Title: If you want to make a charitable donation and have some fun in the process: Post by: tkoham on March 05, 2016, 03:04:43 PM I stumbled upon this today: Bitcoin Plays Pokemon (http://bitcoinist.net/bitcoin-plays-pokemon-lets-you-play-by-donating-btc-to-charity/). It's a charity stream that lets you play pokemon in the same way Twitch Plays Pokemon does, only you make moves by donating BTC to charity. Pretty cool. Twitch stream here (https://www.twitch.tv/bitcoinplays)

Hope those donation goes to right and needy hands.

If anyone have the answer please inform me, I am interested to know about the reason of their collecting charity. Title: Re: If you want to make a charitable donation and have some fun in the process: Post by: Yakamoto on March 05, 2016, 05:14:09 PM This is actually a pretty cool idea.
I'm not sure that we would ever be able to finish it, however, as I'm sure that someone is going to continuously donate a "press start" command. Whatever though, it's for a good cause. Title: Re: If you want to make a charitable donation and have some fun in the process: Post by: SFR10 on March 05, 2016, 07:29:57 PM The idea is good and nice but it didn't mentioned how much exactly each donation is or rather how much each move costs in this case. It would have also been nice if they would have said some information in regards to which charities were chosen to receive donations, so we could double check everything on the other side as well. Hope they don't turn out to steal in the end.

Hope they don't turn out to steal in the end. you can spend any amount, though I think the minimum is .0005 to prevent spam. you can always ask the creator about the charities on twitter, its right there on the stream splash page.

Anything linked to charity, must be audited and verified before anyone will participate... If you do not even know what charities are benefiting from this, what would encourage you to participate? A good idea, but poorly executed in my opinion. The naked lady sounds like a better idea now. ::) Title: Re: If you want to make a charitable donation and have some fun in the process: Post by: buybtc on March 06, 2016, 06:09:26 AM The old legacy games still have a cult following, and you might get a few hits from the followers.... but I would want to see the charities listed on the stream and not follow on Twitter to see updates.

I have never seen something like this before, but I really like it.
Good luck on your fundraising man. |
