Not sure if this has been posted before, but a new cartoon on Youtube was launched yesterday. I enjoyed the trailer and the first episode, I think the amount asked for is worth 100x more than any ICO I've ever seen. What do you guys think? First Episode: Tears of a Clown here. Excerpt from the article: A hand reaches out in the dim, a keyboard clack. Command lines flood up on a screen to the tinkling of electronic clatter. An orange sphere enters view, the command to awake received. No, wait, a coin. With a marking below his face perhaps interpretable as the 'B' alphabet.
A confused, shaky greeting is the first utterance from 'B' as its creator looms over him. A cryptic message is issued. Then he is abandoned. Left to discover who or what his nature is in an unforgiving world.
Yet 'B' is not without friends.I don't know. I've watched the trailer, but it is just not my kind of animated series, I guess. Or maybe it's done rather poorly. It also seems weird to me that Bitcoin is looking for father, not those who are using it. Making Bitcoin a sentient being seems not the best thing to do to me. However, it's obviously better than "Crypto" that shows cryptos only as means of comitting financial crimes. At least the series are trying to promote Bitcoin, make basic knowledge about it accessible, easy and I guess fun for some people. So of course it's great that it exists, and we definitely need a wider range of ways to popularize Bitcoin. |

The motivation of people in bitcoin can only come with the price and the cartoon is also a great awareness that can help in the increase of the demand for the commodity in the market which can lead to increase in price at the end.

That's great. Bitcoin in cartoons will help to show its popularity and importance better. Cartoons will be watched by both adults and children.

Well cartoons has a way of making things look a bit childish and informal bitcoin is really more serious than that we not here for all that bitcoin is a revolutionary that is changing the future transcation process. But a little bit of fun won't be harmful mate  |

Watched the first episode and I can't say I like it. There is too much garbage in it, the jokes are stale and I can't see how it can make bitcoin fun again. But there is the basic information about bitcoin which can be informative to newbies in cryptocurrency. It can be reworked so that it can be appropriate and entertaining to more people.
I feel the same. The long boring story about a poor lonely coin walking around a grotesque world. A lot of death, poverty, abuse, vulgar language. Nothing that you would want to show your kids to make them interested and nothing you'd want to show your parents or grandparents. I don't know how it's supposed to make Bitcoin popular. It's not even funny. |

If you are talking about "Fun" the only thing I could think off is having a huge gain from Bitcoin not unless this cartoon made it happen I don't think it can make Bitcoin fun again. Speaking off the cartoon itself I think that there is that poor-man's Arrow vibe showing to it and I guess it will pass to the general audience who are adults watching it, the only thing I can think off is that it will only be bearable for people who are already into Bitcoin or the cryptocurrency industry.
The only thing that made it funny was the semi-accurate depiction of Vitalik lol I wonder if he'll come after the creators and sue them.. Don't forget Hal Finney that looks like in the real life. I don't get the humor in there, if it have and just find it boring like I just watched it in 4 minute and that's it. Where's New Jersey? United States. Where's United States? Earth! Mothafucker. |

This thread's a little unusual if I say so, from the smattering of responses. About half are saying the content is too vulgar and nsfw... You don't really see people complaining about adult themes in services section, meta or even in gambling. I'd expect Game of Thrones to get more but perhaps the visitors to Bitcoin Discussion are a different demographic, eh?
I'm not an artist anyway, but I probably wouldn't find a good audience if I ever had the skill or will to do a cartoon based in my hometown, or with homegrown values haha.
Thanks for the feedback guys.

It is not too vulgar. It is just not interesting. Generally, Bitcoin may be considered as money. At least that's how its users want to see it. So have you seen any interesting movie or cartoon about a dollar / euro banknote? There are many interesting stories about people earning, loosing or using money but there is nothing interesting just about money. |

I watched it, and I'm gonna be completely straightforward with my opinion, I liked it and I think it can really be helpful, informative and entertaining at the same time, they crack up some good jokes, don't adjust to the people saying "oh its too vulgar, too violent, etc." YES it may be like that but without that the cartoon would be plain, you'll see a lot of cartoons nowadays shows some levels of humour, and it may not be appropriate for all viewers but again this should be rated R18 so that the parents would know and would avoid letting their kids watch this, but if they want their kids to learn at the same time then I think it'd be great if they will guide their children while watching it, it's very informative don't let those silly jokes run you up, it's just to make the cartoon not all boring and just explaining about Bitcoin and stuff, writers know that and they know that if you'd just put informative stuff the viewers will then get boring eventually.

I personally am a fan of anime series and the video concept caught my gaze. Most people think anime are for children which they might be right about, but when there's a unique content being passed with it, then it's for everyone. Stimulating deeply on video gives an intern scope about what bitcoin and cryptocurrency generally would be in future. I love the video and I will recommend it to more audience to see.

Just watched the video, It's interesting and the same time bothersome. Every time he found a block he always pukes mini bitcoin. I guess the story is inspired by the US 2008 financial crisis which many US citizen has been hit by poverty.
Also in the first episode it still centralised if I am not confusing. If the character B (Bitcoin) dies then everything gone. I am interested to see what happen next. I felt there are some miss/wrong information but overall it's interesting. |

It would be awesome if one of those ICo signature campaign decided to give bonus for fun posts. It is easier to post memes and joken them to write about LN or coinjones.
But bizonacci, for me, is one of the funniest things ever. I always enjoy seeing his videos.

Can't understand the title, what does it mean to make bitcoin fun?
Btw I liked begining but was expecting absolutely different continue of situation. I think it will be nice to make something scifi related to bitcoin, make a mistic story of a man who got in jail, his bank accounts were frozen and etc. One day this man desided to run away, escape like it is in The Shawshank Redemption and since he couldn't get in public, he did everything with his last securely saved money, hired house, bought pc and started working on own currency which will be named as Bitcoin and then so on........ There can be a very log story.
Maybe not a bad idea, what do you think guys?

The problem is no that is vulgar, the problem is that it is only vulgar. Family Guy was (was!!!!) funny and vulgar, some movies are action packed vulgar without sex, some really good scenes from moves are vulgar but still send a message. This is just vulgar, I was watching it and only got a meh reaction. Plus that scene about the double spending and the old card was like watching a raccoon trying to play Hamlet, it was simply too painful, so fake, I simply had to skip two minutes.... Yeah, some people don't understand art but this is not about art, this is a poor scenario that lacks a lot and the problem is I feel like it wants to send a message but even they don't have a clue how to send and what kind of message it is. Bottom line, glad to see something trying to be done, disappointed on the results. |

The story seems good for a "story" and it seems actually based on events on bitcoin just made dramatic and fun to watch. I agree although that it seems vulgar at first with those illustrations on the wall. But it actually was gone throughout the video. Seems creator is showing what the actual environment he is seeing the world is.

His world must be really grim then because that's all that I can see in this video. Abuse, selfishness, loneliness. Like it was directed by some emo child. A number of scenes that were unneeded and boring like the one with those pissing hobos or punching Hal Finney. If you see art in this you are something else. |

I think I am just good at appreciating one's effort. You should try it. It keeps the positivity flowing. Even they find good stuff in the movie. |

is bitcoin fun before ? i dont think so . bitcoin for me is thrilling coz its like a roller coaster ride when the price can go up and down in a fast and unexpected manner . however this videos/movies is a good way to help bitcoin to be recognized by other individuals . i like how they title it . its true by the way , you can make friends if you use bitcoin . whether it is online or offline because you can ask someone and you can also teach someone in regards to bitcoin talks .
