Bitcoin FilmFest is a Bitcoin-Only project that debuted in March 2023 by running the world’s first large-scale Bitcoin film festival (aka BFF) in Warsaw, Poland. ^{[1] [2]}

Its success led to more events, called ‘mini editions’, held in Lisbon, Lugano, El Salvador, Cape Town, and recently in Funchal Madeira, bringing a cinematic touch to renowned conferences. Future events will be held regularly, both locally and abroad, where Bitcoin FilmFest will be a guest or host. Warsaw remains the official location of the main edition of BFF, the Bitcoin Film Festival, which happens every year in the capital of Poland. ^{[1] [2]}

We build bridges between art, culture, education. For critical thinkers and freedom-seekers, filmmakers and cinema buffs alike. (BFF Team) ^[1]

Overview

Bitcoin FilmFest goes beyond a series of events, no matter how great they are. It also serves as a networking platform, the Bitcoin Cinema Hub, that connects the influential minds in Bitcoin, art, and business — connecting creators, filmmakers, producers, and cinema fans. ^[1]

"We are a group of volunteers dedicated to supporting the growth of Bitcoin culture and independent cinema. In less than a year, we organized not only six cinematic events, but also became a dynamic hub that connects people, inspires, entertains and educates." - the team says ^[1]

The Bitcoin FilmFest 2024 edition, (BFF’24) European Halving Party took place at Kinoteka, Warsaw Poland took place from April 19 to 21. ^[1]
