Topic: I just wish Satoshi Nakamoto reads this! (Read 1148 times)
If the usage and adoption of bitcoin were to grow too fast (as would likely happen as a result of the marketing campaign that you describe) then bitcoin would likely fail. If enough people use bitcoin then there will be a greater incentive to attempt to attack the network. The network can generally survive and adapt to such attacks, but if the incentive is great enough then it will not be able to do so which would lead to it's failure.
Hello Satoshi!
First of all, thank you for inventing what many people consider to be the first fairly successful attempt of making real money - a tool which could help humanity escaping the only system that reigns today, that is known as Modern Slavery. Bitcoin is already converting the sick economy into something better, but I'm affraid the process is slow because such thing can never get the full support from governments and financial institutions, and sad fact is that mass is commonly ignorant and can't see what's best for them.
I'm telling all of this to you because your (and our) job is not done yet, we still can't say something like: "Bitcoin became the number 1 currency for world-wide personal transfers and online payments".
So they say you're holding have 1 mil of Bitcoins. That's around 500 mil $, which is sum pretty much hard to spend, especially for modest man like you're most probably are. That money is yours and you deserved every penny, but what would you do with it?
Now imagine just a 10th of that sum to be spent on marketing effort which would attempt bringing masses to Bitcoin. We already have the infrastructure we need, we even have Bitcoin ATMs worldwide. That kind of marketing investment could bring a critical mass of people adopting Bitcoin, and BOOM, there's no turning back! Bitcoin HAS become the number 1 currency in the world and I just can't imagine how proud would I be if I'm the one most responsible for such enormous civilization advancement.
First technical phase is almost over. Average Joe needs marketing effort to understand what's best for him. Please, Satoshi, consider this marketing option.
On the technical side, I would suggest that if you're really going to spend many Bitcoins on such campaign, you should spend Bitcoins directly and anonymously, not converting them into fiat, offering premium rates to marketing companies for their services. That way you can even stay anonymous and do the greatest thing in the world that can be done today.
Hope these were not the empty words for you and public, Thank you again!
