Title: [2015-08-12] The Most Impossible Thing in "MI: Rogue Nation" Post by: LiteCoinGuy on August 12, 2015, 04:04:10 PM The Most Impossible Thing in "MI: Rogue Nation"
There’s a scene in “Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation” that seems entirely plausible. The bad guy is transferring a huge amount of money, something like $1 billion. He has a hand-held device and clicks the button. We see a progress bar. The operation takes only a few seconds and then there is a ding. Done! Wow, impressive. http://fee.org/anythingpeaceful/detail/the-most-impossible-thing-in-mi-rogue-nation Title: Re: [2015-08-12] The Most Impossible Thing in "MI: Rogue Nation" Post by: TraderTimm on August 12, 2015, 04:13:26 PM Has no direct Bitcoin reference, just the usual "better than banks" thesis that has been covered quite extensively already in the Bitcoin-sphere.
Not sure why it was written, perhaps to get traffic? Don't bother...

Almost Human it was called and there was numerous references to Bitcoin in there. At one point the copper gave a homeless man some Bitcoin simply by tapping his USB type dongle against the other guys, great show, would recommend it. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2654580/?ref_=nv_sr_6 Title: Re: [2015-08-12] The Most Impossible Thing in "MI: Rogue Nation" Post by: pedrog on August 12, 2015, 04:50:00 PM Haha, that happens a lot in movies and TV!
Immediate, anonymous and untraceable transactions of millions of dollars through the banking system are a reality. It's funny when they put the money jumping from account to account, like all around the world. |
