Topic: Bitcointalk Youtube channel - what would you like to see? - page 28. (Read 13689 times)

I think the viewer attention regarding masks can work both ways; there's clearly Youtubers that have built their brand, and audience around being anonymous, and that in itself creates a element of intrigue. However, I do get what you guys are saying; interviews are usually a little more personable, but at the end of the day, I listen to podcasts, and I don't usually see the guests at all, yet I still listen, and am intrigued about it. Podcasts are extremely popular now too.

For example, while Joe Rogan does have a visual element to his podcasts, I don't actually watch them, I've normally got them on when driving or traveling about, and I imagine its the same for most people. I don't think a visual aspect is absolutely necessary. It probably does help, but I'd probably watch or listen to someone that's got a history in Bitcoin, and his knowledgeable despite them having a mask on.

Also if you have a badass mask, I'm going to be intrigued.

I also respect the privacy of each member and in fact it is personal choice whether they want to publicize their image and thought or not but i just mentioned some esteemed members who have potential knowledge about the forum and can share their knowledge with others also.No doubt gmaxwell,achow101 and cyrus and other staff members are also one suitable to that list.Taking interview session from new and other members would not be fun but yes privacy comes at first phase and was not aware that they have rejected the same idea.But still we can figure out some more ways for channel progress.

Yes, we have passed this phase a long time ago ... but not everyone lives in democratic countries, besides, you can hide your identity not only from the government, among the people mentioned there are definitely those who would prefer to hide own involvement in the bitcoin industry, (friends and acquaintances primarily refer to those from whom they would like to hide their participation). Nevertheless, the interview machine will start moving if someone from the iconic persons sets an example ... I suppose the figure of gmaxwell or Cyrus would be suitable for the first issues, (or a masked Cøbra with a distorted voice).

Exactly I was picturing in my mind how would these interviews might look like

Welcome to our Youtube Channel where Bitcoin Talks... today we have

or


Well to me and this is only my point of view you can happily differ... we have passed that phases when we were suppose to be hiding under mask ,Bitcoin have came out of that phase long back.

Also I guess if the interview idea is adopted we should be interviewing only those who are ready to come out now... of course no one needs to show their bitcoin wallets, a nice sweet talk and discussion about bitcoin would be enough.

Firstly in this list, I see the names of those who reject the idea of participating in the video interview, and secondly, even if one of them agrees, the viewers will not be interested in a person addressing the audience in a mask, (the thing is that most of these guys value their privacy much higher than their potential "popularity").

Awesome and looking forward to see and watch the Teaser and also the Channels artwork and the first Video !
Sended you a PM with a link to the Music and hope you like it and if not its also ok as we all have diffrent styles for Music.
But if you have any Idea and maybe you want something that i can do let me know , would be loving it to produce something .

wow just one capital letter changed and the whole context becomes something else.. amazing   "NotAtEther" vs "NotATether"...

Made correction on my post for your name and thanks for starting interview round

@Cyrus how's the filming going along? I know that it takes long for a one-man video crew to publish a video on Youtube.


Here's a first interview answer: I spell it "NotATether" 

We have so many members who are working for the help of others here and sharing information and building up a strong network and making good contributions to the forum from a long time.Taking interviews from them on the channel and sharing their experience with all of us would indeed be a great privilege for other members and viewers.The interviews could be streamed in episodes format like we should have some technical people sharing how bitcoin works in any case and discussing every probability with them and have idea from them about the forum exploration.The main members of the forum from which we can learn a lot and take some personal interviews with them are as follows according to my opinion.


This is only first set of members with whom you can kickstart this interview sessions and later on increase the list size as there are many who needs to be on this list in next phases.

The first round of interview can be conducted with these members who can share great information with all of us if you are talking about taking interviews as they have been on the forum from a long time and when people listen to someone who can answers all the questions with smartness and ability then it leaves a different and detailed impression on the audience.I have also some suggestions for the youtube channel which i would like to share with the community and was hoping that Bitcoin talk come up with any such idea and publish some real bitcoin content as YouTube is filled with paid shitcoins and zero experienced crypto youtubers at this time diverting them to invest in rich schemes.But our channel will provide users with all the basic details and forum information in real life.I will also share my feelings after i sort out some really good ones in my mind.

The discussion on this topic - We need a new global moderator. - gave me one idea for another content that we could have on the channel : Interviews with Staff members. This, of course, would have to be made in the most private way possible, but I think that a selection of videos where each member (those willing of course) could share how his/her life is within the forum, what it means for them, how time do they dedicate to it ... I think that this could be a really interesting topic - we could even make this as a limited series where each episode would be for 1 specific staff member. This way we could look back in the future and get to know who were these persons behind the usernames.
From my point of view this could absolutely be complemented with members interviews - I just think that it could have it's own "limited series".

They aren't doing that as far as I know. I remember reading about some youtubers having their videos deleted but I don't know the whole story. There are also crypto-related channels with hundreds of thousands of followers who have been broadcasting via YouTube without any problems for years.

A copyright claim could be the reason why a video or a whole channel suddenly disappears. Insert a video or song without the author's consent and that could be the end of your stay on YouTube.

I don't think anyone recommended Steemit or Hive as possible platforms to advertise. YouTube and dTube works with these platforms and their userbase is interested in crypto. Could be interesting.

Youtube can't censor out words in the audio, only the subtitles.

Besides, assuming it wasn't on Youtube TV/Premium, it won't stay up for long anyway before the hollywood-based bot reporters report it to Youtube for copyright voilation.

It'll be great, but don't you think it makes more sense to just let whoever that'll be responsible ^{[I'm guessing it's someone from your team]} for designing the video thumbnails, also handle the part for designing the logo and the banner?
^{- IMO, it's a bit weird to mix your work with someone else's style, even if you try your best to replicate and integrate their pattern into yours [results will always come out a bit differently].}

That might make it possible in the future then. Although, contacting him now would likely look like we were trying to leach from his platform. Something that we want to avoid doing, realistically we would probably need to be offering more to him, otherwise he'll likely be skeptical.

Absolute classic, you have good taste. Besides that though, surely Silence Of The Lambs is copyrighted, are you sure that it was Youtube that censored it, and not the video uploader? I find it weird that Youtube would review that video, censor out the bad words, but leave the video up considering it probably shouldn't be there in the first place. Unless you mean renting the movie off Youtube, don't they do something along those lines now?

Mr Beast is actually a Bitcoin user. He has tweeted about it and gave away thousands of dollars in Bitcoin over Twitter. You never know, he may be willing to give a shout out or something if you got in contact with his team. He’s pretty good about not letting other people hijack his platform for clout, but maybe he’d be willing to do something for the chase if he really is a Bitcoiner… Can’t hurt to drop a few emails.

Also aka Alphabet if you weren't aware. 

And yes, they did ban a bunch of crypto-related videos a while back but then reversed the bans if I'm not mistaken, and now there are bitcoin and altcoin videos all over the place on Youtube.  I don't think a channel about bitcointalk will run up against the same problems.  Hopefully.

They're definitely big into censorship of words (not necessarily content, strangely enough).  I started watching Silence of the Lambs on Youtube the other day and was surprised to see that they'd censored out some profanity--in a movie with as dark a theme as SotL, too!  And apparently mentioning COVID-19 or other key words will get your video demonetized.  However, this is another issue I don't think the bitcointalk channel will have much of a problem with, since it's not going to be a political one or one in which a lot of curse words are used.

Finding another platform would be ideal, but let's face it, Youtube is the place to be if you want to get your videos seen.

I think it's a really good initiative! I've touched the subject on my first reply to the thread - see section Fun ideas that could be good(or not] - but this has been a recurrent suggestion, in one way or another:
I think that already a (shall we say) "modest" userbase can really benefit us regarding the amount of ideas that could come from it - and since this is for sure a channel that will be focused on the community as well, what better way to "celebrate" this "union" by showing a banner and logo made by one of our member or members? I'm sure that there's demand from one side (our as members) and we've seen in the past that we can came up with pretty interesting designs.
I fully agree on that point of view - and we should be cautions with any kind of centralized platform but I also think that the current support that crypto (and especially BTC has) has far more reach and a support line that for sure would demand justification for the ban of crypto related causes and this is something that Google for sure will think twice before even stepping the foot on the measure itself (at least that's my point of view).
Yeah, it was more in jest than anything. We are relatively small timers I guess, and I don't watch enough of MrBeast's content to know if he's even interested in Bitcoin? I only know of him, and the type of content he does. I believe he puts in almost all of his sponsorship earnings back into the channel, and that's why he's able to give away thousands, and sometimes millions of dollars per video.
Mr.Beast business model is quite interesting in fact - if you've got 10 minutes to spare you can learn more about it here[1]. Basically it's a "vicious" loop - he gets tons of brands interesting in his videos who, in turn, give him a lot of money to do something in his videos and he basically chooses to invest most of that money into the video itself making him : A - Attract a great amount of leads to due to how huge the amount of money he gives away in the video (which he always makes a focus to) and this kind of exposure makes even more brands wanting a "dip" of the recipe. Rise & Repeat ...

Going back a bit on the art contest idea - I think that if we want to have a launch / first teaser around September, we could use this month of August to run the contest - we can even make it in more than one phase, where in each phase a set of contestants advance to the next one and others are "left behind". This, of course, would be more applicable if the amount of submissions / participants were fairly large (which I'm sure will be). And we must remember that the summer is a period where in some parts of Europe there are people in holidays, and we could get a slight less number of participants due to this (which I don't think it's a considerable amount to postpone this event)

Good idea for organizing a contest, we have several active experienced designers in forum who are ready to jump in and start working on this right away.

Google aka Youtube and other big tech are synonym for censorship and not allowing free speech, they even banned some crypto youtubers (not that I am supporting them in any way),
they had Bitcoin advertisement ban until recently and now they allow adds only with special terms, yet we can see crypto scam giveaway videos all the time.
It would be a good idea to post Bitcointalk videos on multiple platforms and some of them should be decentralized, not sure if Odysee is best or something better exists that I am not aware off.

Yeah, it was more in jest than anything. We are relatively small timers I guess, and I don't watch enough of MrBeast's content to know if he's even interested in Bitcoin?

I'm all too familiar with this process of thought. Whenever I'm tackling a somewhat complex problem, this is the exact thought process I go through. This is usually what prevents so many great ideas from actually becoming a reality. So, I'd definitely agree with the last thought process, someone has to do it.

Plus, it's not expected of you to make the most perfect product the first time trying. Usually Youtube channels or any project in general evolves over time. I mean look at Bitcoin in it's creation, it was obviously good, but there was many rough patches which were solved over time, with the community input. The process will roughly be the same, except the Youtube channel isn't open source, but the feedback will be the same.
