Screening of ‘Dirty Coin’: The Bitcoin Mining Documentary

The Film

Dirty Coin is a thought-provoking documentary that delves into the controversial world of Bitcoin mining, presenting it as a potential solution to the global energy crisis. The film challenges conventional wisdom about the environmental impact of Bitcoin and explores how this emerging technology could drive significant improvements in our energy infrastructure.

By harnessing surplus energy that would otherwise be wasted, communities are revitalized with investments that enhance quality of life, improve energy access, and create sustainable growth.

Premiering to critical acclaim and winning Best Movie, Dirty Coin sets the stage for a broader discussion on the future of energy, technology, and its potential to bring lasting benefits to communities that wouldn’t have had solutions otherwise. The documentary invites viewers to rethink Bitcoin mining, not just as a technological breakthrough but as a force that can empower regions globally.
