Mr Robot new episode came out yesterday and It seems like Bitcoin has been mentioned, I didn't watch the episode yet but according to telegraph.co.uk : Several eagle-eyed viewers noticed that the new episode featured a Bitcoin-branded truck. With the global economy in freefall following the finale of season one, perhaps the digital payment system has overtaken the US dollar as a more stable unit of currency. See more about the episode here : http://www.telegraph.co.uk/on-demand/2016/07/11/how-the-internet-reacted-to-the-mr-robot-season-2-leak/

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Well this looks like an armored truck from the screenshot or something but this begs the question why should there be a Bitcoin-branded armored truck if we are dealing with a digital currency here because it looks like that truck is transporting cash and this is an oxymoron Anyway thank you for reminding me to start watching the new season of Mr.Robot. I really had a blast with the first one and looking forward to the new episodes. And mentioning Bitcoin in the mass media is always a good thing I guess.

In serial Person of interest bitcoin is mentioned more then once, but almost always like some transaction hiden from government. Or someone selling something on black market and main currency for paying is bitcoin. Person of interest is nice serial. Maybe future gonna be like that, maybe already it is like that, we can discuss about how much governments spy on us, and how.

Bitcoin is going globally, i watches mr.Robot the first 5 episodes but it started to be very complicated, its not easy to understand the story. As far as I know i have seen bitcoin was mentioned also in many other movies, and also how bitcoin works, about bitcoin mining etc.

Yeah, Person of Interest is definitely one of the best series I've ever watched, they also mentioned SilkRoad in a Season 3 episode.

looks more like a breadtruck to me but in the context of the series, which ive never seen but now will have to watch when i get a chance, maybe its full of something like sealed printed paper wallets, each with defined amount that is easily verifiable. kinda like paper money but with actual value. too bad we cant read the qt code on the door.

Is it a big deal? BitCoin was also mentioned in The Blacklist, actually there was a transaction happening there between two gangs, actually I started using bitcoin after I saw it there. Though I had heard about bitcoin but I was just shying away and did not dive into it yet, but after a few days of that episode, I thought what the heck, lets just do it.

And mentioning Bitcoin in the mass media is always a good thing I guess. looks like a "postal truck" (dont know how it's called in US, but the literal traduction is that. it would be USPS/DHL truck ). to me it's like everyone is buying online and paying in bitcoin.

I am more excited with Season 2 than bitcoin being mentioned in an episode. A lot of things to watch out for this season.

If you look closely, it seems as though there are a QR code also pasted on the side of the truck. It would be cool if that goes to a Bitcoin address and if that address was connected to some sort of charity. We would see some real media interest if everyone started to donate money to the address and it collected a few thousand dollars from the Bitcoin community.
The next trend you will see, could be people doing the same thing with buses and buildings and people looking for that in these episodes. ^heh^

There was also a QR code in his notebook that went to http://conficturaindustries.com/. I also saw a fuzzy sign in the background at the bar that looked like the bitcoin logo. It is interesting that they may be highlighting the fiat scam this season which might allow Bitcoin to play a role.
