Title: Why is there no Bitcoin day?
Post by: madmadmax on December 15, 2013, 10:00:20 PM
A rather simple question, we have days for much less important causes, why no Bitcoin day? Wouldn't it be appropriate to mark the 6th of November as Bitcoin day for example?

I think once it takeoffs there might be some celebration, and recognition for the day!  Don't worry..there will be a national holiday once we're all rich!

How about any other day except the 6th of november? This community needs to open up a bit and throw away the super geeky profile...

Do we really need a bitcoin day? What are we supposed to do? Run around the streets with QR codes on our geeky t-shirts?

Duh .... its doing fine with some trumped up "promotional day". Great ideas thrive on their own, we don't need gimmicks.

What day is "Internet day", please remind me  :)

Getting a bitcoin day is as simple as making a significant number of prominent figures in the bitcon community agree upon a single day to be celebrated and an official reason why. I think that this is very feasible. We just need a few potential dates and their corresponding reasons why for people to start considering and we are on the way towards the official bitcoin day!
