Topic: Big Bounty: 1,000 BTC (One Thousand BTC) Shared Among A Small Group Of Writers. - page 3. (Read 7317 times)

I'm interested!


I may expand in time. I had to run.

This, while not a scam, is likely a pipe dream. 

I'm interested.

I love writing, according to the people around me, I've way too much imagination. So I think that I qualify for that kind of Bounty.

Now, I have to understand what your spaghetti-adver-teasing-cryptic message means. After reading it a few times, I had to bring it to a specialist.

It was a very old shop in a dirty street. The kind of shop that exists in every city but that you probably don't want to know. As soon as I opened the door, I was hit by the dusty sweet smell. A very old man was buried under the biggest glasses I have ever seen. Handing him your message, he looked at my face and smiled, discovering plenty of yellow tooth.
— That's a rough translation of the Voynich manuscript, he said.
— Ah…

Surprised, I was unable to answer more.
— Is there anything else I could do for you, young man?
— But, how can I claim the 1000 bitcoins then?

With one hand, he started to stroke his beard.
— Well, young man, are the rules clear?
— Not at all. It looks like there is no rules.
— Don't you think that rules are like barriers? They are there to prevent abuses.
— Maybe.
— So, like a horse in an empty field, you are asking me for barriers in order to know where to run?
— That's not the way I see it.
— When someone scream "Go!", you can observe two kind of persons. Those who run and those who ask "Where should I go?"
— And I'm the one asking? regretting immediately this obvious pun.
— When there is no rules, freedom is the rule. And only a few brave men can accept that rule. People invent other rules to protect themselves against the fear of freedom.
— Will I earn 1000bitcoins by listening to silly pseudo-philosophical quotes?
— You learn quickly young man. Go and don't tell our conversation to anyone.
— Is that a rule?

He laughed, I went out of the shop and now, alone in front of my computer, I'm wondering: what is this 1000BTC bounty for?

Yes, I did:

1) I have been working for years preparing to launch over 80 to 100 unique Web Projects all "at about the same time", during a truly unforgettable series of Epic Adventures "for Geeks, Entrepreneurs, and other Fun people."

Did anyone understand what the hell this is about … ?

This is a huge cluster of projects to develop the Bitcoin economy.

Update/Intro:

I've been very busy, thank you for the entertaining range of responses.
Here is part of my reply to a PM received today:

1) ...looking for people with imagination, creativity, sense of adventure, etc.
2) Some of my best ideas could be quickly copied, so I purposefully "allowed some confusion" at this time.
3) More details to follow...





Hello All,
My writing style is a bit unusual, this is one reason you see such a large bounty proposed for Good Writers.

In it's current state Bitcoin offers us a fantastic world of opportunities.
Over a year ago Bitcoin was a genuine Once-In-A-Lifetime moment for people who acted decisively at the right time.

Once-In-A-Lifetime: 1,000 BTC Shared Among A Small Group Of Good Writers

Almost anyone with a keyboard and a touch of imagination can attempt to claim they are offering you The Next Big Thing.
Nobody else in the Whole Wide World can say...

• You will now be a part of the greatest Once-In-A-Lifetime opportunity in all of human history!

No person in the Whole Wide World can say that, and actually produce the series of surprises you are about to enjoy.

What?
What did you say?
No other person in the Whole Wide World can produce the series of fun surprises you are about to enjoy.

That sounds a bit extreme, are you crazy?
Bit crazy? If I am 'nuts', then I'm looking to upgrade to a wildly successful, eccentric person.


OK, you have my attention for now, what is this?
You need to know these important highlights:
1) I have been working for years preparing to launch... Edit (see #2 below)
2) Both #1 and #2 have been modified, you will see why in a moment.
3) The first batch of writing will be related to our crowd-funding efforts. Almost the entire bounty will come from 'investors' and early adopters.
4) You never have to nervously wait for me to pay you. Investors and early adopters receive an incentive (a discount) if they are willing to make a split payment; This way you get paid directly for your good writing skills.


What IS This?
Our best, highest-paid writers will need to have decent writing skills combined with at least some amount of imagination.
Instead of clearly telling you too much at the start here is a fun twist:

How To Enter:

• Minimal Effort = "I am interested, please give more details" (or something similar, in your own words)

If there is a lack of people who give a greater effort, then you will get a chance.

• Greater effort (Recommended) = Please enter by posting a brief sample of your writing (Max 4 or 5 paragraphs - Min 2 or 3 Sentences)

The subject is "What Is This?"
Based on the information given* (plus your imagination),

• What could I (we) be planning that no one in Human History has ever attempted before?

*Spoiler Alert! There is much more info in the bottom section to help with your writing.

Deadline for entry = Edit: Changed to TBD/ Deadline not currently known, or ~30 (Greater effort) entries whichever comes first.
Total # of Winners = TBD: ~4 or 5 large bounties and probably many smaller ones | Note: 1,000 BTC is a realistic goal, IMO. The final number will obviously depend on 'investors', crowd-funding, early adopters, and other sources of funding.

Tip #1: If your core ideas are so valuable that you choose not to risk sharing, then do what I did and write an exciting teaser.
Tip #2: If we are blessed with a large number of responses the earliest ones will have some advantage (not buried on page 5);
You can reserve a spot by quickly answering "I am interested", and then come back later to edit your post.  
Tip #3: Info at the bottom (last section) will help fuel your imagination. The question "What Is This?", still is not fully answered.

Hope you have fun, and remember the sky is the limit!



'Investors' and early adopters:
Of course you will need more details.
1) I have been working for years preparing to launch over 80 to 100 unique Web Projects all "at about the same time", during a truly unforgettable series of Epic Adventures "for Geeks, Entrepreneurs, and other Fun people."
2) Some projects, certainly not all, will be related to the Bitcoin economy.
3) FYI: 'Investors' is intentionally in ' ''s since we are not currently a registered investment opportunity. (more details to follow)
If you want to be alerted regarding valuable "early-response discounts" then feel free to respond here, or PM me, and you will be notified ASAP, thank you.
