Congratulations, sounds great! :-)
What will you need from the community, for help?
Any ideas if/how BTC100 would fit there, or be continued, or be swallowed?
Ente
Well that would be totally up to you guys but I personally registered BitcoinCharity.org because I do like this BTC 100 idea to an extent, but I think in addition to just pledging bitcoin to the charity that agrees to accept BTC? We need to offer them cool and EASY ways TO ACTUALLY ACCEPT it as well.
ONE Idea I had was the pyramid which I mentioned in an earlier post (
http://donatemedia.org/?page_id=105 having our own bitcoin api developed for it as we speak), we could easily make those blocks go to TOP 100 Donors instead of TOP 10. So to allow the charities we solicit to accept bitcoin, they would just come to my Bitcoincharity.org site, enter the receiving wallet address they'd like to use and a little code snippet is generated using our own api and everything (sort of like what blockchain.info does for their donor buttons), and the charities implement the snippet onto their site and they then can request the $1k or whatever the donation pledge was once the charity has been verified. Good way to also advertise bitcoin 100 too, because there could be a little link under the pyramid that directs possible NEW charities to bitcoin 100 as well.
And it doesn't have to the PYRAMID Script, we could look into development of other cool scripts in addition to the PYRAMID script, the bitcoin auction scripts are nice and would benefit charities who sell donated goods, bitcoin charity raffle scripts could be developed, etc... I'm just throwing ideas out there right now, but the decision is ULTIMATELY up to ALL of you who have contributed and built up Bitcoin 100 to this point. I'd be glad to take it over as a Donate Media Inc. DBA OR we could focus new efforts with BitcoinCharity.org in building nice bitcoin only accepting apps and scripts for charities to implement.
So whether it's just helping you guys promote bitcoin 100 the way it is, that works. If you would like me to take it over and try to revive it, that's cool to or like I said we could dissolve it and work everything into the BitcoinCharity.org scripts & app development. So half the pledge donations go into script development and the other half go into the approved charities who agree to place the scripts or apps on their site.
No decision has to be made anytime soon, just offering some options.
Once I'm officially launched with Donate Media and have the BitcoinCharity.org site up and running I'll have an ANN thread going.
Have a great night everyone, sorry for the rambling, it's late here on the east coast :-)
