Dudes. please help get as many video submissions from all over the world as we can.

We have Brazil and China now but still need at least 20 more nations and languages. Just record the vid, itnroduce yourselves, in your language, say a few things you want the world to know about you and maybe read out a few lines from the Satoshi white paper.


Questions

  • ]What do you do ? (occupation) ex. student, doctor, coder etc..[/li
    • What is your name? (first name or nick name only)
    • What would you buy with your bitcoin?


    Call to Action

    Email us at [email protected]
    ollow the instructions below to shoot a video and send it to us at [email protected]. Use sendspace to upload.

    • Shoot the video outside with a famous landmark behind you that people from your city or town will recognize. A nice mural, graffiti or art also works. Nature also works, something green or water.
    • Best time for a video is early morning or late afternoon.
    • Just do a video selfie with your phone. Keep it as close to you so the sound comes out clearer.

    Answer the questions above and pick out a few of the below quotes and say them on video. Big smiles and high energy are best. Let’s show the world how much we love Bitcoin. You can say anything you want, the below are just guides.

    Reading out the Bitcoin Constitution
    Another awesome thing you can do is to read out the Original whitepaper written by Satoshi Nakamoto. We will be picking a few words from each reading to go into the video.

    Commerce on the Internet has come to rely almost exclusively on financial institutions serving as trusted third parties to process electronic payments. While the system works well enough for most transactions, it still suffers from the inherent weaknesses of the trust based model.

    What is needed is an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust, allowing any two willing parties to transact directly with each other without the need for a trusted third party. Transactions that are computationally impractical to reverse would protect sellers from fraud, and routine escrow mechanisms could easily be implemented to protect buyers. We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer distributed timestamp server to generate computational proof of the chronological order of transactions. The system is secure as long as honest nodes collectively control more CPU power than any cooperating group of attacker nodes.

    We have proposed a system for electronic transactions without relying on trust. We started with the usual framework of coins made from digital signatures, which provides strong control of ownership, but is incomplete without a way to prevent double-spending. To solve this, we proposed a peer-to-peer network using proof-of-work to record a public history of transactions that quickly becomes computationally impractical for an attacker to change if honest nodes control a majority of CPU power. The network is robust in its unstructured simplicity.
    Once your video is done, just upload it here or here and send link to [email protected]

It's good to see that we are moving in the right direction. And we obviously need to reach to more people and brush aside the bad image

Why? Maybe people make some sort of secure offline wallet or make bitcoin storage safer for everyone.

Not really.

A new blockchain is necessary that can contain data.

I have the plan.  Hopefully Overstock.com will be in contact.

Yeah It need a facelift and become a popular model for people who are unaware of it.

How will propel recognize it if Bitcoin will do a face lift?
Half of those 1 million people that know it exist wil then not recognize it and we will have half less users.

but many people think the Bitcoin is a Pond's scam,so we should tell what  the Bitcoin really is .

5 years has passed, people who believe the Bitcoin is a Pond's scam will  be proved that they're wrong.

People will believe in it when it get support from any govt. institution. Without that its future is still uncertain.

Sounds like a good idea. Can't see the video right now as I'm on a dead slow connection but I like the concept described and will likely participate.

One suggestion to the person who wrote advice on how to shoot the video: Shooting around noon when the sun is overhead is a bullet proof recipe to make yourself appear as ugly as it gets. Actually, early morning or late afternoon light is the best for shooting anything, but especially people's faces.
