"Cryptopia: Bitcoin, Blockchains and the Future of the Internet"

[CryptoBry]

I am personally looking forward to viewing this coming film on Bitcoin, the people and the required resources to make the coin closer to the public hence more adoption. This documentary film is under the creative prowess of Torsten Hoffmann who gave us “Bitcoin: The End of Money As We Know It” years ago.

In his documentary, Hoffmann introduces and talks to some of the most high-profile names in the industry, including Bitcoin advocate Andreas Antonopoulos, Blockstream CSO Samson Mow, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, Litecoin co-founder Charlie Lee, Xapo CEO Wences Casares, and many other industry leaders and influencers.

“Cryptopia: Bitcoin, Blockchains and the Future of the Internet” will first be shown to a group of people (crypto enthusiasts, I supposed) in Sydney, Australia Monday 21 October under the Spark Festival banner.

We can all come to Australia or better wait for the said documentary to be shown somewhere online...

I think a lot of people are waiting for the release of the film on the Internet. I am sure that this will be a great way to get people acquainted with Bitcoin, increase confidence and popularize the coin.

yikes, not loving the name. "cryptopia" doesn't have the best connotations around these parts given all the people they left high and dry.

it doesn't look super interesting either. andreas, samson mow, charlie lee.......i'll be amazed if it's not like every other documentary that came before it.

Funny to hear that from an exchange which has scammed themselves and are now looking for revival in cryptocurrencies. They are right but exchanges like them are actually spoiling the name of cryptocurrencies in general.

[NeuroticFish]

Woah. I opened the thread to see what does the old & dead Cryptopia exchange tells about .. the future of the internet?
Strange name indeed. But I am looking forward to watch the documentary and, obviously, tell others about it  

[ChrisPop]

I'm looking forward to this documentary. The crypto space needs these kind of crypto advocates who militate for the adoption of this technology. The creation of a "cryptopia" is the ultimate goal of implementing Bitcoin in our society. My vision is for it to become the universal world currency.

[blckhawk]

It's interesting to see efforts made to discuss cryptocurrencies to the general public. That's why I'm really positive about bitcoin's success in the future years or even decades. We are step by step, closer to a world who has adopted bitcoin to be accepted as a method of payment. We are still in the early stage, more technologies would still develop in different aspects including modern payment methods. It's not quick, but at least we know that it's getting more relevant in the current age.

[Oasisman]

Woah! I really thought these people and the film was associated with the recently closed NZ based cryptocurrency exchange "Cryptopia", except I realized this documentary is going to be held in Australia.

They should've picked another title for their film. Anyway, It's good to see more documentary and films that tackles about cryptocurrency and Bitcoin, as it helps widen the adoption and recognition globally.

Indeed, it keeps on improving despite of some issues and problems bitcoin had faced through the years. As it keeps on getting accepted by different countries, a lot of people are getting curious about how bitcoin works. A documentation would help to make people analyze bitcoin main purpose and how we can use it particularly these days that some business already use bitcoin as a payment. I'm not familiar with it but i'm excited to watch it because I know that it can help me and it will enlighten me.

I have seen a lot of documentaries and this one is going to be one of the best documentaries about Bitcoin and Blockchain, I hope it will be seen in the public preferably on Youtube, we need a documentary from time to time, as condition of adoption in Cryptocurrency is changing rapidly and every year there is a new milestone happening, if we have  one each year we have a chronicle of what happened in a given year.

[Jating]

Of course, who wouldn't want to miss this documentary? At least it will be a breath of fresh air from the thousands of crypto influencers on Youtube. But I would agree about the catchy title though, and perhaps it was really intention to catch the attentions of non-coiners.

And I'm not surprised that they choose the perfect venue, Australia, as we all know that Australia is one of the friendliest bitcoin countries out there.

[Mandoy]

The title was good except for the word Cryptopia. Me and my friends have been a victim of cryptopia and up to today we still cannot withdraw our funds. There are many complains against cryptopia but we have no choice but to wait. I do hope they remove the word cryptopia from the title since it will create some misunderstandings and criticism. But looking at the speakers I am sure that this documentary will be great except that I hope they remove cryptopia from the title.

really fun at the moment that still looks I think only roger ver, to date they are still many active in some places but I only see roger ver who often appear and give statements in the form of information or just simply updating market conditions.

[BrewMaster]

i could have gotten excited if the list of those appearing in the video didn't contain Roger Ver and Vitalik Buterin. i really don't think these people understand or even care what bitcoin is all about. they have proven that they only care about their own power in the scene and the money they can make from the "hype".

How can someone do a documentary on crypto and then not google the name of their film just to see if it was used before by anyone? And f they did, how it didn't cross their mind that it would be confused with the infamous scam exchange? Perhaps the author's target audience is non-crypto people who wouldn't know about it, so they won't notice anything.

I wouldn't want to see them either, but the author is probably an outsider to crypto, so we can't expect from him to know all the nuances of crypto community. Let's just hope that he won't give any exposure to Craig Wright.

oh shit, i didn't even remember Craig Wright! more like out of sight, out of mind as it seems like these days the drama with this scammer has ended and he is now a footnote in the history of bitcoin as an idiot who tried to fool others but failed

i should also have said that this video has Andreas Antonopoulos which should automatically increase the quality of the final product by a lot.

[lobat999]

I hope that documentary will be comprehensive enough to tackle  other crypto issues such as crypto security, government regulations, scam projects defrauding people with their hard earned money, etc.,  and could also give us more useful insights into this industry.

At least I'm hoping it will be projected in a balanced and objective point of view so that maybe people will hopefully one day would consider adopting this emerging technology.

Same here bruh! I opened the thread thinking that Cryptopia is back may be with a new and revamped version but found it's something totally different.
I wonder why the term 'Cryptopia' got in there at the first place as it has nothing to do with the documentary. They could have easily come up with better terms or may be they didn't do their research well with the term 'Cryptopia'.

[target]

When I also read the title I thought this thread is about the Cryptopia exchange and their comeback.
Of all title in the world, they could pick the worse they can think of but not the once that brought bad luck already. But I'm hoping though that this documentary will also make people learn bot just bitcoin but cryptocurrency in its entirety. If those interviewed guys pay certain amount to be featured in the docu, then all these will just be another BS.

[rosezionjohn]

I'm puzzled by the excitement by some people here 
I'll probably be watching the film a month or two after it's release if it won't cost me a cent or sat.

They should rename their documentary title, i was thinking it's made by "Cryptopia" exchange

I think everyone did.
