Still waiting to see Homer paying for a beer with BTC. It shouldn't take long...

Well , Homer doesn't pay too many times for his beer Smiley.
Also , if I remember the episode when he bought his computer , I wouldn't want him going into BTC in an episode too soon.

I would like it more if they mention Bitcoin in Futurama.

I mean if BTC still exists in 1000 Years...

Bitcoin is an investment choice of a comic cynical, burnt out, drug addicted, porn addicted, sex addicted smoker that makes some of the worst business decisions on television. The writers of the show must hate Bitcoin. They are subliminally telling the audience how bad Bitcoin is as an investment. Stay away from anything Krusty touches because you will fail like he does. I'm not convinced all publicity is good. Publicity can also turn something into a public joke.

Sinead O’Connor on October 3, 1992 appeared on Saturday Night Live. As part of her live performance, she held up a picture of the Pope, said “Fight the real enemy!” and then tore the picture (the action was a reference to the child sex abuse scandals then being experienced by the Catholic church).  The backlash was severe, and her career was basically destroyed.

Rule #1 of The Simpsons:

Don't read too much into The Simpsons.

Likely, though, that they were just using a newly popular meme to get a laugh.

Wow! This was my favorite show for about 10 years in a row. I guess there are some bitcoin fans among the Simpsons writers and/or producers.

On the last episode at ~5:30:

Lisa Simpson: Krusty are you broke?
Krusty the clown: Yeah all it takes is bad luck at the ponys, worst luck in the Bitcoin market...


Lol is this the proof that Bitcoin is already mainstream Cheesy
