Bitcoin Forum

Hey all. I live in LA and have some connections to studios/networks etc out here. Planning on putting together a pitch for a show. What are your thoughts on a hosted show on Bitcoin and crypto related events?

Here are the main questions:

What types of content would you want to see?

How often? Daily, weekly?

What things would you prefer not be covered on the show (if any)

The more media outlets the better in my option! I think there is space for a dedicated news channel in the space. Maybe have four live hours of news a day, these four hours could repeat twice taking up 8 hours of the day. In between you could maybe post self made documentaries in the way RT work. Too much live air time inevitably leads to poor journalism in the pursuit of new stories so a 24 live channel is unnecessary in my option but a 24 crypto related channel would be good. You could contact some good youtubers and publish daily videos from them on the channel. No matter what you do good luck.

Thanks. Agree the more media the better. It might be a bit ambitions to run that large of a cycle. But glad to hear that there is demand for such things. Planning on starting small w a weekly hour long segment and then working it up from there.

Cool idea. I would watch this show every day. Weekly is too rare. Events change too quickly. I want to catch up on the news.

So agreed for the show,  it will be very entertaining  and will interest a lot of people and it will be good if the show will be twice a week. But the question is, does that possible to going worldwide I mean it will be on national channel or just private channel because it will have a lot of affect if the show going to the national channel.

Since Bitcoin is a decentralized currency, everyone evaluates it according to its own understanding of it, so accept all views.
It is best to try to contact some of the known people on the network and listen to their opinions, and not to who shearing FUD(bankers,BCH FUD,....etc)


People tend to be technical only in terms of the safety of their currencies. Try to listen positive analytics.


Once a day for analyzes, once a week for technical tips

ICOs and forks

This is a good way to raise awareness. And eventually will boost the market. Im in the real estate business and crypto currency investors are trying to buy with their coins but got turned down immediately before they made the offer. It still a taboo for most of the people and business out ther.

- it would be good to talk about the positive and negative aspect of crypto.

- whats the difference of crypto with the forex and how it affect fiat money.

- daily or weekly analysis/chart on how a certain coin will move

This is a positive initiative, i hope its stays that way.

this will definitely be one event that can attract a lot of enthusiasts and this will be successful if it is organized properly. you must involve some of the leading sources, to be more interesting

Bitcointalk show is very new and effective idea for all bounty hunters and traders. In bitcoin talk show, trading, mining, ico, market caps, price hiking, price reductions etc objects are be showed.

I agree with your plan. By holding Bitcoin talk show will be more interesting and more entertaining, bitcoin talk will be increasingly known in the community.
but whether this idea will not be too risky for this bitcoin talk field itself?
as more and more people who know and know bitcoin talk will narrow the land and many home-based accounts and will reproduce sepam.

Great for the BTCitcoin part, not so sure for the latter part.

Giving BTCitcoin the positive image that it deserves (will be nice).

Weekly. I prefer to see a high quality show on a weekly basis rather than a daily show with an average quality.

Gambling, cloud mining and anything that gives BTCitcoin a negative image.

It would be great to have some charismatic personalities there, eventually having occasional guests show up (like Antonopolous).
A bit of good humor could also come in handy, but definitely better less than more and cringy.

A talk show sounds like a great idea, can be part entertainment part informative. Promotion of specific coins and projects would be okay I suppose, the show would attract advertising

These suggestions are great! Keep em coming!

I would like to see a content where OP could explain blockchain technology in a very simple way that other viewers who doesn't know already what blockchain is can understand.  And I prefer if it could be trice a week. And I also agree with @hugeblack says that ICOS AND FORKS  should not be covered, why? Because ity is not helpful to promote what is the real blockchain if there are shit ICOS to get recommendation so better out of it. Forks are not easy to understand thou so better start with basic, simple understanding of blockchain is a good foundation of information to hearers.

What types of content would you want to see?
All things (Basic Knowledge to Crypto-/Origin/Benefits/Innovation/Future usage/)
Just avoid on showing the negative side but still its much better to give some awareness but not to focused on it because instead giving a positive view you would rather get negativity.

How often? Daily, weekly?
Same as SFR said above i would rather prefer on seeing it on weekly basis rather than on daily basis which would really result in low or average quality.

What things would you prefer not be covered on the show (if any).
Scam things. (Ponzi site,Cloud mining,HYIP,Too good to be true investments)

Before we get all excited, other than your connections with networks, do you have any solid ideas about the actual products you're looking at? Any experience producing or are you only a partner? Am asking because am exploring media diversification for a project I'm working on. We haven't done anything remotely broadcast related but have toyed with the idea.

PM you?

Provided anything related good news about Bitcoin and push for others media to support it :D
Daily would be better, even though takes 30 mins only.

Bad news about crypto currencies (bad exchanges, ico scam, illegal activities that using Bitcoin as payment and any related). Last thing, those people who afraid and hates about Bitcoin should be kick out from the earth :D

Everything about crypto (not just bitcoin). Latest news and updates, sort of like a magazine or something. hehehe


Since crypto is very volatile, I think its better if we see some daily updates. Everyday there are hundreds of news going around, I'm sure that you will have a lot to cover even if you do it daily.


Those FUD's and negative publicity about crypto, specially scams and criminality. We don't need to high light those kind of things. We all know that crypto is not a bad thing, well its a disruptive technology, however I don't think that it was created to be used by criminals.

What types of content would you want to see?
Bitcoin price movement update & discussions, altcoin of the week, ICO of the week & recent news about crypto.

How often? Daily, weekly?
I think a weekly show would be a great start up.

What things would you prefer not be covered on the show (if any)
Paid ads/part from ICO or any company. All discussion & recommendations should be fair.

_________________________________

If this happened, I hope you make a youtube channel as well, mainly for the replays & for those who can't watch it due to region/place restriction.

When you are seeing a particular often sometimes you don't place value much on it anymore. That is the way for most of the people since it is not a comedy show. I suggest weekly for such show. I know of some in my locality and it is on for selected days of the week.

Amazing real life stories of those bitcoin holders that changed their lives from rags to richest. This will encourage to remove the doubt of those people that still don't know what bitcoin really is.

And it can be also an inspiration to other crypto enthusiasts and aspiring traders or investors.

It's hard to shoot everyday and it also depends to the staff on how they are hardworking gathering crypto people who loves to share their crypto life stories.

How much crypto wealth they have.

Don't include those fuds and I agree with others, anything that gives bad image to bitcoin, remove and don't add them.

I would definitely want something like this, Weekly once may be suggested with discussions regarding gain/loss of top coins and also suggesting future coins with different teams.

Having something like that of talk shows and that too related to that of the crypto currencies is one of the best way to make more people aware of the crypto currencies and that this will surely help the crypto currencies in gaining more fame in the entire world. We all must encourage such kind of initiatives and that this will also help the investors in having a fair idea of the things related to the crypto market.

But who will be the audience because I doubt that how many people are interested in these kind of show and still the world crypto currency is not known to many people,but that is a great idea if you got enough support so you have try that for few instances.

It is a wonderful idea of having a bitcoin talk show, but there is something that bothers me, if you are going to put up the show, who will host it, what will be his/her/ their qualifications, is it just going to be another jerry springer, since there had been a lot of people already that had been scammed in the US, more likely people will turn to your show for advise, and question the community. I think there will be more cons to it than pros, since there are already some trying to make a podcast on FB/youtube regarding bitcoin, and the replies they get are not that good, hopefully you can turn it around in your show, for me, what I would like to see is just, show how bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies work, do not show any analysis, let the the people find out for themselves, why bitcoin is going up and good luck, since you will be dealing with people who do not understand what we do, just like what happened to Zuckerberg.

Bitcoin talkshow is very new and effective idea for all bounty hunters and traders. In bitcoin talk show, trading, mining, ico, market caps, price hiking, price reductions etc objects are be showed.Weekly. I prefer to see a high quality show on a weekly basis rather than a daily show with an average quality.It will be also increasingly known in the community.

I would also love to see people give their testimonies or experience in bitcoin in addition to the live price chat. This may go a long way to change the negative perceptions people have about bitcoin.

There is nothing like that so far but if this thing ever happens, then this will surely work in the favor of the entire crypto market and that this will also result in a significant increase in the awareness rate of the crypto currencies in the entire world. This will also help the people in understanding this thing in a better way and that people will find it more convenient to invest in the crypto currencies.

interesting idea I think if this really want to do try to give information about crypto with very efficient.
it's good that the show is made once a week and there is no engineering element at all and still has to provide real and valuable topics for the world of crypto itself.

I would prefer weekly shows and I would like to propose this -

If you already have a planned segments, I would like to add these (if you don't have any of it):

- 7 day charts of top 20 cryptocurrencies, and you could add trending coins or tokens w/c are going up or down!
- history of each cryptocurrencies including the bitgold w/c Nick Szabo founded.(there are lots of it, and it can cover all your year long episodes)
- Any stores that accepts BTC or any other cryptocurrencies, and what these stores personal experience about it.(Most of the audience would like an unbiased report)
- Celebs who bought any cryptocurrencies and their story about it.
- Lastly, experiences of people about BTC or any cryptocurrencies, good and bad! Stories of success and failure.

Remember to be an unbiased show, it will be a great show if you do in my opinion.

Good luck with your show, and I hope you get more sponsors(I don't care if you show ICO advertisements, this could be a great idea to know more about their team)!

This costs a lot of research if the key target would be stores all over the world.
If its only for USA, I think a small team from different states would suffice.


I'd think that this would only cause a hype?
I'm sure if this is implemented (and became a famous show), more projects will try to sweet-talk any celebrities.


Yeah I agree, it's the main beef. All will be nonsense if it will not be an unbiased show.

I must say this is an interesting and also great idea. If i may answer your questions, first invesment types, exchange discussions, panic sells etc. Weekly i perefer for the begining and not cover anything make it very transparent to everyone. Thats how i think.

Yes and it will be good way to promote bitcoin all over the world because people mostly like watching talk shows, I think they will involve well experienced people of bitcoin holders and they will share good points and knowledge about bitcoin which will help a lot of new investors to invest and make it more wide throughout the whole universe, so it’s really a authentic way of spreading bitcoin all over the world.

never crossed in my mind before that created bitcointalkshow and this is good idea to introduce bitcoin technology to the public and i want to see good quality of contents inside there such as explanations for the beginners, how to minimize lost in trading, the latest news for bitcoin and update price for bitcoin and invite successfull person who able to being rich from bitcoin and share their stories because it can be motivate people to use bitcoin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tul0zz9DGA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tul0zz9DGA) Bitcoin talk show #54, and this is just one guy, there are many others who have crypto talk shows, or similar shows with many kind of names. This idea is not new, for not its popular on internet, but realizing this idea into some tv station is something different. Maybe some not so known tv stations already did it, but like someone in this thread already said, more shows there is that is better for popularization of bitcoin and entire crypto.
I suggest op to check this video, to see many other similar shows and to take the best from it and make something unique and better. Good luck my friend, you will need a lot of effort to make this happen.

Having a dedicated news channel 24 * 7 will be something unique in my opinion.. ofcourse, better too

24 hours news channel? Then for sure headlines or news would really be mostly on non necessary ones either might be not a good quality.Its much better to be on weekly basis and having a very detailed and precise kind of news when it comes to cryptocurrency matters.I do see this timeframe would make a preparation on giving such news rather than on daily basis 24/7 would really be hard.

I really fond to learn the solidity programming but there is no big sites providing the learning service for it. If there is special website came for this in various language. This would be successful move from the team. If you plan for it.
I see many people suggest you to talk the price analysis and crypto information services.
Personally I believe this would work better than anything mate.

Ye twice a week seems like a good number to start with. You don't want to over saturate you show with content. Look at 24 hour news stations...most of it is about pets and the weather haha

There is nothing like that so far but if this thing ever happens, then this will surely work in the favor of the entire crypto market and that this will also result in a significant increase in the awareness rate of the crypto currencies in the entire world. This will also help the people in understanding this thing in a better way and that people will find it more convenient to invest in the crypto currencies.

Yes, I don't like to see 24/7 news that is crappy and full of crap. A weekly basis will be a perfect it because you can have at least chosen good subject to begin it. Like the capture of the guy who stole the bitcoin mining hardware in Iceland. I'm sure it will be epic if you can cover that kind of news. But having a dedicated channel like MTV? Nah, there will be not enough news and for sure you will just keep repeating yourself if that the way to wanted to go.

To be honest I don't watch tv for years, but I know how many people around me is addicted. For them and for more popularity of bitcoin ans crypto generally we need more TV shows. Some people are watching TV 24/7 and they believe in everything they see there, it doesn't matter what it is as long as it comes from some tv show.
Bitcoin is in that stage when it has to have more shows, more documentaries, more of everything on TV. When that happen we will see how fast bitcoin demand will grow. Look at teleshops, and all other sort of stupid shows that exist on TV for years, something like bitcoin should be every day on TV.
Computer and internet is not in every house of the world, TV is in every room of every house on the world, that's how much television is popular and bitcoin deserves many shows.

The only show that makes any sense will be to create something similar to those shows where you watch the stocks going up and down and some experts give some commentary about what they expect in the next week, next month and the rest of the year, I do not think there is enough interest to create a daily show so a weekly show will be a good idea.

I would like to have an update about cryptocurrency like the hot issues that just occur, or new statement given by most influential people about crypto, I do love to have an alert about it every after 2-4 or 8 hours, as long it will be short and brief, and if they want to read more about it then just attached the link just in case.

Brief news on evenings, and more detailed summary once a week 

Sure shoot me a pm. But to answer your question yes I have production experience.

Thanks for your input everyone. I’ll be reviewing all this stuff soon. Just had a meeting w a studio to do a video podcast and another regarding a 30 min weekly show. Will keep you posted on the progress. And of course, keep the ideas coming.

I agree with the most here that there isn't enough news that you could present in a daily show.
A weekly 30 minutes show seems to be perfectly suited.

I think a mix between some topics would be a nice approach to catch as many people as possible.
Maybe divide the show in ~3 parts

• News regarding bitcoin, exchanges, crypto
• TA / Price analysis
• Some technical background; maybe explain one single mechanism each week

A TV show is a very good aproach to get bitcoin in everyones head.
Even if they only see it while browsing through the channels. This alone does increase the publicity.

It should be daily. Cryptocurrency is a broad topic and there's a lot of things that are going on. Updates on coin, events and other new releases. I just wish that the host is transparent and a true supporter of bitcoin and altcoins.

Great! Will do so real soon, am still curious to see what you can do. I think you can see a consensus from the comments here that daily content is probably not going to be digestible, especially if it's for a longish docutype show unless you don't rely only on fresh news. Weekly would be best, but understandably you want to grow an audience in the beginning so a daily show with well-researched content and analyses could build up to a weekly show that everyone would want to watch once your reputation's been built.

People are getting quite tired with daily, meaningless content... you'll also want to stay away from promoting brands, and leave a separate show for that.

We should join Talk show bitcoin to know more about bitcoin, good for your investment. Talkshow aims to provide an easy-to-understand perspective on technical currencies, the opportunity from this currency is quite obvious from the price increase but with so much risk.

Yes I think this very useful to develop the knowledge for the new comers to solve their doubt's and confusion about bitcoin and other crypto currencies and hope it will be working.

For sure, there would be no enough news since we know that Cryptocurrency market doesnt really have anytime events or recent situation that circling around and on result making it on daily appearance would really result into repetition on what have been broadcasted just a while a go and viewers doesnt really like that.Feels like the same while you are on a cable channel where movies are just on a loop. Weekly would always deliver the quality ones.

If we somehow managed to make this thing happen, then I think so that there will be no other thing which will help people in having more awareness regarding the bitcoin and the rest of the crypto currencies and that this will help them in understanding the entire concept of the crypto currencies in much better way which will also result in encouraging of more people to come and invest in the crypto currencies to have better earning.
