Bitcoin: The End of Money as We Know It traces the history of money from the ancient world to the modern trading floors of Wall St. The documentary exposes the practices of central banks and other financial actors who brought the world to its knees in the last crisis. It highlights Government influence on the money creation process and how it causes inflation. Moreover, this film explains how most money we use today is created out of thin air by commercial banks when they make loans. Epic in scope, this film examines the patterns of technological innovation and questions everything you thought you knew about money. Is Bitcoin an alternative to national currencies backed by debt? Will Bitcoin and crypto-currencies spark a revolution in how we use money peer to peer?Or is it simply a new toolfor criminals and the next bubble waiting to burst? If you trust in your money just as it is, this film has news for you. (Verleiher-Text)

Englisch It is not a completely perfect document, but it manages to explain briefly what a currency is (in the sense of what we use for payment), how it was created, how it evolved, what its further steps were, and what eventually led to the creation of something called Bitcoin. Thanks to the movie, almost everyone can understand what it actually is. Or at least many people who were not clear about it. ()
