so a bitcoin project meant to get some press and recognition around the world has....

.. not asked the press to cover it before or during the event, and is now seeking to only speak to the coin community based forums and press....

hmmm so lets ask some random outsiders that never heard of bitcoin, to tell me if they heard about a balloon being send into space with bitcoins onboard.

.. results are in, and no one has heard about it

Heh, this'll be good press.

It'll be interesting to see what the world will think.

If you guys want real press you should send a person up there.  Maybe a company such as Coinbase would be a sponsor. 

Elon Musk owns SpaceX and Tesla Motors.  You can buy his cars with btc.


My comments are not meant to belittle what was done.  I'm also looking forward to the coverage of this.  It pays to be proactive as far as contacting media outlets and to have something prepared when you do.  Needing to do less work is an incentive for them to run a story.

Calling out scams, one HYIP at a time...
You capitalized Stratosphere, so I thought this was about the casino in Las Vegas  Tongue
