Скачать или смотреть The Shocking Truth Behind the First Paper Money Bubble (John Law & Mississippi Scheme)

A murderer, a printing press, and a crowd dying for paper money. The shocking rise and collapse of John Law’s Mississippi Bubble feels disturbingly familiar in our age of crypto, housing booms, and meme stocks.

This documentary tells the hidden story of how a condemned killer reinvented money, saved bankrupt France—for a moment—and then triggered one of history’s most devastating financial crashes. From the birth of central banking and paper money to hyperinflation, panicked crowds, and echoes in modern bubbles, discover how the Mississippi Scheme became the template for every boom and bust since.

If you’re curious about how money really works, why financial manias repeat, and how trust can build—and destroy—entire economies, this deep‑dive is for you.
