Topic: Donate $100 the day bitcoin hits $100k. - page 5. (Read 1368 times)

I request you to re-read the post.

The purpose of my threat is to spread the celebration of Bitcoin reaching the milestone of $100K among Bitcoin users as well as the general poor people. I would discourage you from taking a selfie with someone after helping them and publicizing it in the media. Donate for the satisfaction of the creator and receiver. But yes you have full freedom, to donate your money or not, to whom, how. It is your personal matter. But I invite you, if you can, share happiness among people. 

Thank you for this wonderful humanitarian initiative, a great human idea through which we can provide some assistance to those in need who do not have money to buy bitcoin or even their basic needs.

Through this idea, we can share them in profits somewhat as if they bought some bitcoin and rejoiced with a height to 100 K, it will be a great feeling for everyone for those who received donations as well as those who made it. It will also be useful to give a positive image of bitcoin.

I suggest you re-read the post and read it carefully. You may have misunderstood the post.

Charity  and donating on the occasion of something are two different things. When you give someone money or something (which he needs but can't afford) seeing his helplessness, there is no specific time for this donation. When a person is in need and you have both the ability and the will, you can donate whenever you want.

When you decide to donate on an occasion, you must wait for your occasion to fulfill. If you don't have full capacity you can prepare for it well in advance. Celebratory donation after bitcoin hits $100k requires you to wait until bitcoin hits $100k. If you have the ability you can donate daily if you want, it will be very beneficial for the nation and the poor.

for me, I don't think we need to wait till we've attained a certain milestone before we help those that are in need. Helping others should be a lifestyle we should practice on a regular bases regardless of the times and seasons or the level of achievement we've been able to attain over a given period of Time.

The idea isn't bad and surely, for all of us here that are Bitcoin enthusiast, every big breakout and upward movement in Bitcoin price gives us excitement but you know that the excitement isn't complete unless you have a good amount of Bitcoin right? Let's be realistic enough to know it's a thing of joy to see Bitcoin going above $100k but if you don't have enough Bitcoin  in your wallet, it doesn't make any difference if you give out specially to those in needs or not. If Bitcoin gets to $100k, what's then your plan? Would you sell off your Bitcoin at the time or continue holding? $100k is kind of a special number but let's not overemphasize it as though Bitcoin would have to remain at that spot or as though $100k is the peak of Bitcoin price movement.

The idea you gave to celebrate BTC after hits $100k is appreciated. I agree with you about helping the poor. I hope this year we can celebrate and distribute its charity to poor and needy families.

I might do the same as well but to my close family, relatives and friends first but typically when it comes to this kind of activity, I don't really broadcast them at all. It's been a long time since I started and was able to do this kind of thing and I share my blessings to the less fortunate and I can't share the entire details about it. IMO, we can do our own share whether it will be $100 when the $100k mark for Bitcoin hits or even it don't hit that, as long as you want to share or give to the less fortunate, you can do that anytime you wish. As long as it is within your grateful heart and you're happy to share, it's actually about your personality and being a charitable person shows what kind of heart you have. Little kindness we do, big impact to the lives that will be involved.

There has been quite a lot of people who has done this, not for 100k but I mean like a donation drive, with proof as well. There was a sandwich guy, I do not remember if I saw him here or reddit, not entirely sure. But people kept giving him money, and he would go out once a week, buy stuff for sandwiches and all, make them, package them, and then distribute them to the homeless people around him. That resulted with a great return for sure, and I think it was a nice one.

I think we can all do that, it is not that we won't, I mean everyone on this topic could be given money to distribute to the poor, the point is that how can we trust that person. If I come out and say "give me money, I promise I will give it to the poor", how would you know I am not going to pocket it? That's the issue with these drives.

You are welcome mate, glad you got the message now. Just like every other bitcoiner i can't wait to see bitcoin reach a 100k price mark. I have thought and concluded on using a 5% of  my total bitcoin hodling when the price hits 100k to organize a little indoor party strictly for kids alone that are within my neighbourhood. It might not be much but that's my little way of expressing my joy. I heard putting smiles on kids faces do bring some luck too.

ohh , yeah mate that did not cross my mind ,this is festive and something that we need
to celebrate and yes  we should do something
to give for this matter , thanks for reminding me mate.

another correct , but yes poor must be our priority whenever we have chance
in helping so yes lets do what is necessary .

This is a very good idea but I wouldn't like to be sentimental about Bitcoin investment, so I would like to treat it the way I treat other investments. Needless to say, I have other cryptocurrency investments that are even doing better than Bitcoin, should I do the same for them as well? Well, as it is in my nature, I do not wait for a specific time like this to start preaching or showing sentiment, giving is what I do daily, and I even donate to those who do not know me and who will never know me, so I think I will keep it that way.

Those who will be freaked by this are such people who cannot remember when last they gave people something, but since I do it almost every time I step out since it gives me joy and fulfilment, I think I will excuse myself from this but rather continue doing my general giving. And I am using this opportunity to advise people not to wait for a special day, festival, tradition etc. to give, giving should be an everyday thing. It should be done whenever you see people in need and I do not think that a month can pass that anyone will not see anybody in need. So why now wait for a specific time, purpose, or season to help?

The concept is very good, if anyone wants to follow this method, please do so, and donations can be given to people we know they need, so funds don't need to be saved or collected by one person, just person who want to do it save it themselves.

I really agree with this because many people need help every day, and also give not when we have too much but also at any time as long as there is a will, and the method that Op mentioned might increase enthusiasm to be able to share with larger amounts, and it should be done according to the will and done truly, because we want to help.

Read the OP again. OP has made a good suggestion. He is not asking for a donation on the forum, he’s only suggesting that we keep aside $100 for charity the day Bitcoin hits $100k. No one is sending anybody money here, it’s not a bitcointalk donation.

There are many disadvantaged people in our society, to whom it is our duty to provide benefits. We can multiply the happiness of Bitcoin 100K by helping them. We will invest as much as possible in Bitcoin now, then when Bitcoin crosses 100K you will have some profit from here, you will donate $100 from that profit, or whatever amount of money according to your profit to the underprivileged people. Seeing the happiness of those underprivileged people at that moment, your happiness will also increase manifold. Then you will feel that no matter, you have helped a helpless person, you will feel very good about yourself. So we will donate any amount of money or $100 on the day of Bitcoin 100K.

Hey mate seem you are misunderstanding the concept from the Op.  Bitcoin reaching a 100k for the first is going to be a historical hallmark of an event to  we bitcoiners and what the Op is just saying is that we can use that day specially to extend a hand of financial help to the needy or anybody at all. On my own, I'll say it could be any form of assistance or support you can offer on that day to brighten the countenance of anyone around is fine.

We have always have the poor with us in the society and whether we like it or not we will always have those that are poor (less privileged) so even before and after bitcoin reaches a 100k price we can still show them some care and concern.  But on that day of a 100k it can be likened to every other special occasions people celebrate with others for something good that happened in their life.

Bitcoin price has increased about 8.5 percent in the last 24 hours. Currently, the value of each Bitcoin has risen to about $71,000. We can see the Bitcoin price heading towards $100000 very soon. We are likely to see a small correction here which is a natural trend of the market. All crypto investors in the world now have the same desire. Many will want to mark the day when this price, which has been expected for the past 4 years, becomes a reality. Many investors will greet the day amid cheers and excitement. And if that day is reserved for the poor and needy then that idea is not bad. Along with investors, common people will also celebrate the day.

I think, this current price is heading to $100,000  soon, because the price has hit $70,000 few hours ago which is a sign that holders expectations will come to reality before the end of this year and it will help many holders to make a huge amount of income. It will be a heavy celebration to bitcoiners if the price of Bitcoin can hit $100,000, because they have seen $60,000, $70,000 but they have never experience $80,000 , 90,000 and $100,000 which they wish to experience to make the celebration in a bigger way. Giving the poor money or food, it will not help them OP, why can't you use the funds to create some companies in that community and start employing only the poor to eliminate poverty from their life, which is the best way to help those who cannot help themselves financially than giving them money you can use to invest to get more incomes.

Really difficult to pull it off given how there's a lot of people that have done this before in the forum and there were times that it was a hit but the times that it missed, people on the forum got a bit more scared and skeptic of charities that will be created from this, it's a conundrum and it's in conflict with what I believe when it comes to charity here in the forum but I'm in agreement with you about this one, much better if it's organized and I really don't like the concept of fake kindness anyway where you're forced to give to people just because you care that it celebrates a certain bitcoin price milestones.

Whom do we give the money and who is to be in change of the money and again what would the money be used for?
Naturally this donation doesn't make sense to me why because is very simple thing, we can all handle it by exercising love where we could share a gift such as Pen, book, T-shirt or whatever maybe could be foods around our neighborhood. At least anyone here on this forum can afford a plate of meal to his or her neighbor after which they can take a selfie with those people or person, possibly there could be a note on it like "Happy to see Bitcoin on $100k, A meal to a neighbor".

Anyone who wishes to spend millions can go on their own to spend it or possibly donate to some local school around them with their personal funds since I believe there are poor persons in every nation around them or their street and state. But making a donation here doesn't go well with me since we can easily cook food and share with our neighbors.

Okay what about those who are not earning any money here how would they be able to donate $100 as you said, but at least almost everyone here can afford a plate of meal to their neighbor and take selfie to upload it here using talkimg.com designed by our forum brother @joker_josue or they can upload it on any social media then copy link and post in this thread for people view them and see how the love are being demonstrated.
Please note that similar things has been discussed over the other forum, so this idea came from there and I think is a good thing to also emulate as well, although it wasn't on bitcoin price entirely but on their native currency.

When it comes to donating into someone or helping someone then if you do have plans on doing such act then you wont really be waiting up for Bitcoin to hit $100k first before you would really be doing but its true
that not all would really be having the finances or extra money on which they could really be able to make out such thing on which means that saving up a buck on day to day or a portion of your salary every month would really be a good step or gesture for someone to do so. Donating to someone isnt really that something compulsory or something that mandatory on which it would really be just that depending on you on how you do make yourself having such action basing up on the situation that you are liking to do such act.

If you could be able to afford on donating something without having that kind of saving up then its good, but if you are someone who is really just that earning sufficient on day to day living
and wants to make some donation then you could really be abel to go such route and would be doing it.

The liability would be too much to ask someone on forum to do, so it'd have to be someone wealthy enough OR someone who could get the backing of assurance/insurance (in case, you never know).

There have been some crypto funds in the past with clout. Pineapple Fund springs to mind. Their choice of organisation to donate to sat right with me too.

But if anyone wants to really come together and do something with a limited amount of liability and multisig...
