Topic: The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin - Full Movie | Download | Watch Online for Free - page 6. (Read 30778 times)

This movie is for people who already know bitcoin, I don't think that anybody who doesn't already have some interest in bitcoin would watch a 90min documentary.

I think the reason the movie was made available for free was because it should help spread the word about bitcoin and hopefully increase adoption in bitcoin (and the price). If he owns a lot of bitcoin (from mining in it's early days) then he will indirectly profit this way.

The dangers of downloading the torrent and then 'donating' bitcoin is that it is very difficult to determine what the 'correct' address to send the money to is. This presents an opportunity for scammers

Because he has money he should use his time and money to make a movie for your enjoyment for free? If he fails to do that you should feel justified in stealing it?

Well, I have money. I suppose I should get my ass over to your house and wash your car. Don't worry about the supplies, I'll pay for the soap and wax.

Havent seen this one yet.. But I will very soon.

Watched it yesterday. It was very good. Sounds like buddy has a LOT of BTC if he's been mining since like 2010, and prob should have put the movie out for free so everyone can see it. Its on thepiratebay if you want to download it.

Yes... this video has been removed from YouTube. I can confirm it as well. It is good if someone can upload the Full Movie to YouTube, Vimeo and DailyMotion at a time.

Yeah, I just checked the link, and I am in the USA...

It appears that the video is NO longer available at that link on youtube... looks like it was removed from the youtube...

For some, gonna have to go back to the piratebay torrent, I suppose...

I'm not sure but here in my country the video ( that I've posted the link) is not more available to see , can you check please?

I just finished watching it.  Very good.  I was in it too.  Well, my ear was.  Pause at 58:35.  I'm the guy in the blue shirt with the white stripe.  I don't think I went to Gavin's talk so it must be an audience shot from a different talk. 

BTC-e is the next one to pack up and run away with everyones BTC.

I wish they could have tried to get some coverage on BTC-e, since they are so elusive

Why would you comment on the significance of the "Official Trailer" when there are links in this thread to the full movie?


Here is the Youtube link to the full version:


Why NOT watch the whole documentary and comment on that?

I just watched the "Official Trailer" and it is amazing, thank you for spreading the word about The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin.

Yesterday I downloaded from the pirate bay torrent, and the quality from the torrent was good.

Here’s my quickie layman’s review:  The documentary presents a good overview of bitcoin history... but surely seems to emphasize that bitcoin remains far from being out of the woods in its development and its path forward.. including various depictions of the sad aspects of various bitcoin business failings, such as Gox, Trading Hill and BitInstant. 

The protagonist, Dan Mross, seemed as if he was in real positive spirits in the beginning of the filming which started in mid-2012; however, as time passed, the movie seemed to show several periods in which his enthusiasm waned and turned somewhat downward towards the end (which seemed to be mostly in 2013 with a few clips in early 2014).  Part of the negative consequences with D. Mross was that he seemed to be losing good money on various BTC mining set-ups, and even referring to the fact that in mid-2012, he had sent 2,700 BTC to Aisics in order to buy some mining equipment (that was while BTC prices were well below $20).  In fact, the film did NOT really follow up with specific discussions of those difficulties which seemed to cause a bit stressed D. Mross to get involved with mining and then have various set backs and it seems that he even came to the realization that it may have been better just to buy coins and sit on them rather than to spend so much time and energy attempting to mine.  That issue was NOT really fleshed out.   

Also, there seemed to be some lingering depression, especially through the end of the film, regarding the failures of some businesses and the real tangible impacts on real living people.

I liked that the editors of the film juxtaposed scenes within, yet they largely kept the presentation in chronological order.   At the same time, it felt to me as if the title of the documentary was NOT quite correct because even though there was good news contained throughout the documentary, the end (and even the current state of bitcoin) does NOT seem like a "rise and rise" - in spite of Bitcoin prices still remaining more than 3x last year's prices.

With various BTC business failings and some questions regarding the role of governmental regulations, there seemed to have been some negative emphases and even unresolved dilemmas that were left open in the end of the film. 

I believe that the producers and editors could have improved upon the ending of the documentary by balancing some of the negative BTC developments and putting together a few of the positive BTC stories that are quite wide-spread in the current bitcoin space, including pointing out some of the great ongoing developments such as providing statistics concerning adoption, merchants, exchanges, liquidation opportunities, etc.

Overall the film was put together very well with several stimulating visuals  and fairly important and relevant discussions and in-person interviews with people who have been serving as movers and shakers in the bitcoin space.  Funny that the movie captures in time and without always knowing for sure about the actual intentions of the involved persons but realizing that these were real people with real human difficulties to survive in the BTC space, including trying to fit their real eating and sleeping needs into their BTC focused schedules.

I have seen the documentary today and it is nice
there is many things I didn't know
Now, I am sharing it to my family and friends

I knew it wouldn't work. In fact, I knew it wasn't going to work in June:

Great movie!
But there was very little reference to 1000$ jump and for the MTGox fail, probabely because time synchronization of film production..
and still lot of "historical" moments ,it was amazing to watch!
Big thanks for the creators.

I hold my misspelled coin dear...

No I haven't uploaded it , my friend did it . Enjoy !

My goodness... the full movie is there !!! Did u upload it ?
