I think we should get a Bitcoin blimp and have it fly around the world, esp. during sports games.

The super bowl is right around the corner.  Wink

Housewife discovers way to make money online with this crazy old trick the central banks don't want you to know.

Definitely phrase it that way.  It'd be funny because I could also imagine those annoying types ads that say things like that too.  That'd bring a ton of hilarious buzz.

really?

At least 2 years. Oprah would have little effect on the price because by then many people would already own bitcoins and those who buy then would be dealing in millibits.  Cool

great idea guys, if bitcoin isnt ubermainstream/expensive and all of us that bought in over 1000 arent early adopters by 2015-16 we'll make one celeb coin minimum a month to go mainstream! Disclaimer: joke

I doubt Oprah has much use for bitcoins, you can't eat them last I checked.

You're never too old to think young.
By the time Oprah puts Bitcoin on her show, it will be so commonplace and such a hot topic that her exposure of it will have little effect.

Only when Bitcoin is accepted by the lowest common denominator will it be featured on a show like Oprah's.

"Tricky IPO for GeoCities
Craig Bicknell  Email 08.06.98


Boost From Oprah

...GeoCities was born in late 1994 when founder David Bohnett, a former marketing executive at software company Legent, started looking to cash in on Internet fever. He built a Web site with links to other Web sites grouped by topical interest -- sport, hobbies, finance -- and called them neighborhoods.
In January 1995, Bohnett posted live camera shots of a bus stop in Beverly Hills. Oprah Winfrey got wind of it and interviewed him for a show about online snooping. A gush of traffic followed, and GeoCities was off..."

Can you please add an option for "OprahCoin?"


I think she'll try to dominate the digital coin space with OprahCoin.

Didn't Oprah leave whatever show she was on and move to a still-obscure channel she created for herself?

She'll talk about it when they become accessible, liquid and easily kept safe. The Bitcoin community has failed to achieve any of these goals in significant measure, because there is money to be made by exploiting these weaknesses.
