A few days ago I watched the cryptocurrency documentary Everyone Is Lying to You for Money. It’s not a hard hitting expose or even very informative, in the sense that you won’t learn much about the history or technical details of, say, Bitcoin. This threw me off at first. But it is very watchable and even entertaining.
It’s really about the groups of people that rally around things like cryptocurrency and how they believe things that, well, maybe shouldn’t be believed. It also seems the film was completed at a time when cryptocurrency was still in its relative infancy, not yet adopted by the mainstream. If it doesn’t engage you, you may want to hang in there until the end. There is a “payoff” that (I think) is worth waiting for.
