LOL

You think I am a hipster? LOL LOL LOL

Wow. Wait till I start making videos, you'll see me. (and BTW I live in Colorado which is about as far from the coast as possible, and have shit internet. It's comcast, but just regular "internet" I didn't even get any kind of package. I'm basically a struggling artist that belongs in the BC world, not a hipster striving for the 80's. I'm pretty sure any hipster (even one with a beard) would make fun of me by calling me a cave man or hippy, and I am neither)

Are you another government loyalist come here to tell us to pay our taxes and vote?

Based on those facts I would guess you are living in a big coastal city with high speed internet. You are young (35 max) and believed in "Yes We Can!". You have a Facebook account and like to tweet. You could not believe how stupid the last episode of LOST was. They left so many doors open.
If I am somewhat right the best way for you to really help bitcoin to be as big as you want is to target people who have zero idea about colbert report or what is the meaning of LOST. If you talk to someone about bitcoin and they laugh at your joke about the last Big Band theory episode or Seinfield's many variation of his Apple computer at his apartment over the year, he will still be in the same bubble as you.

Why not take a trip to an Indian reservation, going out of your comfort zone and preach bitcoin? Target the rural States, the farmers and others that go to bed early and wake up early.

Every seconds you spend replying on this thread is making you less productive into deploying your ideas to people who don't know anything about bitcoin yet.

Good luck!

If something gets said on all those shows, it WILL be heard about everywhere over time. I know there are remote places with no internet, but if someone has the internet, then THAT is what will bring them to it.

I'm not saying those shows DIRECTLY win the internet, but the variety of viewership on those shows, mixed with their tech friendly-ness (especially the Tosh audience) WILL (no doubt in my mind) even win the internet in Somalia.

What About People in Somalia? Do they need to watch the Colbert Report for bitcoin to win the internet? So for bitcoin to be taken seriously everybody needs to get their favorite experiments pushed 24/7 on a channel called "Comedy Central"?

 I believe you won the whole internetS.

Oh, and BTW.

There are 5 shows that Bitcoin needs to be not just mentioned, but mentioned in a GOOD way on (like buying them is shown in a good light somehow).

The Daily Show

And Bitcoin will win the internet. The WHOLE internet.

I had wondered about people hoarding bitcoins, and thought it isn't all that
good for the bitcoin economy.

Hoarding, scrooging, miserliness, are not good for an economy that is supposedly booming,
as bitcoin has been doing.

I like the concept of people giving or gifting, and it is especially easier if/when you
are getting huge increases as some have been getting from bitcoins.
But if it is booming and you are all being hoarders and misers, then I cannot think of hardly anything that is more
a turnoff than that.(though I know there is other things)

Consider the poor man who comes to bitcoin, who cannot find the money in their real life,
to invest, so they ask for bitcoins/money to get started or help to finance?

I know they get judged.
If people do give anything to them, is it sufficient to enable them to get started at least somewhat?
or is it insufficient? Do people continually tell them that they can do this or that, knowing that
in fact those are dead end pathways? Or that those ways fail to pay enough, and even if they get a good percentage increase, by that time, the bitcoin boom is over, and they miss out, but maybe make a small amount when others got rich.

Or, do you expect them to have the fully justified plans, backed by the spotless financial credit
ratings; before you ever consider 'loaning' them anything at all(god forbid you even think of giving even a satoshi)

I will cut this short.

If bitcoin is booming, then spend accordingly, and share the wealth.

But I believe in what jesus said: 'Give to those who ask of you', so if someone asks something of you,
then give.(jesus tends towards reproaching the one who will not give, which is contrary or opposite to how people are in the world often)..

Rather than judge people who ask, why do you not look at yourself, and ask yourself why you will not give? Are you really as justified as you think?(if you think so, then perhaps you read a different holy bible than me)

Anyways, I like the idea of gifting or giving, and spend like its a boom.

People will be drawn to a boom, but shrink away from misers and scroogers and hoarders.

My two cents.

And the whole internet is the English speaking internet

Are you currently putting more bitcoin into programs to help people better understand Bitcoin financing?

It is. I have found about 5 recently bumped threads that were about anything that is ACTUALLY developmental.

And anyone that posts a thread about any kind of "change" gets beat down unless they have thousands of dollars to put into themselves from day 1.

''Currently it is a community of hoarders, snarky posters and troll champions...''

Nice to meet you.
