this is just awesome, is exactly what bitcoin needs, Mike is a celebrity and lot of ppl follow him, just look how many folowers he have on twitter and all of them already saw that news, i mean, what bitcoin need is more advertising from ppl like him

ofc be sure if things goes in this way, price will raise Wink

well done Mike!

What is more significant price wise? Bill Gates buying more BTC for his foundation (a guy from the technology area investing) or Mike Tyson opening his own ATM (a more mainstream celeb investing)?

Bill Gates of course, he moves millions, but don't understimate the power of Mike Tyson. He is not only one of the best ever in the sport of boxing, he is part of American culture and a legend, thanks to this now millions of people will be aware that at least Bitcoin exists, so this is indeed awesome news, a great publicity stunt for Bitcoin.

I was very surprised to see Tyson into Bitcoins. He doesn't come across as someone interested something so intangible as bitcoin?

FWIW the website is © Copyright 2015 Bitcoin Direct, LLC ... So it's marketing for using a big celebrities name. But it's always encouraging to see high-profile be aware and share Bitcoin.

That's why. He is a celebrity spokesperson for Bitcoin Direct! Mike Tyson is a celebirty, no doubt. Is he really the right person as a spokesperson? I don't think he can pull people into bitcoin. His words doesn't carry enough weight.

Another one in a growing list of celebs who are pro bitcoin.
Give this a read - http://www.coindesk.com/10-celebrities-investing-using-talking-bitcoin/

The list isn't that long. We need more and bigger stars. A bitcoin logo on a top female tennis player in a grand slam final would do nicely.

Of course he is just advertising (it would not make sense to talk in third person, in the slogan, would it?), but given his renown this will be great for BTC. I am retweeting this.

Mike Tyson Bitcoin
ATM
Coming August 2015
Mike Tyson’s fastest knock out in the ring was 30 seconds.
The Mike Tyson Bitcoin ATM can turn your cash into bitcoin in under 20 seconds.

That's good one Smiley MT B ATM is faster than his knock outs!

They're already installing ATM's around. http://www.forexminute.com/bitcoin/bitcoin-direct-llc-to-install-bitcoin-atm-in-las-vegas-nevada-60807

I'd definitely say Bill Gates. They both have a large amount of followers, however Bill Gates has more influence over people with more of a tech and investment background. I'd imagine most people that follow Mike Tyson are not techies or investors. Since bitcoin makes sense to more people with a tech or financial background I'd say Bill Gates is a more significant supporter.


Bill gates is here in Omaha/Council Bluffs. Should I ask him?

With that rationale Mike Tyson is widening bitcoin awareness, people in tech industry already now about bitcoin, specially investors.

is it possible that bicoin price will rise significantly because of this or it wont have any influence, either way its nice to see that he decided to invest into it

If Mike starts actively promoting his Bitcoin ATMs as he makes his usual rounds on the talkshow circuit, yes, the price of Bitcoin will be positively affected.

Bitcoin Direct LLC is a Nevada LLC. Just filed in April 2015 and owned by Henry Sargent who also owns Monster Draft LLC that was filed around the same time as Bitcoin Direct; not sure if the two are connected or not. I can't find anything else about him other than some involvement with Technest and AccelPath... I'm guessing it's just someone starting up a bitcoin ATM operation and offered Mike some cash for a promo.

That's pretty cool news, hope he is successful with this, and expands. He might be able to bring more mainstream people into it.
