Leave your thoughts about The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin.
| VarietyDennis HarveyRather like being stuck in one long meeting with the almost invariably young, white, middle-class male members of a startup: Their zeal isn't all that infectious unless you're already on the team. |
| New York TimesBen KenigsbergThe fates of several of the movie’s bitcoin entrepreneurs are unlikely to send viewers rushing to exchange their dollars. But The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin nevertheless functions as an entertaining portrait of the unshakable optimism that governs what’s been called a financial Wild West. |
| Epoch TimesJoe BendelAs director and co-writer, Mross provides a lucid explanation of the bitcoin system and an authoritative history of its formative years. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenFilmmaker Nicholas Mross takes a straight-ahead, even-handed approach to the controversial payment system. |
