Everyone Is Lying to You for Money

Actor and author Ben McKenzie turns investigator in his directorial debut, pulling back the curtain on cryptocurrency's explosive rise and the culture of hype, misinformation, and speculation fueling it. Through firsthand reporting and expert interviews, the film traces how crypto became one of the most aggressively marketed financial products of the modern era—exposing how warning signs were ignored or deliberately obscured. A cautionary tale and call for accountability that asks: who benefits from the chaos, and who is left to clean up the damage?
