I couldn't even get donations to start a legit non profit homeless outreach similar to Sean's Outpost, but to take care of the local homeless in my area of Tampa Bay Florida, I was looking for donations to file with Florida's online registration (SunBiz) you have to REALLY convince people, also Phennesues (sorry for spelling) he's already working on sending a BTC Flag to the summit of Mount Everest!

Gee, I was just about to send 1000 BTC, but I sort of sensed that the OP might be kind of a quitter.
I thought he might have is hand full 'setting the standard' in ASIC mining also and that might not leave him with enough time to build a Bitcoin outpost the moon or whatever.
Sure is a good thing I waited 'cuz I might have lost a lot of money.

There is no way we could be as evil as a fractional reserve banker because you can't inflate the money supply by 9x when giving out a loan like they can.

I am Done!!! I am not going to waste my time trying to help Bitcoin. I will just sit back like everyone els and wait for Bitcoin to rise or fall.
I figured this would be a good idea and would be fun and it would bring us all together .I was wrong. Thread closed MISSION scraped
spent 14 days trying to build momentum for his launch without one donation . Ordered 3 bitcoin worth of supplies "good thing its within the 30 days so i can take it back"
for the people who were excited about this mission. I am sorry . I am optimistic but day after day without any support and everyone telling you that your wasting time. I am sorry but i am done. I will return to being a Selfish Bitcoin holder
How exactly would sending a flag into space help bitcoins? Someone's clearly watched too much alien shows I figured this would be a good idea and would be fun and it would bring us all together .I was wrong. Thread closed MISSION scraped

what is the point of this? seems like a big waste of money/time/effort

Not to be too negative because I like this idea and the OP's enthusiasm. But lets also not exaggerate, sending a flag into space isn't likely to have people lining up to buy bitcoin. It would be a quick 30 second news piece and then the world would move on.
Speaking of space, Virgin Galactic has already received payments in bitcoin to send humans to space. Sending a human in space and that human paid for the trip with bitcoin is a bit more exciting than a flag. Even that Virgin story passed after about a day and the average person out there probably didn't go buy bitcoin because of it.

I'm sure the OP is going to be sending humans into space also. Lot's of them! Why not have a backup? Anyway, after that the OP could well be setting up Bitcoin colonies on other planets or even astroids!
Of course getting a few mining rigs from BFL is a necessary first step. (Good luck with that, BTW.)

I think that most of us just can't figure out how burning millions of dollars to stick a flag in space for 30 seconds (flag - an visual emblem that people have to be able to see) will help bitcoin in any way. It may actually do harm, instead, since instead of people going, "Oooh, that's an interesting bitcoin project happening over there. I need to look into this bitcoin thing," they may just think, "Stupid nerds got lots of money for no work, and are now throwing it away on stupid projects, like sending flags to space, instead of using that money to actually help people."

Donate your Bitcoin before they are worthless ha ha ha

Not speaking of any users directly but This is why bitcoin prices are falling people come here to the forum for help and wanting to work with other people to advance the greatness of bitcoin . What they are met with is sarcasm and criticism instead of people saying “hey man” let’s get this done” . If bitcoin fails it’s because the people failed to do what was necessary for advancement of bitcoin. Seems like holders of bicoin are perfectly ok with just holding their bicoins and praying, crossing their fingers. Just hoping bitcoin makes it through another year. People give Bitcoin value and power. Without people bitcoin is just tiny little .dat file. I am trying to bring more people to bitcoin on a global scale thus increasing bitcoin prices.
I don't think this "cause" will advance bitcoin in the slightest. I apologize if my opinion somehow offends you.
I don't want to post a purely negative response without providing something constructive so...
If, for example, you started an information campaign aimed at helping new Bitcoin users properly secure their coins (teaching them about cold storage, offline wallets, etc.), I would be much more interested in donating.
So when people tune in to watch the launch they would learn all about bitcoin
Thank you for your help

I am just trying to create some global buzz. Get people excited about Bitcoin. Bring new users to Bitcoin. Give people good news about Bitcoin instead of the negative FUD News that has been coming out lately .
Since when can FUD be positive or negative?Good luck anyways.

Rich people burning money (almost literally if one uses a rocket motor.) I mean, who ever heard of such a thing?
For my part I am vastly more impressed with effort which actually help people, and especially those with no strings attached. And yes, I've personally been fairly generous in this respect and expect to be so in the future if Bitcoin continues to be viable.
