About this episode

C'est l'histoire d'une monnaie virtuelle dont la valeur a atteint celle du kilo d'or. A l'origine, c'est le rêve libertarien de l'obscur Satoshi Nakamoto, qui n'a jamais donné la moindre interview et dont on est presque certain aujourd'hui qu'il s'agit d'un pseudonyme. Sa création l'a aujourd'hui largement dépassé puisqu'en une douzaine d'année, la valeur du bitcoin est passée d'un centième de centime de dollar, à plus de cinquante mille dollars ! Nicolas Poincaré vous raconte l'incroyable destin de la reine des crypto-monnaies.
