VICE NEWS' MOTHERBOARD ANNOUNCES NEW SERIES "CRYPTOLAND" SERVING AS THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO THE CRYPTOCURRENCY WORLD

THE SERIES PROVIDES IN-DEPTH REPORTING ON ALL THINGS CRYPTOCURRENCY WITH HOST EDWARD ONGWESO JR.

BROOKLYN, NY (MARCH 8, 2022) - Today, VICE News' technology and science reporting multiplatform Motherboard announced "Cryptoland", a new weekly series hosted by VICE News Tonight's Krishna Andavolu. Cryptoland will serve as a guide to the cryptocurrency space, with comprehensive reporting that will interest people who are deep in the crypto space, but remain digestible and accessible to crypto newcomers.

The series covers everything from the billionaire early investors of Bitcoin to Bitcoin mines and climate change as well as ransomware and Liberland, a libertarian micronation where a new society built around cryptocurrency exists. The first episode will include field segments from around the world highlighting a particular narrative in the crypto space and will ultimately finish with a studio discussion between Andavolu, Motherboard staff, and innovators in the cryptocurrency space.

Motherboard has been covering Bitcoin and cryptocurrency for a since its inception, starting from the moment Satoshi Nakamoto's original white paper began getting attention and Bitcoin's beginnings as a tool used primarily to buy drugs on the darkweb, through the rise and fall of the Silk Road, to the original cryptocurrency boom-and-bust cycle, and through its current resurgence. Motherboard was at the Bitcoin foundation's first ever conference in 2013 and will unearth never-before-seen footage of this event in Cryptoland.

Having followed alt coins, meme coins, shitcoins, the blockchain, scams, hacks, schemes, regulations, environmental impacts, and sob stories about people losing their wallets, Motherboard is uniquely well positioned to tackle the ins and out of cryptocurrency for novices and experts alike. Cryptoland is one of the first comprehensive series to go into the field and show how cryptocurrency is not just impacting culture, finance, and politics, but also the broader infrastructure and design of our world. Cryptoland is the explainer you've been wanting and the deep-dive you need.

A collaboration between VICE News and Motherboard, the series features VICE News reporters Krishna Andavolu, Melissa Chan, Alice Hines, and Matthew Cassell, as well as Motherboard reporters Samantha Cole, Edward Ongweso Jr., Joseph Cox, Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai, Jordan Pearson, Janus Rose, Audrey Carleton, and Maxwell Strachan. The announcement of Cryptoland underscores Motherboard's pursuit to produce important storytelling that aims to uncover the tech and science stories that define what's coming next. You can watch Cryptoland on Motherboard's YouTube starting March 10, 2022.
