2,500,000 sats for a short film about the future of money, the main commission on Ordain right now, co-presented by Bitcoin FilmFest and MoneroKon. Submissions close May 31. Finalists screen in Warsaw June 4 through 7, alongside MoneroKon. The brief: “We are looking for bold, thoughtful, strange, cinematic, funny, philosophical, emotional, or visually ambitious films about how humans may exchange value in the future. Your story may explore trust, trade, debt, memory, markets, networks, surveillance, freedom, cooperation, ritual, or entirely new forms of economic life. The prompt is intentionally broad. We are not looking for one ideology, one policy answer, or one technology. We are looking for strong artistic interpretations of what money could become.” ordain.art/bff26 #bitcoin #monero #film
