DIRTY COIN: THE BITCOIN MINING DOCUMENTARY

*Newsweek Headline in 2017

Join us for a screening of DIRTY COIN and Q&A with the Director and Executive Producer, Alana Mediavilla in our nation's capital.

Synopsis: Bitcoin mining is making global headlines for its electricity consumption, which exceeds that of Argentina, Norway, and many other developed countries.

The computers that run the Bitcoin network, which “mine” new coins, are very energy intensive, pushing miners to the corners of the world where electricity is cheapest.

What are the ripple effects and implications of this industry, which capitalizes on stranded energy sources, and what are the consequences for the surrounding communities and the environment? DIRTY COIN is a thought-provoking documentary directed by Alana Mediavilla that delves into the controversial world of Bitcoin mining.

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.

Through a combination of expert interviews, on-the-ground investigations, and compelling narratives, DIRTY COIN seeks to reshape the dialogue around Bitcoin data centers and their capacity to contribute positively to global energy solutions. Premiering to critical acclaim and winning Best Movie, the documentary sets the stage for a broader discussion on the future of energy and technology.
