Don't you think that using the same name as existing project, only replacing ".com" with ".info" is a bit unethical?

It's pretty confusing as many would think you're just another edition of the original Bitcoin Black Friday (founded by Jon Holmquist).

Here's the thread of the original BBF: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-black-friday-episode-4-a-new-hope-1244329

Site link: http://bitcoinblackfriday.com

The least you could do is mention that you are new project, not related to original. Instead you introduce "Thomas Silva" as a 'founder' (of what? website?).

Could you be more clear about it here and on your website, some might think you're trying to profit on someone else's hard work and trust that he earned over the last years.



Technically, the original project can file a petition to have the domain taken if they can prove BBF.info is attempting to exploit users that don't know the site they wanted was .com. That said, they're two separate projects and IMO, more is better, in the spirit of decentralization.

An obvious question is: how does the founder (you?) get profit out of the event? Do you have a sponsorship or take fees from merchants to add to let them add their deal to your site? Or is it just a charity-like event for bitcoin to create a date for a "bitcoin related deals"-sales event? Saw you are putting heavy effort on advertising this date and website, where do the funds come from - that's why I'm asking.
Its actually nice to see an event date like this one. Good luck!

Bitcoin Black Friday is a bit complicated. We make it simple for everyone!


BitcoinBlackFriday.info and its founder, Thomas Silva are pleased to announce the launch of the new website designed for merchants who will be participating and bringing you deals and discounts and customers who plan to spend bitcoins on Bitcoin Black Friday 2015. The new platform has been launched to prepare everyone with comprehensive information about Bitcoin Black Friday merchants, products, deals and coupons.

Bitcoin Black Friday is the most important commerce event of the year for Bitcoin merchants and Bitcoin users seeking serious discounts. The event will take place on November 27th with over 2.000 merchants expected to take part in this year’s Bitcoin Black Friday. Our team is already working hard to gather information about thousands of deals and discounts from all Bitcoin merchants with plans for Bitcoin Black Friday 2015 to make sure you don’t miss a single offer on the internet.

Over the years, Bitcoin Black Friday has gained a lot of importance and gained momentum. Along with discounts and sales, this day brings in a lot of stress and headaches as everyone is frantic and worried about knowing the best and exclusive Bitcoin deals available out there. There is a great deal of traffic and rush, servers work extremely slow so having a platform where one can find out about all of the bitcoin merchants and discounts is a life saver. BitcoinBlackFriday.info is that life saver with the sole purpose of providing you with information about the numerous and abundant deals and discounts from all Bitcoin merchants with plans for Bitcoin Black Friday 2015.

We will do everything to make sure that you are prepared well ahead of time and have all the information regarding the bitcoin black Friday merchants. We have a planned schedule where you will first be receiving the early planned Bitcoin Black Friday Offers and while you get accustomed to the plan, we send you the whole Bitcoin Black Friday guide that will further facilitate you regarding the event. Next we shall send you the second wave of Bitcoin Black Friday offers so you can choose the best ones beforehand. Don’t worry, we will also be sending you tips and tricks to make the most out of Bitcoin Black Friday and have a successful bitcoin black friday. Before the actual event on the 27th of November, we will be sending you the final wave of Bitcoin Black Friday pre offers (from merchants who accept to have their offers published before the official bitcoin black friday day) where you can have a look at everything and anything that you can require.
