It’s a great time to introduce block chain and crypto currencies into the cinema. I’m not sure why hasn’t a director picked this idea yet. It would be a great cinematic piece, specially when it’s about a mysterious person whom we’re not aware of his or maybe even her personality, Satoshi Nakamoto, founder of the Bitcoin.
It might be a boring topic for many, but the fact is, there are vast majority of the population not knowing what a crypto currency is. These parts of population are so bonded with traditional banking system that they have no idea how a new payment system would work. The news is filled with blockchain experts, but many these people can’t even understand the complications behind blockchain technology.
By the time that I’m writing about it, no one actually knows who is or who are the founders of Bitcoin. The codes and the idea behind it look brilliant, some experts say it’s hard to believe that it was a one man’s job. So Satoshi Nakamoto might be a name for bunch of brilliant coders. What we can be almost sure is that he’s probably British because of using British slangs in his emails and comments. The time zone that he was active based on the forums he was active in doesn’t match with someone living in Japan. What we know is, it’s not that hard to stay away from the fame and he, Mr. Nakamoto is well aware of the consequences of the fame. So why would bother when you can continue a peaceful life without the news and people going after you wherever you go.
As we know by this year, Christopher Nolan is shooting the new move about Robert Oppenheimer , the American physicist who was a key person for U.S to build its first nuclear weapon which was also very tragic and somehow unethical. So just imagine what Nolan can bring to cinema by making a movie about Satoshi Nakamoto and the world of Crypto Currencies. A bit of fiction and cinematic scenes, complex timelines and that’s it.
We must have movies and shows talking about this new era, the new world and this decentralized idea. It would be even a good idea to fund this movies by bitcoin so it would be the first movie or show in history to be funded by crypto currencies. It’s all just some ideas, and I find them interesting with no doubt.
