Billy Cosby.
No, really, Bill Cosby. If anybody is to understand the delicate intricacies of Bitcoin, it would be the jell-o dealer himself.
Also, I find it comforting to hear the voice of passive non-hostile black men. Kinda like Morgan Freeman.
Or the Allstate Insurance guy.

I demand the ability to purchase jell-o with bitcoin. Make it happen, Cosby.

It would be very interesting to read more about this transaction and Hal Finney in Bitcoin Magazine.This guy deserves it.
Any chances of success?

A Wordpress rep, and consider giving them cover coverage.

We tried. They said that they're not ready to give an interview yet. Not that we won't ask again later on, of course Smiley

And they have cover coverage on #5 anyway.

Kim Dotcom

Yes. Haha, I'd love to talk to (or even hang out with) that guy Tongue

Apparently he's very hospitable if you twitter him and tell him you live close by. I'm sure there are stories of him inviting random's over for drinks and a swim in his pool.

Pres of Mises Institute, Doug French (see this article on Bitcoin):
http://lfb.org/today/currencies-of-the-future/

Also it would be interesting to interview those involved with previous failed experiments in alternative currencies, to see the pitfalls and dangers that could affect Bitcoin in the future.
Eg:

Douglas Jackson (e-gold) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-gold
Eric M. Jackson (author of "The Paypal Wars") http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_PayPal_Wars
Bernard v. Nothaus (Liberty Dollar) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Dollar

Too bad he's no longer with us: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Orlin_Grabbe#Digital_Monetary_Trust

But I'm willing to bet that Sonny Vleisides has personally met JOG: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Orlin_Grabbe#Laissez_Faire_City_Times

Roberto Gutierrez from AurumExchange. Often overlooked in the Bitcoin arena, he has been in the e-currency industry forever and has a lot of knowledge about the industry. Plus, I think he showed commitment to the Bitcoin community (and balls lol) by setting the Bitcoinica situation straight. Not a single penny would have been recovered without his post.

I cannot stress how much I agree with this.

Roberto and I, regardless being straight up competitors, have been doing business together since BitInstant entered the Bitcoin space 2 years ago.

Knowing almost everyone in the Bitcoin community, I would say Roberto is in my top 10 people I trust. He is directly responsible for keeping BitInstant running in times of crisis on more then one occasion.
Even though there was obvious monetary gain for us going down, Roberto did everything in his power to keep us up. I can't get into details, but he has taking large financial risk as well.
When BitInstant first opened, there was a small miscommunication btwn him and myself. He could easily have accused us, ect. but decided to take the high road by giving us benefit of the doubt before coming on these forums.

We probably speak at least twice a week, and our businesses rely on each other. I plan on further integrating BitInstant and AurumXChange together.

Finally, regarding the Bitcoinica fiasco: Roberto, Mark and myself did an internal investigation together as most of you know. The ethical behavior Roberto showed during the process was something not expected.

Roberto is a pillar of the Bitcoin community, and we should all cherish his presence.

I didn't read the whole forum yet, but where's Mike Caldwell's name?  He's the owner of https://www.casascius.com/.  I've heard him interviewed before and think he would love to know more about his involvement with bitcoin (more than just his coins).

EDIT: I just went back out to his website.  I'd be curious how much he's made with his Casascius business so far; how much volume he's getting still. 

I'm sure you could make enough questions for an interview.

As the noted catalyst responsible for the recent Bitcoin Savings & Trust meltdown, I would like the chance to be nominated for an interview, during which time I can further plug the add space I plan to buy in an upcoming issue to 'air my grievances' about a certain TRENDON SHAVERS of McKINNEY, TEXAS, USA.

From what I understand, it's a fake, or 'Doing Business As' name anyway, so standard Libel liabilities would NOT apply.

Please consider me.

Yours Truly,
bitlane
