Ukrainian movie mentions Bitcoin!

[kryptqnick]

Yesterday, I went to watch a Ukrainian movie and was pleasantly surprised that it casually mentioned Bitcoin. I know that it's pretty common these days for American TV shows and movies to have some crypto references, but it's really nice when something local follows the trend. Ukrainian movies are generally far from being good, but they're slowly getting there, trying to find their style and place.
The movie is Luxembourg, Luxembourg, and it is definitely one of the best Ukrainian movies so far (but again, the bar is very low), and Bitcoin was casually mentioned in a dialogue. A guy asked his wealthy son-in-law what kind of currency would be a good investment nowadays, and the son-in-law replies that it's Bitcoin because nowadays, Bitcoin rules the world. I was pleased to see such a casual and positive mention in a movie that's not about technologies or finances at all (it's a social tragicomedy or something like a slice of life).
Do you know of local movies that mention Bitcoin? By 'local' I mean those that aren't American or British, not something that people widely watch all over the world.

I don't know of local movies that mentions BTC, but i know the name BTC is very common today, many people who mention it in all walks of life do not know exactly what it is, and they each have their own meaning of what BTC is. The media has a lot written about BTC and crypto, they say it is a scam, tool for money laundering, ponzi, a means to fast wealth, etc, this is why i don't really get excited when we talk about BTC being mentioned in a movie or in other programs. BTC is talked about globally, but the percentage of people who truly know its purpose as a censorship resistant currency is still low.

Bitcoin is not prohibited in Ukraine even before the war started by Russia. I don't know how many Ukrainian movies in which Bitcoin is mentioned?

Is this movie the first local movie that mentions about Bitcoin?

I couldn't recall the names or titles of the few ones I've watched that has bitcoin being pronounced in them or cryptocurrency since bitcoin is falling under crypto as well, there are nice and interesting movies in their numbers about bitcoin i heard people watched before and i think there's also a thread whereby a member take time to list out interesting movies that bitcoin or cryptocurrency was being mentioned, though i can't say of them if they are Hollywood movies or from the local movies industries they were made and they have been interesting to watch.

I've seen mentions to Bitcoin in kid's TV series. I don't remember the name of the TV Show but it was a kid's show where they mentioned Bitcoin as means of payment for some goods the kid's (characters of the TV Show) where purchasing and didn't have any shiat coins!

Actually bitcoin is mentioned quiete a lot in current TV series and movies, much more then I feel like it is talked about it in real life. Maybe it is because especially TV series always try to catch up new stuff to stay innovative and modern. It is always appreciated if they mention bitcoin in a positive way, since this is often not the case. Mostly bitcoin is talked about as the currency of illegal deals.

This sounds interesting, I've not watched any Ukraine movies lately but I will look into this one, I remember watching two Korean movies where Bitcoin was made mentioned, and also two Chinese movies where a gambler was regretting not buying Bitcoin instead of using his life savings on gambling.

He thought that making money with gambling is faster and Instant, and with Bitcoin you need to hold for a while if not longer before you can make money, he made a wrong choice that cost him his family, things fall apart and his grand mother had to look after his kids. I will look into Luxembourg, thanks for the information.

I have not watched any indigenous movie that Bitcoin was mentioned. This might be because the movie industry in my country is still developing and the restriction placed on the use of Bitcoin. It is nice to hear that a movie in Ukraine mentions this uncommon currency. I hope the movie is translated into English language because I will like to take a look at it in my spare time. The movie didn't just mention Bitcoin but spoke about it in a friendly manner. It even advertised the currency, indirectly advising people to invest in Bitcoin. If I have the financial power, it would not be bad to sponsor a film that will promote Bitcoin in my location. Maybe, the government might ban the film because of its negative approach toward Bitcoin but before then many people would have viewed it.

I don't know much about movies that include Bitcoin in their dialogue. but that sounds good to those who do know Bitcoin. and for whatever reason, maybe the scenario writer added it because Bitcoin is being talked about a lot worldwide. and it can be a concern for more people to enjoy their films.
maybe, documentaries related to El Salvador and its Bitcoin adoption could be made. it will be an exciting film. Or perhaps the film already exists?

Bitcoin is the new trend of the day, and most importantly when it comes to investment, and as such we shouldn't be surprised seeing movie producers and writer diving into to telling it's story to the world at large about Bitcoin. But however, I have not seen any local movie which Bitcoin is randomly mentioned, but there is one which I downloaded last week Black Lotus 2023, which tells the story about "how an ex-special forces operative wages a one-man war against a drug lord who kidnapped his late friend's daughter, after her stepdad who is the CEO of Bitcoin trading company lost the fund of the leader of the gang of over 50million euros in Bitcoin as a payback for his lost funds". and I love it since I'm a big fan of action movies.

Pretty common for me too.

But the FIRST ever series that used the Bitcoin and also sweetly introduced Bitcoin to the world was “Big Bang Theory”. Honestly that was the first time I ever heard about bitcoin but it was way way casual for me. The mention was only in one of the context where the friends discuss about some Physics theory and end up talking about advancement in the technology. That is the speech where Sheldon the lead guy in the series mentions about Bitcoin.

That was definitely happening for many people around the worlds and fans of it. After that various series started doing it all the time. Mostly criminal based series and series who has FBA involvement.

Unfortunately, the mention of Bitcoin comes accidentally or is associated with strange technology or money to buy on the black market or it is an investment solution that makes you rich or other things far from why Bitcoin was created.
I hope that the films will touch on some technical things or the real use of Bitcoin so that the user will receive better information.

I want to watch some movies and documentaries, what are your tips?

I haven't come across any movie where bitcoin is talked about or mentioned in my locals but some time last last year when the price of bitcoin was around 12k and 16k, a lot of local content creators in my area was mocking bitcoin investors using their content because they felt the price of bitcoin will not rise again. I believe some movie producers are yet to talk about bitcoin in their movies because my country is not yet in support of bitcoin even though the country is one of the most users of bitcoin in Africa.

I have not see a movie especially local movie bitcoin been mention, most at times where people do hear of bitcoin is from social media, because the reason why people doesn't include bitcoin in their local movies is because of some of the countries doesn't support bitcoin and mentioning name of bitcoin will be against the law of country fails to legalise bitcoin, so most Hollywood and nollywood industries doesn't do what will make government of their country to rise against them, most of the people who knows bitcoin have the experience of bitcoin through social media

Bitcoin has been gaining traction in popular culture ever since. But actually, when it comes to bitcoin, there's often a negative portrayal of it in the media, which is often influenced by the particular plot and story being told. This negative depiction stems from the early adoption of Bitcoin by several online marketplaces that facilitated the sale of illicit goods and services. Although Bitcoin has grown far beyond its original reputation, its connection to criminal activities persists in popular culture. Hence the acts of money laundering and illegal transactions related to bitcoin contained in many works of fiction.

I don't know any local movies that mention Bitcoin. And I think it seems that there is common for some dialogue between movie stars that mentions Bitcoin because if I'm not mistaken, I've seen it in a few movies but I forgot the title.

And if more of those films have dialogue that mentions Bitcoin, people can get curious and search for it on search engines. This will fuel the growth of people who know crypto or Bitcoin first. And it's good for adoption at the local level, meaning people around who are starting to know about bitcoin or crypto.

Bitcoin is not something new anymore as so many persons already know that bitcoin is the best investment that one can ever think of in these present days. People knows the value of bitcoin and you shouldn't also forget that the films that we watch is always teaching us about something or sending a message to us. Most films are educative,so I am not surprise to hear this. Very soon the truth will be known worldwide about bitcoin as the most valuable assets because some people only learn and believe on what they see or watch on films,since these actors are highly influencial. I have watched my local film when bitcoin was mentioned but the film is not popular.

[mendace]

I think I've never seen a Ukrainian film so I can't judge the quality but now that you make me think about which local film mentions Bitcoin I'm pretty sure that here in Italy some films have done it, I just have to try to remember which one it is.  As soon as I remember, I'll let you know.

Not really sure if bitcoin has been mentioned in our local movies, perhaps it might have been, but maybe I'm not aware of it. Reason being is that bitcoin is very open in our country and adoption is slowly growing and the government doesn't have any problems with crypto as long as they are being regulated and exchanges are getting their requirements.

So it's good to hear that in your local movie industry, it's also slipping in and maybe who knows, the director or the producer is also a bitcoiner and subliminally sending messages to the movie goers about bitcoin and the potential of it to disrupt everything.

The mention of bitcoin in movies is nothing new, and nothing to be surprised about, you should have heard bitcoin mentioned in millions of movies, except you are the type that watches a movie maybe once on six month.

Both on local and international level, the mention of bitcoin is pretty common, here in Nigeria, several Nigerian movies I've watched mentioned bitcoin, and there Is one which seems like an American movie which I am still looking out to watch when I have time, the title is Bitcoin heist.
