Krusty has lost everything on bitcoin!

The March Towards Mass Adoption

Bitcoin is taking further steps towards mass adoption, now featuring in the popular freemium game, The Simpsons: Tapped Out.

In the game, Homer has neglected his work, playing mobile games instead of monitoring Springfield nuclear power station.

In the new quest, called Crypto Cool, added to the game this week, the player is first tasked with getting Martin to mention blockchain numerous times, without ever explain what it is. At one point during the dialogue, he says “I mined some bitcoin with my computer, and then the value went through the roof” and also says he had never heard of blockchain “until last week. But now I act like I’m an expert on it!”

Once you’ve completed this task, you will also be asked to encourage three youngsters to mine bitcoin on their computers.

The Simpsons : Tapped Out game adds an interesting new update.
