Do you know that humanity has satellites in space? Smiley
Yes but internet comes from Wi-Fi that its on the air, that sucker companies makes you pay for something that is in the air! I'm sure that he went with one of those wifi antennas with free internet. That is.

Remember when people use to go to new places (moon, Antarctica, wherever) and plant national flags? I see waving a global currency symbol around as a slightly more optimistic sign for mankind. One world guys.

The problem with space is that a heavy delay occurs (depending on where, but from Mars for example there is a 6-45 minute delay).

Due to the exchange rate increase, Faysal has more in his coffer than he expected: https://blockchain.info/address/1K9XBn8Sur9tNAm7vUTeZr9JH8wC5Kdu3G

Not quite, apparently:

Faysal Hanneche who was on a mission to the South Pole has made a bitcoin transaction from the Novolazarevskaya Station on Antarctica. This must be the only continent from which a bitcoin transaction had not yet been made  Grin Grin

This is the transaction which was sent to me:
https://blockchain.info/tx/f87eaa6f7870ae3b7f677cb0929c69d1b7b2bcdf0a5e33a033aef8b05f6f68ac

It was sent to me and I now have to find a way to get him a pizza in Cape Town, South Africa where he is at the moment.

More about Faysal's mission which was unfortunately unsuccessful due to a knee injury:

Faysal also took these pictures of a Bitcoin flag that was designed:




Boy, am I confused. At first I didn't think he made it, then I saw the planted flag, then I stood corrected. Either way, it's the first Bitcoin flag to grace the mighty continent of Antarctica.

Too bad. He didn't got any donations after he got to the South Pole. His QR code isn't recognizable in the image either.

I think we are done with that kind of advertisement already.
I might be wrong but i can't think of something more flaky than a guy waving a bitcoin flag in the south pole  Roll Eyes
It's the kind of "happenings" that a multinational also does for marketing (if you replace 'Bitcoin' with 'Google' or 'Red Bull' it'd still make sense). Paypal also did quite a lot of strange marketing actions. And this is not faux-pas like killing an elephant in Africa like the Godaddy guys Tongue

As always it appeals to certain groups and doesn't appeal to others. But it always brings attention.
