Altered Carbon is based on a cyberpunk novel that was aired last 2018 with its first season. The movie is set in the future for more than 300 years or in the early 25th century with great technology changing society.
With the recent release of season two last February 27, 2020, some cryptocurrency was featured in the latest episode like bitcoin, zcash, and monero. The scene shows that there's a repair shop where the prices there are in the value of cryptocurrencies with their logos.

Although it's just a series and it can't tell whether Bitcoin and other altcoins mentioned will survive for about 300 years, it's good to see that the creator of this movie see cryptocurrency as something futuristic that they used crypto in their movie to represent as means of payment even if it's just a small detail. Also the set up is like describing or showing a dark market in a physical store.
Obviously, it doesn't mean to predict nor emphasize that crypto will be the future currency but the idea of adding crypto is great as the movie focuses on future events. And it's also a small way of introducing cryptocurrency as something that you can relate to the future.
I bet someone here knows or has already watched this series even just the first season. But does anyone here has watched the fifth episode where this scene was shown? Wanna know if you noticed this small detail or not
