Now that alt coins are on the rage, I envision a South Park episode where everybody in the entire town starts their own alt coin, each trying to get their creation to go mainstream.
Of course, they're all traded on the Fat Ass Exchange (FAE, for short), each with a different hashing mechanism, i.e. script, to prevent an Area 51 attack.

Someone should flesh this out, write a full synopsis, and pitch it to Trey Parker.

I thought about a bitcoin SP episode a couple of weeks back. They are so on point when it comes to current affairs that I am positive this is already in the making. |

With a cameo of Max Keiser. Oh course, all the alt miners would need mining equipment. Enter none other that Mr HashFastKing himself...  |

You must truly be the most interesting bitcoiner in the world.  Bruce Wagner! Hahaha O, what history and culture lies in the Bitcoin space! |
Buy a TREZOR! Premier BTC hardware wallet. If you're reading this, you should probably buy one if you don't already have one. You'll thank me later.

 And on the window, left and/or right of the door, is a list of all the alt coins they accept. And all the billboards around South Park are a variant of the following...  ...all placed by none other than...  Alt Coin Jesus |

The episode opens with...  ...then, after a few seconds, Randy Marsh excuses himself from the pile, stating that he has something to do (we learnt he wants to check his alt coin miner). The next day, the pile is only half the size due to others allocating more and more time to their own alt coin. Subsequent days, the pile is down to only two people, whereupon one leaves two seconds after the pile starts, leaving a laggard, whereupon he, too, starts Laggard Coin (LAG). |
