gets social and we see them celebrating, etc 2013 . MtGox falls under along with Mark Karpeles --2014 . A large amount of companies gain interest in Bitcoin and start accepting it ---2014 . The Bitcoin Foundation falls and Gavin Anderson and other developers go to work for MIT labs --2015 . The movie ends with the Hard Fork for increased blocksize going through and cheers to the revolutionary future of Bitcoin . The ending credits show the future of Bitcoin, it becomes a standard currency and largely accepted around the world --2020+
That's my thoughts on the first Bitcoin movie. A 2nd one would feature Satoshi Nakamoto's life(face revealed), what led him/them to create bitcoin, the actual creation of Bitcoin, it's release, and the ending would be a cliffhanger on what Satoshi did after leaving in 2010.

That's far too much content to put in one movie. The Silk Road story is getting its own entire movie so the above would be enough material for ten films though most of it would be pretty boring and not exactly 'blockbuster' movie quality. That's my thoughts on the first Bitcoin movie. A 2nd one would feature Satoshi Nakamoto's life(face revealed), what led him/them to create bitcoin, the actual creation of Bitcoin, it's release, and the ending would be a cliffhanger on what Satoshi did after leaving in 2010.
How would anyone be able to write a movie on satoshi when next to nothing is known about him? Maybe if he gets exposed the blanks could be filled but at the moment we know nothing about him personally before or after he created bitcoin.

i'm sure most people here would love such movie, but the fact is that there need to be a very decent amount of money to be invested. demand for such movie outside the bitcoin community is low.

I would like a DaVinci type style mystery, full of murder and greed. Satoshi being the good guy and his co-developers being the bad guys. They all start with good intentions to make the world a better place and then greed turn them against each other. The old bank robbers with a twist. ^Ha Ha Ha^
In the end, nobody gets the coins, when Satoshi is murdered and he/she takes the private keys to the grave.

I'd love to know how you make a movie that will inevitably be set almost entirely on the internet (or dark web in the case of SR). Has any movies like this already been made? Can't imagine some geek sat at his computer clicking on a keyboard will be very exciting.

You could argue that The Social Network is largely Internet-based, but it has non-Internet stuff happening as well. It's just a matter of what you focus on.

'the fifth estate' about wikileaks was done nicely. I think a bitcoin movie could be just like that. Or go all fictional and add some big explosions and wild car chases in sanfransisco where the protagonist apparently just happened to be

All of that would be pure speculatiom though as we do not know who Satoshi is, his motives for creating Bitcoin or what he is upto right now.

And this movie is about BTCitcoin, so it will be hard to understand By the looks of it he's thinking a Hollywood blockbuster so it'll be the story of bitcoin or a 'based on true story' type drama. I'd love to know how you make a movie that will inevitably be set almost entirely on the internet (or dark web in the case of SR). Has any movies like this already been made? Can't imagine some geek sat at his computer clicking on a keyboard will be very exciting.
You could argue that The Social Network is largely Internet-based, but it has non-Internet stuff happening as well. It's just a matter of what you focus on. That was more looking at the drama of the beginnings. Most of it didn't actually concern the website but all the trouble surrounding it.

I would like a great documentary, better than what we have now, but there are tons of documentaries of Bitcoin being worked on at the moment. An actual live action move would be great. The social network made Facebook a great deal of advertisement.

nice idea i love it, and i really think that soon or later someone will do it, the movie will have lot of content. the problem is, how will end that movie? and who rolled the movie? because i dont want that ppl who dont like the BTC world do it, you know... It's better to make this a documentary than a movie.
not a bad idea too, both ideas are ok for me

That was more looking at the drama of the beginnings. Most of it didn't actually concern the website but all the trouble surrounding it. That's kind of my point. A movie about the technical features of Bitcoin would be rather boring and short, or it might become a lecture. If you want a movie that attracts the masses, you need a story.

And this movie is about BTCitcoin, so it will be hard to understand I was thinking more of a drama movie. You'd have to fill in and and add creative twists to it, especially concerning Satoshi since we don't know much(anything) about him/them/her. It'd be like those movies based off a true story.

"Rise & Rise of BTC" is great, but left off during the huge value peak in 2013.
Face it, we all hate it, but the Paycoin / Garza story has it all!
