(NASDAQ: NAKA) \u2014 through what filmmaker, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/WebWorthy\">Parker Worthington<\/a>, describes as one of the most pivotal chapters in BTC\u2019s history.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been a long run,\u201d Worthington said on the Bitcoin Magazine live desk at the Bitcoin 2026 Conference.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The documentary is tentatively titled <em>This Time Is Different<\/em> and was produced in association with <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/buckeye_bitcoin\">Michael Markle<\/a>. The project began as a focused documentary about Bitcoin payments, with early footage shot in 2024 around open-source payments infrastructure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But the scope expanded after Worthington began making repeated trips to shoot with Bailey\u2019s team, first in Puerto Rico, where early discussions about taking a company public \u2014 at that point still referred to in hushed terms \u2014 were just beginning to surface.<\/p>\n<p>Those early rumblings soon became the central thread of the film. What followed was the public launch of Nakamoto Inc., formed through a <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/david-bailey-and-bitcoin-native-holding-company-nakamoto-announce-merger-with-kindlymd-to-establish-bitcoin-treasury\">reverse merger with KindlyMD<\/a> and backed by a roughly $710 million capital raise \u2014 at the time among the largest PIPE financings ever tied to a digital asset company.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The documentary aims to capture the full arc of a four-year cycle, which included the highs and lows of launching a public Bitcoin company, the quietude that comes with SEC obligations, and the resilience required to navigate a bear market while executing a multi-entity consolidation strategy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m glad you got it on camera so people can see the raw passion that goes into this business,\u201d David Bailey, CEO of Nakamoto, said on the live desk. \u201cA lot of people say that people in bitcoin got lucky\u2026this documentary shows the conviction you need to be in bitcoin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Worthington told <em>Bitcoin Magazine <\/em>that what may look chaotic from the outside reflects a much more deliberate and complex story than any stock ticker alone suggests \u2014 pointing to Bitcoin Magazine, UTXO Management, BTC Inc., and Nakamoto\u2019s broader media and investment arms as evidence of an operating business with real revenue and reach.<\/p>\n<p>A release window of winter 2027 has been discussed, though the project could extend into 2028 depending on how the broader crypto market cycle plays out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The film is expected to be feature-length with potential distribution via a streaming platform. Worthington and the team expressed interest in packaging it as a standalone piece before exploring any series format.<\/p>\n<p><em>Bitcoin Magazine is published by BTC Inc., a subsidiary of Nakamoto Inc.
