"21 Million: Children of Satoshi" is a hard-hitting TV series set in the world of cryptography and espionage, produced by London based „21 Million“ media production.

An ICO (initial coin offering, similar to an IPO, initial public offering), is a novel way to fund a project by creating and selling a token with a certain functionality in its ecosystem.

"21 Million: Children of Satoshi" was funded by creating the "21 M Coin". These are similar to Bitcoin or Ethereum. 50% of the coins were purchased by libertarian-thinking and like-minded contributors to fund the production. Management has retained 20%. The remaining 30% are to be distributed to cast, crew and support staff on the project, in addition to their fees, to the equivalent of their earnings from the production.

These coins represent a genuine stake in the revenues generated by the production and guarantee that all involved receive a share of the income from sales, equivalent to their earnings, expressed as a percentage of the overall production budget.
