Bitcoin mentioned on a TV show

January 20, 2014, 05:58:51 PM

I see lots of posts about 'How long till bitcoin comes up in a movie'.

Well we've reached a new milestone, bitcoin was mentioned in this weeks eps of Criminal Minds.
It was used a payment system for prostitutes, which obviously shows as to how the media views it, but at least it's something.

That particular milestone was reached ages (internet time) ago.

If you aren't the sole controller of your private keys, you don't have any bitcoins.

A task on which team can make the most bitcoin by posting their referral links all over the forums.

Haha, that'd actually be a good task. I love The Apprentice and the twats on there. I wonder when the next series is?

Yeah it's always good viewing. Not sure when the next one is. I always love the introductions they give themselves right before making themselves look like idiots. 'I'm the alpha and the omega, I'm a lion and the next Apprentice'. Yeah...but do you own Bitcoin? Tongue

Why aim for the sky when there's footprints on the moon? Why aim for the moon when there's a rover on Mars? Yeah, they're classic arrogant megalomaniacs, but you've got to be a twat/'character' to even get on there.

Series 10 has been pushed back till autumn because of the World Cup apparently. http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/apprentice-next-series-pushed-back-2652853

Miniature tyrants in the making. Those little gobshites are even worse because they're just as arrogant as the pricks who are ten years older than them on the adult apprentice. Imagine what levels of douchebaggery they're going to be at in the future.

Bitcoin is well and truly the talk of the town whether it be TV, radio shows or the internet. Opinions remain varied but one thing is for certain, bitcoin is heading mainstream. Hold onto your hats boys and girls!

Heading mainstream - I tend to agree. But I'm not sure if you're inferring price is primed to rise because of that? I dont think it will personally. Not for some time yet.
