Indie comedy "Dope" is the first to accept bitcoin for ticket sales. Customers can use payment gateway GoCoin to purchase tickets from MovieTickets.com., according to a report by The Wrap.

The movie is about a young geek named Malcolm who loves technology and hip hop. However, the key plot of the movie is the characters using bitcoin to sell drugs.

"The movie ('Dope') itself is using bitcoin for drugs," said Alex Winter, director of the documentary "Deep Web". "That's actually pretty accurate. There would have been no bitcoin without the Silk Road. These disruptive technologies often come into the mainstream via contraband or criminality."

Currently, users can purchase tickets now for more than 900 theaters across the U.S.
