You can also add the new TV series, The Purge (imdb) Season 1 Episode 4 "Release the Beast".

Miguel's sister, Penelope, is in a cult. She was riding a blue bus together with the other members of the cult that's about to do "the giving". "The giving" basically means getting killed by purgers during the Purge night. They believe that they are healing the world by exchanging their life to allow purgers to unleash their beasts within. When it was Penelope's time to do the giving, she was captured by the Nuns and was sold to the Carnival of Flesh in exchange of money. Carnival of Flesh is basically a carnival where they bid people and the highest bidder gets to do whatever they want to do with the person (and ultimately killing them). Bitcoin was mentioned in one of the scenes. It said "Bygone accepts cash, check, and Bitcoin." around 8:20.

There's also this page from bitcoin.it which might add more content to the OP

Thanks a lot for the hint. I have not watched the series yet. Do you have any video snippet that proves Bitcoin mentioned to link it in the opening post? I searched on Youtube for it. Without success.

I also thank for the list of bitcoin.it. I am currently working on an update of the opening post with some more Bitcoin mentions in videos and series.

Good to see that your online currency is featured on Series Films. I am very positive that the more it is feature more people become aware and more people will be supporting it.

I updated the opening post.

Added Silicon Valley Season 5 episode 7 which is named "Initial coin offering" where the guys are trying to do a ICO. Besides that Bitcoin, crypto currencies and Satoshi Nakamoto are covered. Funny episode. See a short compilation of the scenes on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vrQeNNIElM

Bitcoin as an elusive form of high-tech money. It might be a good ad but it can also make people think it is a myth and that is something that might come true in the future. Cool

It also appeared on The Blacklist, I think it was episode 22 of last season. When a transaction/trade was made using bitcoin. I think at that moment I thought of joining bitcoin and I did afterwards.v

frankly very many films are a bit telling how bitcoin technology is in use and some even blatantly point out the use of bitcoin and the dangers of having bitcoin so much controversy from some of the outstanding films and getting bitcoin to become famous.

That's cool! Thanks for the list. I will check Documentaries part.

Really, I never met this list of the movies before. It's tough! By the way, I have found a trailer of a cool Bitcoin movie, too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nkXhrwFoME. Documentary.

Tv Shows

Bitcoin has been mentioned in "HomeLand" and "SealTeam" in the current season. I forgot the episode number, sorry.
SealTeam just used the word "Bitcoin" only once after they attacked a poppy farm and recovered millions of dollars.

Thanks for the list of films) Now I know what to watch. I have already watched Mr. Robot but haven't seen others. As for the Simpsons, maybe I was inattentive but I don't remember Bitcoin there.

It has been some time since the last update.

In Season 5 of Silicon Valley, the coinbase logo is spotted in the intro. It is a nod to Bitcoin and crypto currencies.

Today, I stumbled over an article about an upcoming indie film named "Bitcoin". I read it on MarketWatch.com. The movie is about two brothers in Arizona who stumble across a Bitcoin wallet worth $20 million and try to sell it on the black market. More details on the linked site. As soon as it was relased, I'll add it to the list.

A Bitcoin sign appears in Deadpool during the first bar scene in the background. I wonder if they will have another reference in the upcoming second film.

Actually I have not seen any movie showcasing bitcoin neither have I watched any news featuring bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. But I have listened to to one of the local Radio state in my area, in one of their programme they were like analyzing bitcoin and cryptocurrency. I think it would be nice if the movie writers can come up with such idea it would be a nice medium to advertise bitcoin to many people out their.
