‘New Kids On The Blockchain’ is a feature documentary by the award-winning filmmakers and channel of the same name, run by Ashley Pugh and Lisa Downs.
A documentary exploring the ICO boom (and bust) between 2017-2019 talking to thought leaders in the industry such as Roger Ver, Jeff Berwick, Craig Wright, John McAfee, David Siegel, Reggie Middleton, Omar Bham , Nicholas Merten (DataDash), Peter Schiff and many more. Along the journey the film follows three ICO’s from inception until now. Including The Pillar Project, the Next Generation Smart Wallet and Payment Network, that raised over $23M in 2017 as one of the first ICO’s. Also featured are Populous World invoice factoring utilising the blockchain and Funfair who are creating the worlds first decentralised casino ecosystem.
Ashley Pugh says: ‘This film is our version of fear and loathing but this time in cryptocurrency, we drank the Crypto Kool-Aid and got sucked into the ICO / crypto boom of 2017-2020. It was a wild ride into the heart of the blockchain dream of decentralised freedom. Was it a mirage or the start of new way to do capitalism Whatever it was - it was crazy!’
