In the second year in a row, Law and Order SVU (seson 16, episode 7) mentions Bitcoin as a form of payment acceptance by child sex traffickers. One of these days the show might mention it in a better light...

I agree with OP. But I suppose its the lesser of two evils. The worst case scenario is nobody is talking about it at all.

Better not relate to that. We can find other means to promote bitcoin but definitely not through that. When bill gates mention bitcoin that is already some exposure, so why are we so desperate?associate it with this will leave very bad impression on people's thinking. I would rather have no publicity at all.

Too bad Bitcoin has been mentioned by Bill Gates in a critic way like saying "it will not be the one that makes it as the to-go digital payment". http://insidebitcoins.com/news/bill-gates-3-criticisms-of-bitcoin/29139

Mentioning Bitcoin as a form of payment makes for a better tv drama than the old school handing over of a briefcase full of cash. Got to be cutting edge to get an emmy....

Actually it's a good thing is one way.
Two perverts are known to the police and the perverts make an exchange with a suitcase of cash. The police would have to follow them, watch them, collect evidence of the exchange, so that it can be used in the court of law.
Two perverts are known to the police and the perverts make an exchange using bitcoins. The police would simply get a warrant and search their house, confiscate their computers and have evidence of the perverts' wallet and transactions to use in the court of law. This option is quicker and evidence would be stronger than the first option above.
The police should be thanking Satoshi.

I'd rather no one talk about it at all than to have people believe Bitcoin users are all drug taking child molesters. The only way for it to go main stream now is for the entire country to turn into a collection of Bitcoin loving junkie child molesters.

So how do they know a payment was even made? It's not like the perverts would post their address on bitcointalk hoping for donations and then pay directly from it.

Mere exposure effect... It's a thing. Well it's just part of the growing pains Bitcoin has to go through. As long as people don't really grasp it and haven't had experience using it, those things will continue to cast a shadow on Bitcoin. If Bitcoin makes it, those things will fade away!

I should have gotten into Bitcoin back in 1992...

Never heard of this show.. anyway, it is great that Bitcoin is mentioned on show again. Also, I (we) hope next time show will mention Bitcoin in a 'cleaner' form.

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!
