The good Fight
season 5 episode 4

if ever you want to verify any show/movie quickly without needing to seek and watch hours of video.. just search the tv episode/movies subtitles. open srt file in notepad and 'find' function 'bitcoin'
takes seconds

subtitle:
00:33:18,866 --> 00:33:21,651
And now it's like you need a
permission slip to tell a joke.

00:33:21,695 --> 00:33:24,306
Yeah, and that's why
I printed up these.

00:33:25,090 --> 00:33:26,526
Boom.

00:33:26,569 --> 00:33:28,963
Oh, my God, a permit to
tell a joke. I love it.

00:33:29,007 --> 00:33:30,312
Hey, you can have that one.

00:33:30,356 --> 00:33:32,029
Uh, I don't think I
should make a Black joke.

00:33:32,053 --> 00:33:33,141
Well, I can handle it.

00:33:33,185 --> 00:33:35,056
- Can I get a Jewish one?

00:33:35,100 --> 00:33:36,753
Here.

00:33:36,797 --> 00:33:39,930
- Jay, you want one?
- Shit, I want more than one. Come on.

00:33:39,974 --> 00:33:42,368
So, what? You're just
going to hand these around?

00:33:42,411 --> 00:33:43,978
Yeah, like trading
cards or Bitcoin.

I should add my recollection of the film is that they steal "Bitcoin", however, Wikipedia says "Bertrand escapes with the USB flash drive on which the money has been downloaded" so this may need to be verified if anyone can get their hands on a print of the film.
subtitle find - mentions cryptocurrency and NFT but not bitcoin
00:03:19,549 --> 00:03:22,302
Are you familiar with Deep Net
cryptocurrency transactions?

556
00:24:10,013 --> 00:24:11,580
NFT fraud.

557
00:24:11,624 --> 00:24:13,103
I don't know what that is.

558
00:24:13,147 --> 00:24:15,105
Non-fungible token.

559
00:24:15,149 --> 00:24:17,281
Someone sold a painting
that was a NFT fake.

560
00:24:17,325 --> 00:24:19,762
And they're suing
them for $4 million.

I'm surprised you don't have Blindspot on your list.  One of the reoccurring characters (who becomes a central character later in the series) is "Rich Dot-Com" who built his fortune on bitcoin hidden in a brain wallet.

Yep, Season 1, Episode 6 and Season 5, Episode 2 of Blindspot both reference Bitcoin directly.

Have just recalled another movie:

Bastille Day.

Set in Paris on the titular Bastille Day, a riot occurs in Paris culminating in the storming of a bank with the Police then counter storming the bank.  The Police are corrupt (!) and have used the riot as a front to access the bank's vaults to steal Bitcoin.

The Movie "Midnight in Paris" talks about bitcoin.  (The father of the bride is an investment banker and talks about the "Silicon Valley Bitcoin Investors").

What's interesting about it is that the movie came out in 2010.




TV Series.

That series is quite funny, indeed!

The youtube video you found matches the S05E08 episode I mentioned, but not the S06E04. If I find something I will post it here.

Thanks, I added both to the list in the opening post. Please post here if you find more scenes.

In the film "Integrity," a large amount of stolen money needs to be laundered, and they operate through such channels as antiques, real estate, luxury goods, Bitcoin, etc.

Can you give some more infos or can you provide a Youtube link where the mentioning is shown?

The Rookie:  Season 3, Episode 4.  Literally the opening first 20 seconds of the episode.

Added it to the list, too. Thanks!

Interesting and thanks for reporting! This is a series I will definitely watch in the future. On Youtube I found a montage of scenes of Brookyln 99 where Bitcoin is mentioned. Can you match them to the episodes you mentioned or are these other spots in Brooklyn 99 where Bitcoin is mentioned?

In Brooklyn Nine-Nine S05E08 one character, DC Parlov, mentions Bitcoin at 12:55 and then it's mentioned again at 20:09 by Terry.

Brooklyn 99 again, S06E04, beginning of the episode : Gina says that she could get rich with cryptocurrency by creating the "GinaCoin" Tongue

There have probably been more bitcoins since this thread was last updated (though I couldn't say for sure).  It'd be nice if this thread was kept up-to-date.

I remember it being referenced in 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' recently, but forgot to make a note of which episode it was.

In the 3rd episode, at 24:35 Smiley

I have not watched the movie about Silk Road but I guess Bitcoin is mentioned in it...

Has anyone seen it? Is it OK?

Bitcoin is mentioned very briefly in the film Save Yourselves at 28:12 in the shower scene: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7873348/

They're discussing money worries and the male character is just about to boast about his money in bitcoin before the female character cuts him off and proclaims "bitcoin doesn't count". I found it kinda funny to be honest.

That's a great list that I will soon take some time to check it out. I am sure one day Nakamoto's story will become a Hollywood blockbuster. I expected a movie about him already. Maybe some director is already working on it.

Not a series or film. Cricketer Shakib Al Hasan was contacted by Akash Chopra (match fixing agent) to fix a match and he was offered to receive the reward through BTC. Akash Chopra asked for a bitcoin address although Shakib totally ignored that and didn’t reply to him at all.

Please take a note next time. I noticed a lot of people post here but can not exactly say in which episode it occurs. I watch a lot of series but I can not watch all mentioned here, otherwise I would need to have a 48 hours day  Cheesy

I guess this is the most recent thread dealing with movies that have bitcoin in them, so I'm a-bumping it in the hopes that my post doesn't get deleted.

As I'm writing this, I'm watching a somewhat crappy little movie called Double Down, and bitcoin was mentioned once in it in a scene where a hacker-type kid is taking payment from the protagonist for some data recovery service, and I thought I ought to mention it since it's rare that I see bitcoin/crypto mentioned in movies--and I watch a lot of them.
