Bitcoin Heist film about bitcoin which illustrates a prediction that the price will rise sharply, in the ending that a father asks for thousands of bitcoin for his son's future
if you think about it, it is truly perfect for the future of their children, maybe someone has been inspired to buy bitcoin from the movie Bitcoin Heist and has already gotten high profits when bitcoin prices are high.

whether in the present year there will be films like that again ?

I just watched the 2020 film Fantasy Island. Not a great movie, but they mentioned bitcoin at around 31.43. Another only brief mention in passing but still nice to see bitcoin entering the minds of screenwriters. I wonder when we'll start to see some films based around or heavily involved with bitcoin.

Might be worth keeping an eye on this link to see what pops up: https://www.imdb.com/search/keyword/?keywords=bitcoin

Bitcoin was a part of a sub plot in the HBO series Euphoria where one of the characters asks how it works so she can start accepting it for online payments. They at least briefly sum it up fairly well to the laymen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nQG6soZa0E

Bitcoin was also very briefly mentioned on the Netlix series Safe, but it was just a passing comment and not really related to anything. I had to turn the subtitles on because I wasn't even 100% sure he said bitcoin but just coins, but the subtitles confirmed it. It was in episode 5 at around 19:08: https://www.netflix.com/title/80201500

I'm sure I've seen a couple of other films/Tv shows the past year or so where bitcoin has been mentioned that hasn't been noted in this thread but I'm struggling to recall them.

happy to see btc in this movies, the question is how has this appearance in all this movies and series been able to help btc? i usually wonder if viewers of this movies even pay attention to the mention of btc or at the end of the movie does it make them to want to use their google search engine to do more research about btc enough to want to be a part of this great community! i think this will be effective if people come into crypto because of the movie they watched where btc or atls where mentioned.

There was a whole episode of "The Good Wife" in 2011 about Bitcoin.
You probably mean season 3 episode 13 of Good Wife which is already listed in the opening post. If there is another one please report.
He probably talks about this episode :
The Good Wife, Season 5 Episode 20. the Silk Road case.  > https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3683150/

Bitcoin is mentioned in the 3rd season of the series Person of Interest, at least twice in the "plane episode" (13). Its also mentioned in a previous episode, some guy made "a million and a half in bitcoin".

Also, it's mentioned in almost every Netflix original series. Orphan Black, The Lone Survivor, Disjointed...to name a few.

Thanks for the hint. I am currently looking for new series I can start. I will see if the three mentioned series appealed to me. If so, then I will list the individual episodes and position where Bitcoin is mentioned.

It is really a good thing bitcoin is appearing in series and films making it possible for people who are movie freaks but don't have the patient to look online for upcoming or fast growing technology to see things related to bitcoin. No doubt as these movies and series are playing, very short but educative messages about bitcoin can be paased to viewers. These viewers will no doubt get some indirect messages about bitcoin which will be stored in their mind and maybe tempted to do research on bitcoin more later for investment purpose.

You also forgot to mention "Dope". This 2015 American crime comedy-drama featured Bitcoin front and center, as a group of high school friends become entangled in a mess of crimes. They find themselves in possession of molly they must get rid of, and begin doing so through the darknet website. The film, executive produced by Pharrell Williams, is the only mainstream film featuring Bitcoin as a focal point of the plotline.

Thanks, but take a look at the opening post. It is already mentioned. As far as I could remember, it even was one of the first movies listed on the thread Smiley

I think having bitcoin appear in movies and seires is a good thing in spreading bitcoin to the world. There are so many people who would rather spend hours watching movies but will never spend two minutes reading a book or reading anything online. Bitcoin could be chipped into movies and series and some little things can be discussed about it. It may not be much but should be able to send a good educative message that will make one want to search the internet for more information. Bitcoin appearing in all the movies and series you listed is good and am sure there are a whole lot of others you may have omitted. we should have more movies with bitcoin being used as a means of transaction in the movie. we just have to use all means available in spreading the word about bitcoin to the world even with movies.

I recently watched a film from marvel " ant Man and wasp." It also mentioned cryptocurrency. Nothing special, just in a conversation between people, one of them mentioned cryptocurrency. I don't remember what minute it was.

It would be helpful if you could find out which season and which episode it was. Otherwise I can not add it to the list.



I added three new entries:

Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween (2018)
Shameless (US) # Season 9 # Episode 9
Designated Survior # Season 2 # Episode 1

Thank you for your contributions to expand the collection.

One of the latest Blockbuster movies where mentioned is made about Bitcoin is "Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween" - They enter a old haunted house and they find a treasure chest. It highlights some misconceptions of virtual money and how it is mined and the nerds using it.  Roll Eyes

The more we get the public to see and hear about the technology, the higher the adoption will grow in the future. They can call it Nerd money, but the nerds will rule the world.  Grin

Bitcoin were also mentioned in the series Designated Survivor.


A little bit of the Designated Survivor: The United States Capitol was bombed and killed every person inside it, including the POTUS. *fast forward* The mastermind behind the bombing bought computers via Bitcoin..

          

In this part of the show (Season 2, Episode 1, around 21:30), it shows that transacting with Bitcoin is peer-to-peer and that can be anonymous.

Every time Bitcoin is mentioned on a movie or TV Show, it will bring some awareness regarding cryptocurrency, even if only one person go online to search what's all this about.

Great, I did not know that the topic of cryptocurrency and bitcoin is touched upon in the film industry. I think this will have a positive impact on its spread and increase popularity among a variety of people.
Bitcoin with the accompanying blockchain technology is considered as one of the appropriate technological inventions for the film, because it has a tremendous impact on various industries.
Entering the film can attract many interested people to study, deepen and be involved in bitcoin trading and investment, because film is a means of promotion that has a great effect on viewers.

I found this full episode of crypto currency in John Oliver show from marts 2018 really funny.


Cryptocurrencies: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

Digital currencies are generating a lot of excitement. John Oliver enlists Keegan-Michael Key to get potential investors equally excited about the concept of caution.
