The Highest of Stakes

Richard Heart has had an uncanny ability to predict the rise and fall of Bitcoin since its inception. Determined to share the wealth, he created HEXcoin, in which investors could buy a stake and leave their money for a period specified by them. Supporters, called Hexicans, revere it to an almost cult-like status. The kindest of detractors call it a Ponzi scheme. Here, both are examined so viewers of the documentary can make their own decisions about the charismatic leader.
