What a helluva way to send messages at a micro cost. I still like my idea of the Wisdom Well, but a wishing well would be just as good.

It seems the wishing well has some messages! Please, forgive my potentially crummy decoding.

That's what it translates to. That's the first time I've seen it. Thanks, bud.

Interesting. I always liked the idea of doing something like:
1WELOVEYOUSATOSHI12q (would have to figure out a valid address) or something. Then at least even though you're throwing your money away there is a message to it! Wink

BUT IF you are going to throw your money AWAY it would probably be better to support BTC businesses. It will do more good. It will help people rather than waste it.

Agreed.


Well fuck me in my ass! You are so correct with that assessment. I should have held on to those two thin dimes ($.20 USD) and used them for a purchase from a more proper Bitcoin related enterprise. The next time I see somebody tossing a quarter into a wishing well, I'm going to berate that bitch to no end, teller her that she's lost her fuckin' mind for tossing a perfectly good coin into a worthless well, when she could use that same coin to stimulate the economy by spending that same quarter at the shoppe across the street.

~Bruno~

LOL. I was only get at larger amounts. But ya, for small amounts who cares. I like the idea though of an address that has a message for tossing the BTC away.

But, you're not really tossing bitcoins away when you realize two main aspects to this concept. First, if/when (when/if) the coins are moved, the Genesis Block owner(s) will most likely direct the overage to some worthy cause. Second, if this concept gets legs and the address reaches some tipping point, the media will pick it up, even if it takes a press release, thus, once again, bringing awareness to Bitcoin. Bear in mind, one never knows when or how a fad starts.

You forget that the people (aka clowns) around here think that Bitcoins are going to be worth millions of dollars a piece someday.  Cheesy

P.S. Chucking coins at a high velocity can totally be worth the price if you hit something interesting. Like an Atlas. The kind that has information inside of it of course.

I know it's not because I check every time in my absent mindedness, but I swear every time I see your avatar I think it's Ai Shinozaki.

Ai Shinozaki will do nicely! I'm going to change it to Ai Shinozaki just to keep your head on straight. LOL

If everyone's avatars were Ai Shinozaki, I would never get any trolling done.

Make a wish by tipping The Satosh via the Wisdom Well. At today's exchange rate, a wise .0424242 BTC offering should suffice in having your wish granted. The Genesis Block address is 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa.

Sent 0.0424242 BTC to 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa

I've tipped The Satosh 0.0424242 BTC, then declared my wish:

Om! I wish that whomever has control over the Genesis Block, uses their newly acquired coins wisely, as I'm sure they will. Om!

~Bruno~

PS: Notice the Om! before and after the wish. Nothing like adding a little Karma into the mix.

has anyone ever thought of the possibility that the coins are just lost. its very likely satoshi will never get them.
Quite possible. So, we've effectively increased the value of BTC for everyone through deflation.

You're welcome.  Smiley  Tongue
