Hollywood has discovered crypto. Featured films are in the works about the OneCoin scandal, about the Gemini founders (aka the Winklevoss twins) and about the mystery surrounding Satoshi Nakamoto. As such, documentary makers cannot stay all too far behind, and it will therefore be interesting to see how much of a low profile Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, will be able to keep when Ethereum: The Infinite Garden is released on the public (although plans are to only do so in 2023).

Film production company Optimist is responsible for the documentary, and were introduced to the topic of Ethereum and its charismatic founder by Morgan Beller, co-creator of Libra.

He stated:

I’ve always thought Buterin deserved to have his story out there. The whole Ethereum team is just so pure, authentic, kind and wonderful.

High priest

He added:

If you’re first learning about Ethereum and you’re not a crypto person, you don’t necessarily see that side. But I always thought that if the world were able to somehow see and understand where this is all coming from, the heart and thoughts behind it, people would both understand it and be more supportive.

Beller is not wrong. Vitalik has always tried to maintain his cool about his own fame in the world of crypto (even wearing a name badge during the 2021 Miami crypto conference), but when famous interviewer Lex Fridman asked Vitalik last year whether there needed to be a leader for the world of crypto, Vitalik answered:

There’s different kinds of leaders, there’s dictators who control all the money, there’s people who control organisations, there’s high priests that just have themselves and their Twitter followers. In these days, I’m a bit more in the high priest direction than before.
