They came up with the idea of making a documentary when Daniel has trouble explaining what bitcoin is to people. Daniel is a 35 years old computer programmer and is really enthusiastic about Bitcoin. He was instantly fascinated by Bitcoin when he discovered it back in 2011. He believes that Bitcoin is the future of currency. In the movie, you will see that Daniel is meeting the people who are leading the digital revolution and interview them.

That this is one of the most educational documentaries.

A Wall Street banker, Marty is demoted to his hometown. There he is lost in the tangled scheme of money laundering. The web involves a Russian gang and an art gallery in NY. During this investigation, Marty himself and the people around him face problems and get hurt. It is disappointing, but the lead’s acting is not as strong in the other scenes as during the family stuff. At least, the plot is so tense that you will definitely not get bored and will not turn it off. Just like other fiction movies, “Crypto” does not have much to do with cryptocurrency, but this movie is still enjoyable to watch.

Conclusion

To sum up, there are not many fiction movies about cryptocurrency. Most of the films about this topic are documentaries, but the storyline of them is so interesting that they are no less enjoyable to watch than fiction ones. The main purpose of documentaries is to give us information and educate us and in my opinion, these movies serve their purpose perfectly.
