We need another Netflix documentary that explores in depth the issues with the current financial systems and talks about bitcoin on a level beyond the newbie understanding.

This will never happen on Netflix. Maybe after Hyperbitcoinization.

Doubt Netflix cares either way about the content as long as it brings in customers. I could be wrong though.

Do you think they would care to watch?

I have a feeling that in the circles of normies, BTC has a bad reputation, meaning if they hear the word BTC they start to "pa pa pa", and ignore everything that is said.

If it was well made and focused on money aspect first before talking about bitcoin then yes.

Another angle would be to follow some typical families and see how they approach bitcoin.

And it’s a side plot about the rise of Nostr ;)

The new PBS frontline doc "Easy Money" was an excellent recap of all the systemic rot and corruption that led to and emerged from GFC classic in '08 and just kept on rollin' until '22. The main takeaway is that there is no capacity or appetite for political leadership, and that the Fed has basically been left in charge of determining domestic (and in some way foreign) policy.

Bitcoin (and crypto) comes up as a footnote or a punchline for the kinds of assets that all the newly printed money went into in '21.

The failure of SVB was tacked on as an acknowledgement of the ongoing nature of the crisis, but It would be great to revisit and expand upon Bitcoin's position now that serious doubts are emerging over the global banking system, and what serious value propositions it has.
