Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery (2024)
Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery is a 2024 American documentary film directed by Cullen Hoback from a screenplay by Cullen Hoback. The film premiered on MAX on October 8, 2024.
Cullen Hoback explores the origins of Bitcoin and its anonymous creator Satoshi Nakamoto, exploring the potential of this cryptocurrency in the global financial system and who could wield immense power if it becomes mainstream.
The documentary claims that former Bitcoin developer Peter Todd is Satoshi Nakamoto. Todd denies being Nakamoto, saying it is „ridiculous“ and „grasping at straws,“ and criticized Hoback, saying it is „ironic that a filmmaker who is also known for a documentary about QAnon, has resorted to a similar style since QAnon, also based on coincidences and conspiratorially.".
