Old video, but still good to watch... I wonder how many of these guys are still into Bitcoin. Also good to see that it's hosted on Aljazeera, because it has a huge viewer base. It's actually amazing to think,

we are still standing after all the negative publicity we have had over the years. It makes you think, where we would have been, if it was not for the MtGox and Silkroad fiasco. Did Daniel send his kids

to college on his Bitcoins he mined with those rigs? Nice blast to the past... times when Gavin was still humble. Roll Eyes

The Rise and rise of Bitcoin

Daniel Mross is a computer programmer from Pittsburgh, who - along with balancing work, marriage, and raising three boys - spends much of his time involved in everything related to Bitcoin.

When he discovered the crypto-currency in 2011, it opened up an uncharted world of new possibilities for him to explore.

"It's fascinating to imagine what it means to have global decentralised money," he says.

In this two-part documentary, we go inside the complex world of Bitcoin to explore the social and political impact of an open-source digital currency and ask if it could create a monetary paradigm shift that will forever change the world.
