Ethereum Stories

I know some want the @ethereumfilm documentary to be a movie you can show to non-crypto people and all of a sudden they get crypto and its use cases but there's a fine line IMO of being too preachy/salesy about crypto

If the goal is to attract a mainstream audience then having a movie simply about interesting, mission-focused characters helps people learn it's not just bad actors they see in headlines, keeping them open-minded to learn more

Pushing the positives of crypto too much can turn a lot of people off from watching the film / makes people skeptical vs goal is humanizing the space with good actors makes it more accessible

I just watched the film—didn't expect the film to focus so much on Vitalik himself, but I was glad it did.

Even though it may be difficult for non-crypto people to grasp the utility of crypto from the film itself, the emphasis on Vitalik and how he has matured into a figurehead for Ethereum is one that is highly illuminating, showing a more sincere and humanistic side of crypto that is not often apparent in mainstream media.

Raw, naive, imperfect, marred by teething problems, yet incredibly hopeful—this is how the story of Ethereum should be portrayed, a continuous work-in-progress towards a challenging but worthwhile ideal.
