Title: Anyone interested in a media showcase+Bitcoin donations community platform?
Post by: bootlace on May 06, 2013, 11:13:33 PM
What would you guys think of a YouTube type site with videos, pictures, music etc – with the added benefit of a button below the media that easily lets viewers submit bitcoin donations and the total donation amount being visible to all. The aim would be for artists, musicians, gamers, those in need, charities, or just about anyone to have a place to present their video/plea/work/art/stream and get some BTC funding/donation from users. Submitting content would be as easy as filling a form with the media URL (youtube/vimeo/photobucket/soundcloud/ustream etc URL) and their bitcoin address.

The spirit of Bitcoin seems to be to trust and support each other, to take out the middleman and gatekeepers to trade and prosperity, and I thought this kind of website might be useful in that ideal and can develop it if wanted. If anyone thinks this is a good or bad idea please let me know, any feedback is welcome.
