Bitcoin and movies: a good chance for the cryptocurrency reputation?
There are lots of documentaries or short movies that aim at explaining how Bitcoin works, from Bitcoin: the end of money as we know it to The rise and the rise of Bitcoin, just to quote the most popular.
As you might know, also some great tv series such as C.I.S. Cyber, The Good Wife, Almost Human, decided to dedicate at least one of their episodes to the cryptocurrency, but they tend to talk about Bitcoin in a negative way, linking it to criminals and illegal activities.
