The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin Page #13

than sensational journalism.

There was

no conclusive evidence

tying Dorian to bitcoin.

Amidst the uncertainty,

on that same day...

A comment suddenly appeared

on satoshi's long-dormant

profile page which read...

Maybe we'll never know

who created bitcoin...

But the truth is

it doesn't really matter.

Bitcoin belongs

to everyone.

And the future

is ours to build.

( ELECTRONICA MUSIC PLAYING )

Put $100,000 on market

orders right now.

- Why?

- Let's do it. Let's do it. Come on.

- Come on.

- Why? What's gonna happen?

Buy 100k worth

of bitcoins right now.

- Why?

- Do it.

- I don't wanna do it.

- Do it.

You owe me

$100,000. Do it.

I'll send you

$100,000 in bitcoins.

No, you buy it.

But 100k right now.

Dude, I can't.

I need the floating gox for volume.

Closing bell

for satoshi square!

All right,

does this look right?

1-n-p-w? Yup.

Yup, okay.

And I owe you 0.2?

- Uh... 0.18.

- 0.18.

This is for

bitcoin t-shirt.

I got 'em.

A pleasure, sir.

Great doing

business with you.

- Gonna wear your shirt proudly.

- Do it.

That's one thing that's

interesting about bitcoin.

It's like, how do

you declare losses?

You point to two transactions

that happened on the Internet

and you tell the I.R.S.

That you owned that?

"Oh, I used to own that and

I lost the private key."

And then if you

really do lose it,

how do you write it

off for taxes?

Oh, that's gonna

be interesting.

( THUNDER CRASHES )

We love bitcoin.

Okay, guys, we're gonna play a

special version of hopscotch

called "bitcoin

blockchain hopscotch."

Oh, you lost

all your bitcoins!

DANIEL:

Who is satoshi nakamoto?

( CHUCKLES )

I'd... rather

not tell you,

- but yeah.

- Oh, do you know?

Uh, maybe not, maybe.

Oh.

( CHUCKLES )

You know,

I have a bitcoin and a half myself now.

Which I think

probably in 10 years

VOORHEES:

When you think about it hard enough

on a global scale,

this is a net gain for humanity.
