Title: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: BrannigansLaw on September 09, 2016, 10:22:39 AM Just wondering who here is watching Mr Robot? Bitcoin is all over it, especially in the 2nd season! Surprised there isn't a shitty alt called E coin yet.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: franky1 on September 09, 2016, 11:34:18 AM yes many people have already mentioned it since last year..
however this years big TV gossip point is the TV show "Startup" which is not about hacking or darknet stuff, but the financial industry dealing with cryptocurrency Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: pereira4 on September 09, 2016, 11:52:06 AM Im not watching iyet but i keep seeing it mentioned on reddit.com/r/bitcoin so i will end up looking at it just to see what the fuzz is all about. Apparently it has a strong role on the second season beyond some subliminal advertisements like "bitcoin accepted here" marks.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Blind Legs Parker on September 09, 2016, 12:19:10 PM Funny. I heard for the first time about Mr Robot today on Facebook, from a friend completely unrelated to bitcoin and now I hear about it here for the second time in the same day, though I had never heard about it before. I wanted to watch it anyway but now even more than before.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: amacar2 on September 09, 2016, 12:23:32 PM Startup is now in buzz but mr. robot and The blacklist both have many scenes which talk about crypto and bitcoin. And actually in both of them, we can see board of bitcoin accepted here in some shops inside show.
Completed all season/episodes of the blacklist and yet to complete mr. robot. Both are intresting :) Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Velkro on September 09, 2016, 12:26:33 PM Just wondering who here is watching Mr Robot? Bitcoin is all over it, especially in the 2nd season! Surprised there isn't a shitty alt called E coin yet. I was watching it, mostly first season. I mean this is getting out of my mind, i can't keep up with this psycho. Im getting confused im getting angry its not for me probably :). Anyway, good show, good that it "promotes" bitcoin in a way. Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: poptok1 on September 09, 2016, 12:28:48 PM Funny. I heard for the first time about Mr Robot today on Facebook, from a friend completely unrelated to bitcoin and now I hear about it now here. I wanted to watch it anyway but now even more than before. Season1 was very good, top quality entertainment, surprising and thrilling, full of enigmatic characters, interesting references to pop culture or science. Now I got bored with season2...its all so damn unreal, plots are way, way worse, generally a disappointment after that awesome start. Probably creators wasn't ready for the huge success and now its just a classic golden-cow milking... Hope for something fresh to happen to change my mind about S02. Go watch it, I guarantee that after first episode you will eat all the rest at once :) Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot?

Surprised there isn't a shitty alt called E coin yet. nope, I've never watch both of the first season and the second season. I've just ever heard about that and seen some pictures related to that film. and if I'm not mistaken I also got information about this film from this forum. but there's a new thread here. Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Crypt0kn1ght on September 09, 2016, 12:40:40 PM I do and it's great! anyone knows some series like it?
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: tiggytomb on September 09, 2016, 12:43:23 PM Started to watch it, almost at the end of series 1, it is a tough series to stick with I find as it is quite slow but I will get back to it. Startup sounds like something worth a watch.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: johnnyyash on September 09, 2016, 12:59:08 PM Haven't watched it yet...but hearing mention of it..
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: VanDeinsberg12 on September 09, 2016, 01:11:55 PM Does the Mr robot is mentioning a bitcoin symbol in their second season? I just remembering about someone is ever making a post about that?
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: danfoda on September 09, 2016, 01:48:58 PM I do watch Mr. Robot. But I think season 2 is boring as hell.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Noctis Connor on September 09, 2016, 01:57:26 PM Just wondering who here is watching Mr Robot? Bitcoin is all over it, especially in the 2nd season! Surprised there isn't a shitty alt called E coin yet. I just watched the season 1 already and i never watch the season two because im too busy but i know they promoting bitcoin in that movie because Eliot are good hacker and good white hat hacker he can defend his company in hijack attack or attack from the 3rd country im gonna watch it this weekend.Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Rubberduckie on September 09, 2016, 02:10:32 PM I watched all of season 1 because I had started it but after being excited for
it I found it really went downhill and got super confusing. Tried to watch season 2 and the first couple episodes were very weird and long. I stopped watching. Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Vinz24 on September 11, 2016, 12:32:52 PM I heard about Mr robot back then but I'm still not watching it. And with good review about season, if I have I'll try watch it. And ofcourse Start up is the buzz now, it just gives me some curiosity.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: LFC_Bitcoin on September 11, 2016, 12:35:15 PM I won't be watching it, I'd probably find it really boring. I don't watch much TV any way, mainly just sport & movies.
It's obviously a great thing for bitcoin though if it's getting mentioned on mainstream TV so I'm happy about that. Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot?

Surprised there isn't a shitty alt called E coin yet. I tried watching it but havnt really got fully into it yet, i think the evil corporation boss is to unbelievable...... ::) Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Jeremycoin on September 11, 2016, 12:39:02 PM I'm stuck in the 1st Season, but I think I will watch the 2nd Season if it true that you say that Bitcoin is all over it. Because I rarely find this kind of movie who mentioned Bitcoin a lot in it, this just seems interesting to be watched.

Surprised there isn't a shitty alt called E coin yet. i saw a bunch of episodes in the first season and didnt really enjoy the show. the story was nice but the episodes were just moving way too slow for me. Half the episodes was him getting high and sleeping. :-[Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: davis196 on September 11, 2016, 02:26:56 PM Just wondering who here is watching Mr Robot? Bitcoin is all over it, especially in the 2nd season! Surprised there isn't a shitty alt called E coin yet. I don`t watch "Mr.Robot".I don`t watch TV. It`s good that bitcoin is mentioned there.Every promotion is good for btc. Maybe some other TV shows will mention bitcoin soon. Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Blind Legs Parker on September 21, 2016, 12:09:55 PM yes many people have already mentioned it since last year.. Mr. Robot is quite cool but Startup is full of bullshit. Worst about Startup is that it won't help building confidence in cryptos with average people: everything revolving around it is obscure and hard to understand (specifically because it's full of Hollywood bullshit and actually very far from the truth), not mentioning it looks like anything but safe (with that Asian guy hacking Gencoin's developer's wallet "because he is a better hacker than she is omg yeah it makes sense").however this years big TV gossip point is the TV show "Startup" which is not about hacking or darknet stuff, but the financial industry dealing with cryptocurrency Mr. Robot is much more down to earth when it comes to cryptocurrency (it's completely paranoid regarding the system but at least it's not bullshitting about crypto). Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: thejaytiesto on September 21, 2016, 12:16:42 PM I just watched few episodes of season 1, but i heard season 2 is horrible compared to season 1. Also, i doubt many people watch it because it's a bit too realistic compared to hollywood movies. What I heard is the opposite, it gets increasingly better, specially for a bitcoin fan like us, since in the season 2, the crypto talk gets really intense and its the main role of the series. Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Blind Legs Parker on September 21, 2016, 12:27:41 PM I got the same feeling too: Mr Robot's second season is better than the first. It actually gets increasingly better, as you said. Not only for a cryptofan but from the point of view of the story, too.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: coindancer on September 21, 2016, 01:31:05 PM I got the same feeling too: Mr Robot's second season is better than the first. It actually gets increasingly better, as you said. Not only for a cryptofan but from the point of view of the story, too. is it worth it? i watched a bit of an episode and didn't like it much. what is so special about it?i do not want to watch a show just because it is somehow btc related. it is the same with the other on, what was it called again? the one with martin freeman. Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: vero on September 21, 2016, 02:04:15 PM no i don't watched but when i read someone post if in mr robot there is a part that tells bitcoin,then I watched only that's part.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Xester on September 21, 2016, 02:16:48 PM No I do not watch it before but I already saw a clip about a group talking about bitcoins. It is no surprise since the theme of that tv series is about high technology. Though we should be thankful that Mr Robot gives a free advertisement and publicity of what bitcoin is. Viewers of that show who do not have any knowledge ehat bitcoin is will be curious about it fo sure.

Also, for once, and as I've already said it, the technical stuff related to computers is not full of hollywood bullshit. That's a plus. The one with Martin Freeman is Startup and it's not as good (not shitty either, it's still not that bad but very hollywoodish and not convincing all in all). Watch Sherlock instead.

Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: RodeoX on September 21, 2016, 04:20:42 PM I want to like it but... I watched the first episode recently and it was a little sophomoric. More like the writing of a person who knows a little about hacking, but not much. For example one of the characters, a top network security person, did not know what a DDoS attack was or TOR or something. I forget what it was, but something 101 in hacking.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Wendigo on September 21, 2016, 05:00:48 PM Mr. Robot is very weird and obviously you need to be into computers and technology to fully enjoy it and honestly even I find it kinda peculiar sometimes and too much for my taste. By the way Almost Human was the first series to showcase Bitcoin tech on television and personally I liked that show a lot more but sadly it got cancelled prematurely.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot?

I forget what it was, but something 101 in hacking. I think this paradox is due to the fact that people watching the series don't necessarily have that much knowledge, so they have to find a way to explain it. I remember that in one of the first episodes, Eliott explains a very simple plan to hack Steel Mountain and the other members of the group don't understand at first, which gives the series' director a good excuse to explain in a more detailed fashion what's going to happen to Steel Mountain through an example. Thing is you didn't even need to be a hacker to understand, just to pay attention. But yeah. they don't want to lose too many people because of too much jargon. What I mean when I say that it's not bullshit is that what the hacking-related stuff is actually genuine. It's not like in other series/movies, where hacking is magic (https://youtu.be/bS5P_LAqiVg?t=9m46s). That's what I mean. http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/293739maxresdefault.jpg Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot?

By the way Almost Human was the first series to showcase Bitcoin tech on television and personally I liked that show a lot more but sadly it got cancelled prematurely. The first season of Mr. Robot was far, far better than the current one, or at least of the first few episodes I've seen of the current season. I don't know why they chose to do some of the things they did and why they're straying from the original sort of aspect of the show (to an extent), but I hope it turned around or turns around.Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: ImHash on September 25, 2016, 06:00:50 AM Though that TV series is more about big companies like google and facebook.
I think bitcoin still an infant comparing to paper money, it needs at least +$500 Billion capital to be considered large scale topic to talk about globally. And that makes us lucky to be involved so early to benefit but yet we complain a lot. Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: MingLee on September 25, 2016, 06:03:13 AM I started watching that TV show, and it's kind of interesting but I haven't really been focused on watching it and I've mainly focused on watching some other things while I try to watch more of it. I just can't really connect with the main character and his acting of a (presumably) mentally ill or extremely stressed individual just kind of turn me off.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: xdrpx on September 25, 2016, 06:18:37 AM Yes I've been watching Mr. Robot and have completed Season 1. I've also watched episode 1 of Season 2. I'm a real fan of their plots in every episode and have noticed references of Bitcoin and E-Coin (Evil corp's digital currency) in the show. I'm sure someone here would by now have come up with that alternate coin xD.

Post by: mobnepal on October 06, 2016, 04:14:21 PM Have watched MR.robot first few episodes but i am not getting enough time to watch other episodes however this series look really intresting one for tech lovers like me. One of my friend have recommended me to watch it as he knows my taste about science fiction and cyber intellegence.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: bitbunnny on October 06, 2016, 04:25:02 PM This series are for tech lovers, interesting scenario and it keeps you in front of the TV all the time. Haven't seen the second season but I've heard that is completely different and even more interesting. It shoud be more shows like Mr Robot, this is also one of the ways to promote Bitcoin and other technologies to wider audience and to people who are not necessary aknowledged with it.

Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Taki on October 06, 2016, 04:45:28 PM I have never watched it, but heard some information. But it is the first time I hear there is something about bitcoin there. It awakes my interest as bitcoin user and now I have a wish to watch it.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: CoolJakeB on October 06, 2016, 05:16:53 PM I have been watching Mr. Robot for the past two seasons and think it is a great show that does not get as much media exposure as it should. Everything that has happened on the show is possible to happen in real life, and it is something that we have to be aware of. On recent episodes, there have been talks of cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin to replace paper money. I am a fan of the show and can't wait for the start of the third season.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: ProtoAmorite21 on February 22, 2017, 04:35:36 PM This could be interesting. :o I had watched the Season 1 but I haven't watched season 2 yet. I could get some stuff from it. I'm looking forward to watching it nothing fascinates me more.
Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: blackhawkeye1912 on February 22, 2017, 08:46:28 PM Just wondering who here is watching Mr Robot? Bitcoin is all over it, especially in the 2nd season! Surprised there isn't a shitty alt called E coin yet. I never heard of it, nor familiar to it. what is that anyway? is that a kind of series on the television broadcasting it nationwide? and what channel do you watch it? I kind a bit curious about it :D Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot? Post by: Roboabhishek on February 22, 2017, 10:46:37 PM Never heard of this anime Mr Robot :D
I like the Japanise animes :DD like tokyo ghoul , parasites , etc The anime you are talking of is totally related bitcoin ? Title: Re: Anyone watching Mr Robot?
