Title: I am going to spend my coins.
Post by: scooter on June 22, 2011, 01:31:10 AM
So much of the focus has been on the exchanges lately, and the goal of so many people is to earn coins and cash out or buy coins and play the market.
That's fine, the market is important. But the people who have set up bitcoin related businesses need some love.

So, I have decided to spend my coins rather than constantly watch the market.

Are you looking to buy anything in particular?

its not so wise to do with such a volatile market for the buyer and seller. i pray for the day btc becomes a more stable price, with signs of a slow but steady increase. i think by the end of the year we should have some pretty good projections.

You could always play BitLotto!  ;)
It would be great to have someone win and spend it rather than keep it!  ;D

While I agree with your projection, I think we should leave it to the seller to decide if it's wise or not. I see a lot of people who think this way and abstain from spending. I think it's a mistake and a huge loss for the Bitcoin economy. Volatility mostly hinders auction style contracts, but instant agreements should and do work fine. ;)

Maybe someone will spend the coins stolen from a friend's account on you.

I sell hempwick, an amazing butane lighter alternative.


It makes your smoke smoother and better tasting, as well as better for you!

Check my sig for more details.
Also have some computer parts I'm parting with for bitcoin but the hempwick is my main business.

Thanks,
Shfinkel

I think there needs to be more of a fun factor associated with BTC. Everything now seems to be trading, gambling, hoarding, and constantly worrying about making a profit.

We need more games, live performances, artists, and creatives to offer FUN stuff that will bridge the gap to the gap to the mainstream. This is the stuff that people enjoy spending on.

Oh this can definitely be arranged. I have a marker and limited draing abilities,  but I'll come up with something.  ;)

But seriously, I have some friends who are starting a business and I am going to help them get set-up to accept bitcoins. They create embedded systems for a variety of applications: data loggers, anonymous wi-fi servers, LED grow lights, etc. Think you might be interested in something along those lines?
