On the list, for example, are crypto pioneer&nbsp;<strong>Hal Finney<\/strong>, blogger and enthusiast&nbsp;<strong>Nick Szabo<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Len Sassaman<\/strong>, a programmer who passed away in 2011, close to the time Satoshi stopped posting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery | Official Trailer | HBO\" width=\"1290\" height=\"726\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iSF0KGsFuI8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Format and Style<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Documentary Length<\/strong><br>The runtime is approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Narrative Approach<\/strong><br>Hoback combines interviews with key figures in the cryptocurrency space, historical context, and humor to unravel the complex story of Bitcoin&#8217;s rise.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, some theories indicated that it would even be a group of programmers, something already discarded.
