Bitcoin Is Generational Wealth (a video) by Swan Studios
TL;DR: A 15 minute film chronicling the historic lead-up to Bitcoin and envisioning what the next hundred years might be like thanks to it.
Hey Bitcoiners,
If you haven’t yet seen Bitcoin Is Generational Wealth, find some time this week to watch it, ideally full-screen on a big screen with the volume up. This short film we premiered in late 2021 continues to send chills and draw tears among viewers, and gets shown at many Bitcoin conferences, meetups, and other events. If you’re looking for a message of hope, or a reminder of the things Bitcoin can fix, watch this.
Enjoy!
Tick tock next block,
Cory Klippsten
