The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin Movie Guide (2014)

The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin movie guide consists of 11 high-level, short answer and essay questions that will do more than just ask your students to regurgitate information. Challenge your students to compare Tim Berners-Lee’s World Wide Web with Satoshi’s Nakamoto’s Bitcoin and contemplate how these two inventions have and will impact people’s lives. Although this documentary is a few years old, it is still a great introduction to Bitcoin for students.

Note: You may want to skip the short section (51:00 – 54:20) that talked about Tor and the Silk Road and has one instance of the ‘s’ word.

An answer key is NOT included as many questions are open-ended and encourage students to analyze the film. Many answers will not fit into a ‘box’. Students are encouraged to construct their own meaning from the characters’ dialogue and behavior.
