I can see how its hard to explain bitcoin to the mainstream media folks. When telling them about mining and mathematical equation..... their faces looked ..." yeah right,,,, scammers" Title: Re: Bitcoin on CNBC right now, United States East Coast Post by: Herodes on April 02, 2013, 07:59:59 PM Heres the video: http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?play=1&video=3000157766 I believe we also have a new development: Who came up with the theory that Satoshi is Grigori Perelman (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grigori_Perelman) ? Thanks a thousand for sharing. Jeff Berwick, love that dude! Loved it when he stared confidently right into the camera and said: That's the great thing about the free market, there will be all sorts of free market inovations. The monetary system today is much more dangerous than anything bitcoin has. +1000 Title: Re: Bitcoin on CNBC right now, United States East Coast Post by: gramma on April 02, 2013, 08:05:23 PM The Expensify interview was a set-up job, and 2 vs 1 to boot. I think both guys are good spokespeople for how bitcoin is becoming a presence in ordinary, non-geeky people's lives.
Way back in the Dark Ages, I had a marketing professor who said that it generally takes 7 impressions of a new brand before the light bulb of recognition begins to go off. In general, more people spend a lot more time watching CNBC than they do reading Reddit or Mashable. Or bitcointalk. :) |
