Thanks for the contributions guys, I'm sorting the questions (and locking the thread). The interview results will be printed in Issue #4 (October 2012) of Bitcoin Magazine.


Cheers!

I think that a progress of bitcoin at the news industry.
Okay, you got something wrong in your article. They're asking for questions to ask Max Keiser when they interview him, not asking for new articles.

He's kind of cross posting I suppose, because I am in fact asking for letters to the editor here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/want-your-letter-published-in-issue-4-of-bitcoin-magazine-get-a-free-issue-99814 but I think he posted this in the wrong thread lol

thanks very much.
I removed the artile .
best wish for yours!

Can Bitcoins ideals be perverted to form a secret world government :-)
What is his first bit coin related aktivity on an avarage Max Kaiser business day.
What does he think is the most exiting thing what the most boring thing about the coin?
His suggestions about increasing usage in Africa.
How many sleepless nights has he spend on an exchange?
Other things he thinks that can develop synergies with bitcoin?
Has he lost a wallet?
Do his parents understand bitcoin?
What is the best bit coin related gift to give?
When will we have to overthrow the government? When will we overthrow the early adopter?
Do you floss your teeth before or after you brush them?
Has he tried a brainwallet?

How about his take on fractional reserve banking in bitcoin. There seem to be two schools of thought:
 1) Frb is possible with bitcoin as the base, and people will happy trade IOUs denominated in bitcoin off the block chain at - or very close to - their face value in bitcoin - thus the 21 millon cap becomes almost irrelevant.
2) Sure, FRB is possible, but why would I accept your inferior IOU, when there is no added convenience over real bitcoin (unlike settlements in gold, where physical settlement sucks). In other words: Blockchain - or didn't happen. This leaves the 21 million cap very much intact.

What does Max think about this?

There's a thread titled "There is a way we can trade Bitcoin without getting shut down constantly" (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=49854.0;all).

The idea developed in that thread is some sort of a Bitcoin Security (ETF or bond or whatnot), that has its price pegged to the price of bitcoin and would therefor allow a different type of people to invest in bitcoin.

I'd be interested in what Max thinks about this idea.

People might talk to him about this at the conference (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1046796), so maybe this is not a good question for the interview.


So ask or not?  Huh

ask. the people want to use his contacts to get it set up, so maybe it's a plus if he has thought about the idea beforehand. Also: I really am intersted in his opinion.

I think what Vladimir meant to say was, "We work hard to produce the high quality content that we do, and we feel that the covers are neither negative nor excessive, neither does our Editorial Board or any of our thousands of readers.

I bought the first two, and I think Jointops420 has a point. Anyway, off-topic I guess. Keep up the good work.


If so, please participate in this: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/covers-content-and-imagery-oh-my-99880

It would be nice to get his thoughts on Silver & Gold vs. Bitcoin, and what he thinks of them investment wise.

Can you ask him his opinion about what James Rickards said about bitcoin :

I'd be curious to know how he "adopted" the bitcoin idea.  Is he a technical guy himself?  Did Stacy Herbert convince him about bitcoin?

Yes, Stacy did.

It is not our mission to please everyone.

So you are not interested in what potential customers may think of your product. Most successful business's are interested no matter whether its positive or negative feed back. Anyway you lost one potential sub.

I think what Vladimir meant to say was, "We work hard to produce the high quality content that we do, and we feel that the covers are neither negative nor excessive, neither does our Editorial Board or any of our thousands of readers. While you personally may have a personal issue with the cover, the best we can do is receive your input for future covers. You know what they say though, you can't judge a niche magazine by it's cover."

And I fully echo these sentiments. That said, see this thread please.

Thanks for the reply.
