In case you haven't seen the thread, piratemyfilm.com now accepts bitcoin: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-max-keisers-website-piratemyfilmcom-now-accepts-only-bitcoins-64802

Thanks Tony!

The Project mentioned in the thread (http://www.piratemyfilm.com/projects/304, Screw Banks - Use Bitcoin) seems to be funded already. It still makes sense to reserve shares, I guess, should people chicken out.

Sad also the topic changed to "Bitcoin Prague & Anti-ACTA Stockholm (EUROP)". mew.

So have you talked to them?
What happened with "Bitcoin Prague"?


Read 2 posts above about what happened to "Bitcoin Prague". It was merged with another topic.

I haven't talked to them since Prague. The owner of the project is bit-pay. Bit-Pay is in contact with them, so maybe https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/bitpay-business-solutions-31293 (user Bit-Pay Merchant Solutions) knows more. That's Tony Galippi of bit-pay. He's really nice. Should you ask him about it, be sure to post relevant info here.

I'm excited about these films, just don't currently have the time/energy to find out more.


Its in the works.  Max's team is about 2 months behind.  They (just tihs week) finally started integrating Bit-Pay on the PMF website.  After that he is working on the dividend program.  The film is in the works, they are just way behind on everything.

there's a new project listed on piratemyfilm

http://www.piratemyfilm.com/projects/304 : Screw Banks, Use Bitcoins

Max and Stacey introduced it in their newsletter on Jan 31st:

Quote from: Stacy Herbert
PirateMyfilm is one of these competitors hoping to hasten the demise of an increasingly hostile IP regime. No doubt Disney will soon issue a takedown notice claiming they own the rights to 'piracy' reserved for content specific to Johnny Depp in the Caribbean. As the internet is still free, however, I've just reserved shares in Screw Banks, Use Bitcoins because I'm very interested to see what Tony from Bitpay.com comes up with. I saw his presentation in Prague a few months ago and he actually got me set up with a tiny little bitcoin account. It was through his simple explanation and by the actual use of the bitcoins that I finally understood how simple and efficient it is to operate without the middleman getting in the way. In my mind, bitcoin is a great disintermediation play for online transactions. Hopefully, it will succeed. If not, that is how the free market works (currently available only online). You live or die by the quality of your service or product. Imagine that?

Lets hope piratemyfilm has a Bitcoin payment option soon.

You can send back to this address 15So2KKtcnBs7Vpx1TNcajSohba5ScoTSr.


woops. I didn't require proof from you. But I think I remember you said here you would send litecoins and the 2K LTC popped up. So I just sent the BTC to the supplied address.

sorry, I overlooked you msg before.

EDIT: I'm keeping track of payback in this post: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.640461, which also contains claim instructions

The "payback" dividend of 1 BTC has been made on 04/12/2011-21:29 as said in my last post.

I see people are trading MAXKEISER.bitcoinfilm for 0.75 BTC.

To whoever is buying: you are buying a worthless issue. There will be no more dividend payments.

so, I talked to Max Keiser briefly at the bitcoin conference in Prague (the conference was great).

I think it's now finally public info: piratemyfilm will be accepting BTC for payment of shares and they will start to pay dividends in Bitcoin, too.

I think this is great news.

The gust of my conversation with Max is that it is not possible to enable my account to reserve more than 5 shares. The background for this is that he wants to avoid few people to buy all of the shares.

I'm unsure what to do know, but suggest we wait for the "bitpay" buttons to actually appear on piratemyfilm.com. Currently I think the best route would now be to give you people back your bitcoins so you can buy shares of the project yourselves on piratemyfilm.com.

Stacey Herbert and Richard Bluestein where filming material for the project in Prague (at the conference and at the pub(s)). They interviewed Amir, for example, and of course filmed the panel discussiond and Max' talk about himself and PMF.

It seems Max is now officially a bitcoin supporter (see his recent tweets).

Thoughts?

lol, the project is >100% funded

just read this on PMF:

Quote from: max
bitcoin prague is now 100% funded, but it makes sense to reserve some shares anyway to account for defaults. @rishey has all the footage

The funds needed for the project was reduced from $1,500 to $300. Probably because bit-pay.com payed their flights. Thanks bit-pay!

so: YAY! Look forward to a great film!

It's payback time.

I'm aborting this operation and as promised will pay back (if possible and not wished for by donator otherwise) the money you guys donated.

For GLBSE it's simplest: I'll just pay back all the money received by IPO (41 BTC) as dividends... doing it now... done, divident payed: 41 BTC to 41 shares -> 1 BTC/share.

For the donation address it's harder. I said I would send people back their money if they request it, otherwise I will send the money to the bitcoin faucet, so please make your claims (here or via pm to molecular).

Should you want the money sent back to some other address, you must proove you are the owner of the address used to send the donation. You can do this as follows:

#> bitcoind signmessage
"please pay back to address "

post the message and the signature that is output by above command here or via pm.

Here's a list of the donations and the status (will update this list):

  • 18SWbLBmFAnHQew74UyQrVPAnUMBaMByfz, BTC 100, donator requested I should "use the BTC to fund some other worthwhile Bitcoin-related cause of  your [my] choice"
  • 14ywF3yUndbD5D6SQdWYZS5upDmiJDrcMy, BTC 1, -> faucet
  • 1Fqog92mjEH22kdfjJthuLDoZBnhfR2mMW, BTC 3, -> faucet
  • 1EopQJtANU99WJKQXGMixkcTDX6P8AR5fi, BTC 0.25, -> faucet
  • 1PkufEVizwrnRQEz9zZgfH3kgXFRQLckRq: BTC 5, -> faucet
  • 1Jzd7HrhZ7jqnNn2vXAAz39exvX3zz8Tt: BTC 0.16, -> faucet
  • litecoin donation by frequant: BTC 12.0304629, payed back BTC: a78775ba912e8206a6ae6a651bda6c6d375e93b3ec94690bd093b1f9408be7ac
  • litecoin donation by coblee: BTC 12.129064, told me to consider the money a donation for my kicks-ass litecoin graphs, which I will put back up soon, EDIT: they're back

I sent BTC 1 + 3 + 0.25 + 5 + 0.16 = BTC 9.41 to the faucets donation address 15VjRaDX9zpbA8LVnbrCAFzrVzN7ixHNsC. tx_id: 3310f4774209ddf17f9d7e1030bc0dd85da598d185f968e330a5423b90b0d0ff

you can verify via blockexplorer that this list is complete: http://blockexplorer.com/q/getreceivedbyaddress/1GhJ9QpShc9t1jWNgx8DX8nA44GYojHhE3. The sum is BTC 133.56952689

Thanks to all donators!

I'm pretty sure we played a sizeable part in Max Keisers relationship to Bitcoin and I'm more than confident that this will pay out some point early next year Wink.

I think he was already a bitcoin supporter, but maybe is more official now.
He's a great ally.
