I don't think bitcoin should be marketed on its own on TV.

It'd be up for something like an etf such as greyscale to invest in.

If you introduced bitcoin in ads its not very forgiving and, even if accepted by the TV channel, would probably be bad for its sentiment too due to it being kinda hard to understand how to use.
I thought differently. Marketing is also a form of promoting for everyone to be widely known. In fact Bitcoin has appeared on television many times. It is a good thing that people will have the right understanding of Bitcoin and will think about it or not to join Bitcoin. Avoid finding people to imitate but the results failed. And we rest assured every news when taking a television correctly.

If there is a crypto company that wants to advertise their company on television then we will probably see some advertisement. But I don't think that Television is the biggest industry to advertise on because a lot of people are on the Internet, not to mention that Television advertisement is gosh darn expensive compared to ads online.

Bitcoin is well-known in cyberspace as it's often proclaimed to be the "currency of the Internet". There are a lot of education material about Bitcoin either in the form of a book, a web article, or a video tutorial. This is great since it helps spread awareness for Bitcoin across the Internet. But something else is missing for Bitcoin to reach a wider audience. It's yet the day where Bitcoin isn't promoted/marketed on TV. Seniors aren't connected to the Internet as much as young people are, but they are mostly watching TV. All it takes is for someone to air a commercial about Bitcoin on TV, and the pioneer cryptocurrency will be on a road towards non-stop growth in the mainstream world. Add to this a movie related about Bitcoin and you'll see demand rise like skyrocket in no time.

Do you think Bitcoin will be promoted across TV sometime in the future? If not, why? What do you think will happen after Bitcoin is marketed across major TV networks? Will it boost mainstream adoption? Or will it have no effect whatsoever? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Smiley
Bitcoin is being interested in and looking for the way to get rich. So Bitcoin is promoted on television is very normal. I watched Bitcoin news via TV waves. The media also offers many prospects for Bitcoin in the future. Maybe Bitcoin will be accepted and gradually everyone will see Bitcoin as utility coins.

In my country I have already seen Bitcoin in TV but most of the time Bitcoin was used to scam other people who have no knowledge about cryptocurrencies.

https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/money/personalfinance/767687/don-t-be-a-victim-to-online-cryptocurrency-scams/story/

I know it does help promote Bitcoin. Like what you have said " Seniors aren't connected to the Internet", so when they see this on TV, they might have a bad image for Bitcoin already.
Maybe if the Government will promote it will surely become mainstream and more people will become interested to it.

Another news I have seen is a son of celebrity talks about Bitcoin but this time it is about someone that wants to have bitcoin at young age.

I also think that internet is the largest media now at the moment. Most of the smart people who use internet for any reason are familiar with the social media and with different media platform. Its actually help better than tv which is just viewed a number of people only. so that internet is the best platform over tv media.
There are countries that are not fond of using social media but it's no doubt that social media is one of the biggest media today where almost everything happens.
News, series', television, movies, etc, and other stuff can be uploaded there. But bitcoin doesn't need to be advertised anymore, from the people of the community, we're the one who are doing it voluntarily through our networks.

Even Bitcoin is not being formally advertise into national television, there are still instances that it is being reported on news which many have come from the past that seems all negative because of the scammers but lately being casted on national television, many have been interviewed about doing trading success having cryptocurrency including Bitcoin as the main crypto they are rooting because many have provided proof of their success. Although Bitcoin is not totally being promoted through television, there are other sorts of platforms where Bitcoin is being mentioned and that is I think already enough for Bitcoin to be known by many people.

This is not a direct advertising for bitcoin, but in general it makes bitcoin popular on TV. A lot of football fans will see this ad.

Internet and social media have taken over the TV era. It will not have much effect in bitcoin is introduced on national TV. What more important is that bitcoin should be known to everyone and social media is the best place to spread the knowledge. 

Another thing to consider is that TV is mostly watched by elderly people while social media is used most by the youth. Bitcoin awareness should be targeted to youth via social media.

Bitcoin is being advertised for free on TV for a long time. First, they release the information because Bitcoin's fluctuations in value are big risks. Next, they condemn multi-level projects that use Bitcoin, causing many people to lose money. And now they are reporting on financial institutions, means of payment, and banks accepting Bitcoin in their systems. Bitcoin is added to financial news because of its volatility in value.
It can be seen that Bitcoin has gone from an anonymous asset to a widely accepted mainstream one as we are seeing. That success is due to the free TV promotion.

The government won't allow this kind of advertisement to be open on mainstream media such as television. The nature of the transaction made in BTC is unknown and can't be controlled by the government, which is why other countries banned BTC due to this fact. So mainstream adoption,is not possible for now unless your country is open-minded when it comes to cryptocurrency

More people are using the internet now, I doubt a commercial will affect much.
Reviews, tutorials, video blogs, and social media posts are already helping a lot to boost the market of it.
We spend more on that field rather than the television. Ads are also popping out everywhere about Bitcoin and how to invest even though most of them are scam attempts.
Also who is going to pay if the effect will be questioning your background financially.

Bitcoin has been on TV and even in the news quite often, there is even a thread on it in the forum and I know I've seen it somewhere. Where the issue lies is how bitcoin is portrayed, what is being said about it. Bitcoin has never got a pleasing story, its always portrayed or have its stories centered 9n how much evil that could be done by using bitcoin. This is some of the reasons behind the hindrance of its growth but then, its basically amongst those who do not care to conduct there own research.

Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies not being openly promoted 8n media houses is another way to tell you that, the government actually own the media houses and as such, the message they pass to the public are limited and controlled by the government. So, no good news should we be expecting of bitcoin from media houses anytime soon. only records and statistics that might not matter much.

There are finance channels that flash BTC though. Channels like these aren't really what interested everyone except us who had already invested in gold, silver and BTC. But if its flashes on primetime news and the positive side of BTC, it may really be a big price bump.
The media on TV usually only follows hysteria, looking for ratings by raising current news. for a neutral one, it can have a positive impact, unfortunately many media report BTC with unsubstantiated rumors that cause bad effects. while local news in my country, usually entering economic channels, reports quite positive hl where cryptocurrency trading has been legalized, and there are several exchanges that have officially obtained legality, this is good for educating the public so they are not trapped by fake exchanges.

Few years back it is impossible to see anything related to cryptocurrency and Bitcoin. Now often we can see news associated with bitcoin on national Media. This itself a big growth in the cryptospace. Now common men and women have known about bitcoin. Years back if we ask to a person about cryptocurrencies, they don't have any information about it. Now scenario have changed with the increasing awareness and usage.

That is certainly true, mate. A lot has changed since Bitcoin's inception in 2009. Marketing/promotion efforts from mainstream companies, businesses, and startups had a positive effect over Bitcoin's adoption in the mainstream world. Nowadays we have a lot of media related to Bitcoin and Blockchain tech. There's lots of information scattered throughout the web to help increase awareness among people worldwide.

As far as the TV is concerned, Bitcoin is already promoted throughout news outlets. What I find odd is that there are no commercials related to Bitcoin across major TV networks. Maybe government regulations have something to do with this? Whatever the case may be, Bitcoin is missing a portion of the world's population because of the lack of marketing/promotion on TV. Most people in third world countries don't have access to the Internet, but they do have access to a TV. At least, Bitcoin is still popular worldwide. As long as the network remains decentralized, nothing else matters. Just my thoughts Grin

I think this was already mentioned in some of the news outlets out there like Bloomberg, CNN, etc., if they are talking about the latest prices on stocks, cryptos, etc. On top of that, Bitcoin was already mentioned in some of the TV shows, movies and documentaries like The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Ant-Man and the Wasp, and so on.

There will come a time that we will be seeing more of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies live on television. It will come, but we don't know when exactly. Massive adoption is real!

There are already some artist who already exposed with the crypto world so the bitcoin in national television is possible as well, there are already news regarding bitcoin so what more about television, television can hook up other people, mostly the old ones so if the crypto community will be advertised using a TV then it would be good to spread the news regarding bitcoin.

Everyone can use television and everyone can watch what's on television, it is a great platform to start the mass adoption of bitcoin.

Sometimes I hear some dialog on TV series but not really an Ad where it's promoted by a company that is adopting BTC. There are sometimes news reports especially negative reports like scams through BTC which the anchor doesn't have any idea what BTC is.

There are finance channels that flash BTC though. Channels like these aren't really what interested everyone except us who had already invested in gold, silver and BTC. But if its flashes on primetime news and the positive side of BTC, it may really be a big price bump.

to be honest most of people who still watched tv nowadays are those people who aren't really into technology or senior and many people seem to consider these audiences not a potential crypto customer so maybe that's why none of people even the millionaires promoting bitcoin on tv and even without it bitcoin already getting publication from every media anyway. I think making promotion on tv itself is just a waste of money however I think company that based on cryptocurrency business could get crypto aired in tv but if it's an individual who gonna do that, I doubt there's gonna be any. It's most likely that if a person gonna make a tv advertisement they gonna advertise their own coin.

It hard to tell but AFAIK, television will soon be wiped out and online streaming will replace this source of entertainment. In my country, despite of being determined as a third world country, online streaming like Netflix is becoming widespread in urban. And cryptocurrency is a common category on Netflix

Traditional television channel in my country sometimes mentions bitcoin but they only try to criticize it and warn people that they might lose their money to this new investing scheme. Television is no less than a tool of the government for propaganda
