One pioneering couple who can bravely afford to treat money as a fun little experiment is ready to premier their revolutionary new documentary, Life on Bitcoin, next week at the Internet Archive.
Bitcoin, for the uninitiated, is like money in that it is a convenient, mutually agreed-upon convention. However, Bitcoin differs from money in that it is not nearly as mutually agreed-upon. Fortunately, the currency makes for great tattoos.
Life On Bitcoin follows newlywed bitcoin evangelists Austin and Beccy Craig "who struggle for 100+ days to live entirely on the upstart currency." Exploiting their honeymoon for artistic fodder, "it felt like learning to swim by jumping in the deep end of the pool,” said Austin. Indeed, it looks like it's truly sink or swim for the duo. Who keeps the bitcoin in the event of divorce?
