I didn’t even think about the fact that Bitcoin may sound like episodes in movies, I’ll even take my free time and see them, I’m interested. This once again underlines its popularity! So this still hides the future.

Also in Taken series movie, can't really remember the exact episode but it's season 2. There bitcoin surfaced, it was supposed to be used by a group of guys for some sort of bad thing but was easy detected by a special unit of the FBI. The series is really interesting.

Unfriended: Dark Web featured bitcoin heavily in that movie. It was used in a not so good way but it was still used somehow. You might wanna add it on you list too.

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.

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.

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.
