Crypto Cult: Actor Exposes Dark Side of Digital Currency Investments
Actor and documentary filmmaker Ben McKenzie has written and produced a film that delves into the world of cryptocurrency. In an interview, he expressed his concerns about the cult-like behavior surrounding digital currency investments.
McKenzie's documentary, Everyone Is Lying to You for Money, explores why people continue to invest in crypto despite its highly under-regulated market and known risks.
McKenzie himself calls crypto 'the past of money' and believes it has failed before. He interviewed disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried months before his arrest, and also spoke with everyday people who lost everything investing in digital currency yet remain believers.
