Ben Mezrich’s newest blockbuster -- Bitcoin Billionaires: A True Story of Genius, Betrayal, and Redemption -- unfolds like a sequel to where The Social Network, based on his Accidental Billionaires, left off. This time, twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss segue from villains to protagonists as they’re introduced to cryptocurrencies and row along with digital assets as they flow from the dark web to the mainstream, becoming the first “Bitcoin Billionaires” along the way. In laying out the second act of Winklevii, Mezrich also delivers a Bitcoin primer for the common man, ripe for the silver screen.
