Do you really have 5 btc to donate for such a thing?I`m gonna buy some spray. ;D
Do we really wanna make bitcoin mainstream?I don`t think this is possible.
The governments support the banks.Bitcoin will become mainstream only if the governments support it
and this is totally impossible.

You can get some nude model for less than 1BTC and you can paint whatever you want in their ass/body.  ;D

Who gonna promote bitcoin without any incentive? People don't like to invest money from their pocket to put in bitcoin advertisements. Bitcoin/blockchain related company should promote use of bitcoin using some % of their business profit because they are the one who will get benefit if bitcoin goes mainstream.

You can I make a Bitcoin logo in my body with spray paint? Please give us a tutorial  ;D

Not when you're an ordinary man with zero fame.Let a celebrity do that and that would become the next best thing on the internet.Probably because no one is interested in ordinary bums.

Suddenly, we're talking about bum ads  ;Dlol. There you go, the idea to hire a beautiful model which cost less than 5btc.
To make celebrity do such things, I think you need more than 5btc.
The way to make bitcoin mainstream already begun from few past years and we still need years ahead to make it happen.
Maybe not mainstream as fiat money, but everyone in the country should know about bitcoin payment, slowly they will attracted to it.
I prefer to reassure stores/groceries/restaurants/hotel to accept bitcoin transaction, maybe with local exchanges help.

You nudists must stay away from schools otherwise you will have to pay 5 BTC in fines for indecent exposure to minors.  ;D .... We have already

had one of our community being pepper spayed, so a nude guy in a public place with BTC written on his ass, will get some attention. Go to a

massive sport event and streak across the field.  ;D

If I was in shape and I had no shame I would do it for 5 BTC, but chances are you would not even pay.

In any case, the dangers of doing what OP propose are many, and im not talking about getting arrested for public nudity, but you would end up looking like a brainwashed bitcoin cultist if you do such things.

Mentioning bitcoin from time to time can be good but that's about it. Idiots can't be saved no matter what, so let them fall and profit from being a pioneer.

Bitcoin is going mainstream due to the increasing acceptance by merchants around the world. On account of this banks importance haven't got reduced. People have started giving consideration to bitcoin too. Banks will continue to provide their services, bitcoin will just move as an secondary payment source and banks won't gets disappeared.

I'm not a sponsor of banks, but your title sounds very libertarian and revolutionary, is not the right moment to say banks will disappear when the market cap of bitcoin still in his childhood. I agree that promoting bitcoin is useful for all of us but don't think Bitcoin is the mainstream thing right now.

But as long as you are paying tax to government, you are also funding wars.

You are talking like a politician here trying to make people go away from banks and all. I feel it's a bad idea, targeting banks cause the fact is Bitcoins is not accepted by all, maybe in future it will. Coming to your point on how to make Bitcoin more attractive I think give away is one of the best option. Secondly we should market the idea of Bitcoin strength. I feel we should use charts and colors to show where Bitcoin was and it's rise since then. Get financial advisors, to ask client to invest in Bitcoin this is often ignored by people here. Bitcoin has to be promoted as a saving tool and once it is done, instead of gold and silver. I think we should get financial planners and ask them to promote it, then we shall see a huge impact.

BTC5 is too low for me to part with whatever dignity is left in me, LOL.

Movements do best when it grows organically. Converts are the most zealous prophets. We don't need a huge publicity stunt, remember hackers and criminals are already doing that for us, we don't need people to think we are also perverted mooners. There also seem to some issues to that might turn off some potential converts (the increased transaction time for example).

I would say start with friends and family first, they'll hopefully be more trusting since they know you. If they liked it then they're gonna tell others, and so on.

Its really a long way to go for bitcoin to be known by most people globally and making banks disappear, i dont think soo that this thing will happen even on the future even how bitcoin will progress on the long run banks would still remain no matter what as long there is government would backed up.

I think even when Bitcoin becomes mainstream, people will continue to use banks for a long time. The transition from fiat currency to cryptocurrency is something that can make people less dependent on banks, but banks have a lot of financial resources, and such resources can help such institutions find ways to adapt to that reality. For example, there are already cases of banks accepting deposits in Bitcoin.


Title: Re: Bitcoin Is Going Mainstream Banks Are Disappearing
Post by: mrkevio on February 11, 2017, 10:10:43 PM
Bitcoin mass adoption means the price skyrocketing. That makes the market cap to even higher, and possible to adopt by everyone. It would be great to finally hear good things about Bitcoin and make the banks disappear because banks are evil.. They seem to be good, but instead they try to kill you (indirectly - taking your money and goods).

As long as the fiat is used by people and i do not think that it will be there for a very long time and so is the case with banking,you really cannot over ride banks and its status with the current stage.Bitcoin is not at all a mainstream currency only time will tell what the future holds for the coin.

He does not know what he is talking about half of the time when it comes to the future of Bitcoin and finance. Bitcoin and crime was made for each other and both will continue to become big online by supporting one another like a symbiosis.

A "mainstream Bitcoin" is out of the question.

yeah right, bitcoin itself doesn't have a good reputation in terms of legality that's why it is very impossible that all government and banking system around the globe will adapt the bitcoin mainstream because it is not meant for legal business.

instead of wishing banks to disappear as your main goal which is an impossible thing, you should be thinking about how you can increase the usage of bitcoin. OP already has some suggestions there but it is not enough to just say these things and talk about it endlessly, we need to see some action.

Banks are the universal finance service supporters. Right now bitcoin replacing all the needs similar to banks takes place after years. Increasing the usage as mentioned is quite good. People need to spread the existence is much important for growth of bitcoin.

We are always talking long term... ofc banks wont disappear in 5 years... but as things like bitcoin grow and old people using traditional banking die... i bet for 30 years from now we will see the last banks remaining, as we see now CD's or floppy disks

Most of these advice are too extreme for normal people. I don't really want to promote bitcoin by painting bitcoin's symbol on my naked butt and jump around like crazy.
While it may gather attention and spur some curiosity it is not the way to promote serious cryptocurrency which can rival the banks.

Discussion & education is the key. Most of bank clients are oblivious and have no idea how economy works.
We need to enlighten them and show all the cons of bloated banking system.

Might want to go to this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1786427

Apparently the first bitcoin bank opened up in Austria.
But it quite isn't what you would think your typical bank would be able to do with the bitcoins you would deposit.
It sounds more like a services and loans type place where you can withdraw but your deposits are just your own wallets. :-\
So no real point in it really. >:(

sorry but I dont think it is likely to happen , buy making bitcoin mainstream that doesnt make bank to disappear , bank has invested many years to people and ofcourse they will not allow their bussiness to be ruin just be because of bitcoin and lastly bitcoin and bank are different entities there is no way they will contradict each ither actually I think having bitcoin in mainstream will be use by bank to make it as an advantage contrary to what you are saying

for me bitcoin is just an alternative currency people should stop thingking that if it will get impemented it will wipe out the current system and will just be bitcoin ! bitcoin was already noticed by the government and they are making way to properly use it to make it as an alternative money that will be used by the public but my implementing it , it will not abolished the banking system ! it will just be like paypal or any other financial services that already implemented all over the world

There is a long way to go before Bitcoin becomes mainstream, but big steps have already been taken, and it seems Bitcoin is on the right track. Either way, that does not mean the end of the banks. Institutions with so much money and political support can find some ways to adapt, but surely fewer and fewer people will depend on it.

Bank will not disappear as this system is long proven that they are making money and people who control it will do all things by just not messing up the system that giving them big money. Banks that are going bankrupt are the one whos into the game not for a long time thats why they are being beat up by the larger banks as those banks can liquidate their money easily .

I do agree to the statement that bitcoin is going mainstream, it's already happening right now and we can see the increased adoption, not yet the real mainstream but moving in that direction, probably in few years bitcoin would already have established itself as a worldwide currency.

Regarding banks disappearing, not sure about that, even if bitcoin does go mainstream that doesn't mean the previous economical system is completely changing, banks do serve a benefit for people and therefore it will continue until something cover that same need.

I don't think they are regulating exchanges for that reason. I read they are concerned about disinvestment from their country. Local investors are depositing yuvan into exchnages and withdrawing btc into some other countries hence youvan value might get decreased.

Back to the topic, yes, when we are having bitcoins for everything why we need banks and fiats.

Yes... that is true, "Bitcoin is going mainstream" because of the news and updates of bitcoin and also the reflection of the price to people, if bitcoin price is high then it is a good sign that bitcoin is doing well and it will results for attracting people to come in to this new kind of young currency and invest their money.

But that statement about "Bank are disappearing" seems impossible. Yes banks tax too much and almost of what you said is right but we need to accept the fact that the banks will not disappear because of bitcoin. They have strong foundation like the support of government which makes them harder to disappear. Fiat and Banks are the traditional parts of our country since of the old days to modernization. Just accept the fact.

Promoting bitcoin is the best thing to do to continue being mainstream and attracting more people to invest. Using social medias and other social networking sites like youtube will be the good target since most of the people here in the internet go to those sites.

I don't think Banks will disappear once bitcoin go mainstream. Banks has been there for hundreds of year and up to now they are here and will stay here for good. And banks are here for a purpose, to put you extra money in there. Although having bitcoin has its advantage, like being your "own bank" and for pseudo-anonymous transactions, every country needs a Central Bank to regulate and create fiat monies.

Not in our lifetimes, I guess. People would still willingly embrace the fact that they are being fucked by the banks and they would do nothing about it, well that's the case for over a few hundreds of years now. Also, as long as there are governments backing up banks, they wouldn't simply disappear, not in their watch since they are also making money out of these banks and they couldn't get something out of bitcoins.

Banks are evil... Not many people agree with this idea until they're going to find out what the real reason is for them being here. They're not here to help us, they actually exist to rip the money off us. :D

Too many people are falling in their scam.. It sounds nice until you get into it. Nobody from there will ever give you money for without profiting off you, this is what I have learned.

Looks like Chinese politician method is one of the best.
They are not allowing to withdraw bitcoin, that will cause price increase and more attention from media while price is rising, attracting more investors.
I don't think they are regulating exchanges for that reason. I read they are concerned about disinvestment from their country. Local investors are depositing yuvan into exchnages and withdrawing btc into some other countries hence youvan value might get decreased.

Back to the topic, yes, when we are having bitcoins for everything why we need banks and fiats.
This is probably one of the biggest reasons why the Chinese government is taking such measures. People were using this method to transfer money out of the country for years back.
Regarding the use of banks and fiat currency, I think this will become obsolete if all people use Bitcoin, but no one can guarantee that this will happen.

They're evil but people still join them, there must be something wrong with majority of us, probably we're getting brainwashed even if people around the world have repeatedly saying that banks are evil but still use their services, or probably we're too dumb to realize that even if we say bank is evil we're still using their services.

Banks have been developed by the government for many decades and there are not many reasons for other people to stop trusting this system. In some points, banks are good because they help other people to keep the money in the safe place with the good interest. HOwever, as we are the cryptos enthusiast, we understand how dangerous banks can be and the crypto is the only chance for us to escape this system

But Does PBOC never say about the preventing act for the pyramid scheme? I hope you ever hear about it.

At least it's up to you to aware it looks like a scenario had made by the PBOC.

Doing such things can only make so much noise, and people forget faster than you can say bitcoin. Banks are here to stay, whether we like it or not. All sorts of banks are there, even the ones that our own government run. So as long as there are governments, banks are going nowhere. Bitcoin is rising steadily in terms of usage and popularity, but I doubt if it will ever surpass what banks can do for the world.

If you ask me... one thing that will never disappear from this society is corruption and banks. Governments just have great deals and make big money with banks, also  I don't think  that bitcoin will ever be THAT big to close banks. :/

Bitcoin is slowly becoming the mainstream. But there are still a lot of broplems who don't understand bitcoin or sceptic about it, cause of it's pretty new thing and all new seems scare, cause of it's not checked by the time yet. The main thing that hard to accept about bitcoin that it hasn't phisical for and that is just unnormal for the world who used phisical money for thousands of years. So I think bitcoin needs some more time to get recommend itself as trustworthy currency.

Bitcoin will never be main stream due to many competitors not only crypto currency is the competitors of bitcoin also the other payment method like vcc and reloadable visa and master card those are more secured and much more easy to use right now and held by banks.. so bitcoin will be hardly to become mainstream.. he had many competitors.. and i think there is no way for now..
Well we do not know the future but in my own its hard to think that bitcoin will be mainstream..

Get nude, paint spray bitcoin logo on your body, get media attention, get on the news! I will donate 5BTC if i will see your nude ass in news.
Encourage celebrities to make a Bitcoin logo tattoo on their body.
Put the bitcoin logo sticker on your car and wear tshirt with bitcoin logo.
Are you sure you are going to give away for any crazy stunts which gets media attention regarding bitcoin ,because you never know people might do it if it is for real. ;D Celebs could endorse bitcoin if anyone is willing to pay them :D and so is the case with successful YouTube channels as they might endorse if you are willing to pay them.What ever you do bank wont disappear just like that ,it does not work like that.

Your ideas are good in order to attract people attention to Bitcoin. And we are on the right track. With every passing day more and more people will learn about Bitcoin. This should encourage more use of digital currency, but it is not enough for the destruction of the banking system at this stage of human development.

Bitcoin will be mainstream but banks will not disappear, bitcoin ain't fiat so it will not replace banks. The effort to advertise or promote bitcoin is good but that is not what really need, we need the government to fully support bitcoin to get the trust of the public, without that happening, it will be hard to achieve our dream for bitcoin to be the mainstream.

I'd like to put a clear definition, bitcoin will be the mainstream payment system and not a legal currency.

I don't think that banks will disappear with bitcoin. Bitcoin will become main stream to people who believe in bitcoin, still people have lot of faith in banks when compared to bitcoin. Banks is place where they can exchange their fiat currency to bitcoin and bitcoin to fiat, banks are mediators for bitcoin and members.

That's unfair. With the current coin list bitcoin is the one which has got the potential to go mainstream and take the place of banks. Eth, LSK will grow as an alternate for bitcoin but taking the place of bitcoin is tedious.

And what will you tell people when they ask why their transaction is still unconfirmed after 10 hours, even when they included 'right' fee?

Currently we have almost 100.000 Unconfirmed Transactions and average number of transactions per second is 2.58 now.

It is not even the limit of bitcoin capabilities, it can process up to 7 transaction per second in ideal conditions.

FYI Paypal can do more than 100 transaction per second. VISA more than 8500.

Also if you have allot of money go to the top by the market exchange website and buy Bitcoin for more than it costs if you would buy at least 1000 Bitcoins in 24 for 2000$ per 1  Bitcoin price will increase allot and Bitcoin would get massive attention from media
This is the one of the best methods to make Bitcoin mainstream if you are millionaire.

I don't think a picture of my bum with a sign saying Bitcoin, PlayPal, Access, Visa or any other digital asset is likely to be good as a promotional item. :)

I think it's not about your bum, but getting media attention.
I can't figure out more ways you arleady mentioned media, youtubers, maybe hacking biggest media websites and placing bitcoin logo or video.
Using hacking to promote bitcoin is not a good idea since we will prove right all of those alarmist in the press saying that bitcoin is the currency of hackers, so that is not good.

Hacking large media mediums? Then it would really be a bad idea since we could able to promote bitcoin on a legal way but the major problem on this that government will surely block this thing specially when they know the disadvantages of bitcoin to its place.

Banks are still alive and bitcoin is still in fixing because of the block size problem that make small transaction is expensive than Banks ,but if we can get the solution for this problem, bitcoin will become real money on every countries and it will make bitcoin going mainstream and Banks are disappear.

segwit is implemented already since 0.13.1 if i'm not mistaken, the problem is the activation, and without consensus you can't activate it, we need 95% to activate it

but miners are not pro segwit and will keep delaying in the hope of another solution...meanwhile bitcoin can't scale, we are lucky that this pump is not because of more adoption, otherwise N° of TX would be much higher...

Yes, If more merchants and enterprises start using Bitcoin as a payment gateway then the people who use those services or buyers will start noticing Bitcoin and will try to use it.
To OP, I don't think spray painted nudes and bums will not be more useful for Bitcoin community.  :P

But those coins/Blockchains will be controlled and centralized.. So that people come back to BTC  ;D

Segwit is implemented already, what we are lacking is segwit activation and that is up to the miners but miners don’t seem to be in any rush to activate it, so they are either buying time or they are not going to activate segwit.
