Hey got a buddy with over 120k libertarian subscribers on Youtube. Very popular group of news guys living in LA California right now. I don't want to say who they are right now because some of you might know who they are, but they are very popular and very active in the libertarian community. I was just talking to one of them about California coin and what's going on right now and he seemed to be interested in maybe working with you on trying to increase the California coin brand.
Any suggestions?
Oh and I was also thinking, what about making a crap load of paper wallets and just passing them out at Cali events, like those cannabis farmers market that just got temporarily shut down in LA. The paper wallets can help teach Californians about the goals of california coin. Give out the paper wallets for free and ask the vendors to accept them at the market for trade in small promo/sample stuff at first until the market get's some traction.
Explain to your buddy how these coins can grow over time and if he doesn't understand too quickly I would reference this article from Business Week
He says he bought his first batch of virtual currency, 5,000 coins, at 20¢ each. On April 10, Bitcoins traded for as much as $258 each.

Yea, gotcha. That's not very convincing and it has nothing to do with the value of California coin. It's not a matter of understanding crypto currency, it's about how much effort is put into it and I'm not going to just start hyping it if there is no dev support. Know what I mean?
This has to be a group effort, not just using people with access to others and pushing people to buy without there being incentive to use it.
This will directly affect his standing with his group. If he does this and it becomes cali coin P&D #2 then it would be bad for him also.
I'm sure we can figure something out. Does not have to be today, slow and steady wins the race.
