NEW YORK – October 17, 2025 – “UNBANKED,” an award-winning, feature-length Bitcoin documentary officially lands on Apple TV, Amazon Prime and Google TV on October 31st—the 17th anniversary of Satoshi Nakamoto’s release of the famous Bitcoin White Paper on Halloween Day.
About the Film:
From the 2008 financial disaster arose Satoshi Nakamoto, who released the Bitcoin protocol, then disappeared forever. Since then, over $2.4T has been poured into this decentralized digital alternative to the US dollar. Is Bitcoin a myth or a pathway to mass monetary self-determination? Featuring interviews with Jack Dorsey, Adam Back, Michael Saylor, Erik Voorhees, Ted Cruz and Meltem Demirors and footage from 4 continents including Patagonia, Ghana, Nigeria, London, Portugal and across the US. Unbanked explores how millions may find financial freedom by becoming their own banks and cutting out the middleman.
Directed by David Kuhn and Lauren Sieckmann (2025, 85 min).
