Thanks for reporting! I am going to add it to the list

Do you know the season and episode of this snippet or is it a movie?

Cool! That's a TV series, 1st season is actually pretty good. The episode that mentions bitcoin is the 1st of the 1st season (S01E01).

Thanks for the information. I added it to the list

Curious! just last night doing zaping I just stopped to watch a channel just when it read "coinout" and the individual on screen said "the money in physical is going to disappear" to which Mark Cuban replied "not even the most staunch followers of bitcoin believe that..."

Now surfing the forum I get this post, I really could have written down the episode and the season, but I let it go, although if I can tell you that the program is Shark Tank.

Netflix, Queen of the South. Season 3 Ep1 she uses it for money transfers (Drug Money) but gets into trouble with guy running the operation in Malta. Technically a bit iffy but shows the strengths of instant trusted money transfers.

Can you provide a Youtube snippet or so?

What about mentions of Bitcoin in the 2019-2020 year? Did anyone notice anything?

I've noticed that too. The peak of mentions of Bitcoin in series seems to have been 2017 and 2018. Since then there are only a few series or movies.

There's a bitcoin reference in the very first episode of Future Man :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rTcnXPesxs

And there are A LOT of crypto references in the 5th season of Billions. Axelrod has invested in a mine which gets closed by the authorities and his son uses his school's electricity to try and mine some crypto.

Did a quick search. Do you mean this short documentary? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6sOFXHlhuE

as a fan of the big bang theory series, I think that this series is the closest representation of us (at least me).
they are nerds, tech geeks, and enthusiasts.
I believe that the early members of this forum were here because of the technology too, they were enthusiastic about a new thing.
you guys, should watch that series.

I am a fan of Big Bang Theory. But with the exception of one episode (which is already in the list) the series does not deal with Bitcoin and crypto currencies, although one might expect this from nerds more often.

Added Season 1 and 2 of Netflix' series "How to sell drugs online (fast)".

Netflix Trailer S1
Netflix Trailer S2

It's a series about normal guys who are going to build up an international drug sale on the dark web from their child's room. While in the first season, Bitcoin and crypto currencies plays only a minor role, it becomes a main role in the second season.

1. Blackhat - A Hacker based movie where hacker used BTC as their payment method.
2. Hacker - There they also used it.
3. Unfriended Dark Web

Could not find any hint on the web that Bitcoin is mentioned in these movies. Can you provide more information like where it is mentioned (at what point in the film) or do you know any Youtube clips?

After not updating the thread at all for a long time and only sporadically in the past months, I will now do regular updates again if there are new movies and series.

Quote from: Artemis3 on March 03, 2020, 07:40:57 AM

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".

Thanks, but this is already mentioned in the list.

He probably talks about this episode :
The Good Wife, Season 5 Episode 20. the Silk Road case. > https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3683150/

Thanks! Added the episode of The Good Wife to the list.

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

Thanks! Added Euphoria and Safe episode.

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.

Thanks again! Added Fantasy Island too.

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'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.

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.
