A film by Manuel Stagars • http://www.blockchain-documentary.com • For more interviews about the brave new world of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies, see Manuel's podcast: http://www.theblockchainandus.com. • In 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto invented bitcoin and the blockchain. For the first time in history, his invention made it possible to send money around the globe without banks, governments or any other intermediaries. The concept of the blockchain isn’t very intuitive. But still, many people believe it is a game changer. • Economist and filmmaker Manuel Stagars portrays this exciting technology in interviews with software developers, cryptologists, researchers, entrepreneurs, consultants, VCs, authors, politicians, and futurists from the United States, Canada, Switzerland, the UK, and Australia. • The Blockchain and Us is no explainer video of the technology. It gives a view on the topic, makes it accessible and starts a conversation about its potential wider implications in a non-technical way. The film deliberately poses more questions than it answers. • For a deep dive, see all full-length interviews from the film here: http://www.blockchain-documentary.com... • Credits: • Conversations with (in alphabetical order) • David Birch • Director of Innovation, Consult Hyperion • Guildford, UK • Perianne Boring • Founder President, Chamber of Digital Commerce • Washington, USA • Christian Decker • Core Tech Engineer, Blockstream • Zurich, Switzerland • Taylor Gerring • Co-Founder, Ethereum • Zug, Switzerland • Marco Carlo Grossi • Director Audit Risk Advisory, Deloitte Switzerland • Zurich, Switzerland • Caitlin Long • Chairman of the Board President at Symbiont.io • New York, USA • R.
