There is no doubt that blockchain technology has successfully captured people’s collective consciousness and the evidence is clear by the many references and mentions it receives in pop culture.
It is no wonder that our time will be deemed as the age of crypto currency when even popular songs start mentioning the digital coins! However, what we’re about to dig into is far cooler and shows the level of influence that blockchain technology has had in recent times.
Marvel has now joined the crypto bandwagon when it referenced Bitcoin in a new comic titled ‘Hunt for Wolverine – Adamantium Agenda #1’!

The super casual and hilarious reference popped up in an exchange between a character who feels cryptocurrency seems a bit risque for the job when he is asked to substitute it for the more orthodox “briefcase of unmarked bills.”

This news also garnered some of the most hilarious responses from Marvel and Bitcoin fans on Twitter;
