Bitcoin is not a company, nor is it a brand. There is no official spokesman. Nakamoto Atoshi, the creator of the pseudonym, remains a mystery and is a prominent figure like Michael Saylor and Jack Dorsey’s champion “The Cause,” but Bitcoin is its core and its decentralized movement. But a better known face may support Bitcoin.
That’s exactly what comedian and actor TJ Miller wants. Known for his roles in Silicon Valley and Deadpool, Miller has emerged as an outspoken advocate for Bitcoin.
In the latest episode of decentralization with Cointelegraph, he sits with Gareth Jenkinson and shares how he fell out of the rabbit hole in Bitcoin, why he believes in financial sovereignty, and how comedy and cryptography have more in common than you think.
Coffee bitcoin
It all started with a casual coffee run in Manhattan. While in town for Bitcoin Investor Week, Gareth Jenkinson stopped by Romeo and Juliet Café, where his “Bit Conner Radar” left. There was nothing but TJ Miller sitting nearby. After all, I was happy to jump into an improvised conversation about Bitcoin.

Miller’s enthusiasm for Bitcoin is not just on the surface level. He believes in his role as a future for money and wants to use his platform to educate others and encourage them to take it seriously.
“You can tell me I have a passion for it, and that’s what I want to do is to be someone who will bring cultural awareness, spread awareness and help you get a trusted name and face in the Bitcoin community.
Growth list of famous supporters for Bitcoin
Miller is on a list of celebrities and public figures who have accepted Bitcoin. Even athletes like Tom Brady, musicians like Kanye West, and politicians like Senator Cynthia Ramis have publicly expressed their belief in the long-term value of Bitcoin.
However, while many well-known Bitcoiners focus on financial benefits, Miller is more interested in shaping culture.
His approach could be a game changer. Humor has always been a powerful tool for breaking down complex topics, and Bitcoin is no exception. As more well-known supporters move forward, the cultural narrative about Bitcoin continues to evolve from a niche financial experiment into a mainstream movement.
