· Synopsis: In MONEY ELECTRIC: THE BITCOIN MYSTERY, intrepid filmmaker Cullen Hoback dives into one of the most enduring and high-stakes mysteries in technology and finance: the origins of Bitcoin and the identity of its anonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. More than a decade after Satoshi's disappearance, Bitcoin now threatens to disrupt the global financial order, forcing nations to reconsider the very nature of money as Satoshi potentially stands to become the richest person on earth. Known for uncovering clandestine subcultures and movements through digital forensics, Hoback immerses himself with key players, uncovers never-before-seen clues, and humorously unravels Bitcoin's chaotic origins and meteoric rise. MONEY ELECTRIC offers a thrilling, globe-spanning investigation into the intentions of Bitcoin's enigmatic inventor, as Hoback encounters those who could be Satoshi, seeking to reveal who holds the power - and what they might do with it if Bitcoin were woven into our daily lives.
