I've been watching this interesting American drama on Amazon Prime.  It's a pre-apocalyptic series based around the efforts of the US government, and a particular tech organisation, to save humanity from impending doom.  Said impending doom is one of the usual extinction threats we face; a giant asteroid.

At some point, no spoilers, investigations into a clandestine group reveal payments by crypto, bitcoin to be specific, for illegal activities.  They then go on to portray Bitcoin as a "*bad thing*" mainly used by terrorists, drug dealers and other such shady figures, to hide and launder money.

At the point of recording that series, I suppose we might have been in a bear market.  The price of bitcoin has gone up nearly 10x since then.  Imagine someone hearing about bitcoin for the first time while watching the show and coming to the conclusion that it, and other cryptos, are "criminal". Said person would not have been encouraged to invest in some because of this.  Had they cancelled their Netflix or Amazon Prime subscription and DCA'd into bitcoin instead, not only would they still have that money, but nearly 10x as much.  Had they picked some micro then hundreds of thousands of dollars, perhaps even millions of dollars, wouldn't be far-fetched a possibility.

Peace & Love,

*Adé*
