It is likely that TJ Miller is a fan of bitcoin considering the amount of Bitcoin references in Silicon Valley. But at this point it is nothing more than subliminal message.
Normal people not associated with bitcoin are not gonna spot that sign probably. Interesting Easter Egg for sure tho.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I doubt if it was anything more than accidental. I watched the movie and didn't notice it. Still, go an watch it if you can, it is a fantastic and refreshing movie - but only if you're an adult.

Bitcoin is being popular more and more. It was also mentioned in some tv series like izombie and family guy. When griffin was asked how they can solve their financial problems, he responded, "Bitcoin".

Heard of the show before but I am not really into watching movie. It is always good to see Bitcoin "featuring" in the movie - even though it is just a small scene. I'm not sure if this will affect Bitcoin much but I am very sure that Bitcoin is getting more and more recognized by people as a currency or investment.

So sad! This profile does not appear as the #1 result (on anonymous) Google searches anymore.
Time to be active on the crypto forums again? Proud to be one of the few Legendary members of the Sparkie Red Dot!
Gonna put this on my resume if I ever join a cryptocurrency/blockchain industry!

the movie "dope" (2015) didn't get as widespread attention but the whole premise was around being forced to sell drugs for bitcoin and such. much more bitcoin mentions then one unnoticeable sign above a bar in a random scene.

If you can barely noticed the sign "Bitcoin accepted here", I doubt others would.  Anyway, I hope there is a new comic from Marvel about Bitcoin... :-) |

This seems to be just an oversight, it's not as if the camera specifically focused on the sign or anything.

I didn't see that one yet, I've read good reviews but didn't know it revolved around Bitcoin, sadly (and I'm sure it was not the film makers intention) it sounds like it ties Bitcoin with drugs, so more negative press even if any intelligent people would understand it's not BTC fault. However the association is just to engrained into society's mind eye, that's why I always say that Bitcoin will never be picked up by a huge serious company or business, they are only after the blockchain. |

So recently (today) I was watching Deadpool. It's that cool ass movie that just came out. So at that cool little bar in the movie that Deadpool hangs out at there's something in the upper left corner that I barely noticed. It's a sign that says "Bitcoin accepted here". After seeing that, my jaw dropped. Bitcoin just made it into pop culture! It's pretty awesome seeing this in such a popular movie! Pretty awesome stuff.
this is make me really want watch deadpool soon,i know this gonna be happen somtime,hollywood with their want or not,have open the door for bitcoin entrance to this industries. |

Yes, this is a good thing indeed, as mentioned it means bitcoin is entering mainstream pop culture and not just the realm of computer geeks.
Also, I fail to understand why all the replies thinking the placement of the sign in unintentional. Unless it is a super low budget film (think handheld camera type), every scene is filmed on a set. Checking online quick, seems the budget for the film was around $58,000,000, so scratch off low-budget. This is not a real bar, thus everything you see on camera was placed there for a purpose and approved by the director and prop personal. No, the bitcoin sign's placement was very intentional.

maybe it was a store in real life and not just a set lol. and they actually did accept bitcoin in real life. i doubt the producer put it there. |

I haven't watched it yet but I will look out for it now and will try to search more on it, which bar it was, was it real or just a set for the movie, if it was latter then you can be sure that the film makers put it there.

are you sure? I will watch deadpool next week. which scane? so when i watch I will not miss to view it. This is what I got on reddit Has anyone seen deadpool yet? In the bar that TJ Miller's character works at, you can see a "Bitcoin accepted here" neon sign in the upper left. Pretty cool news, but I think everyone is over-reacting, its a small sign that will show for a max of 20 seconds in a hour+ movie. Which nobody will either notice or care |
