Bitcoin Forum

Thoughts? I really believe in it, I just finally over a month accumulated a little past 1 btc... any thoughts or suggestions? I DO NOT want to make money off her but with the way the world is does anyone see if its beneficial for her at all?  THANKS@

No, I don't see how this could be beneficial for her. Don't do it.

If you want to name her after a sweet asset, I would suggest Apple. Or Goldie.

thanks but I can see the media flooding on this? 'even a middle name?  to help btc?? I have no donations yet..

Ok, if that's your thing, a middle name that's not really mentioned except in the birth certificate or so sounds a bit better.

I would feel like selling my daughter though.

The Apple/Goldie thing was a joke, btw. Just making sure not to destroy some innocent life with a post, ha ha..

Congrats on your little girl!

I wouldnt do it. Currency of all types stirs a lot of emotion in people, good and bad. I'd say it'd cause a lot more problems for her than it will help her in life. Just look at how many wars and fights have been caused by money.

Being a name it'll have all the negatives without having any positives that'll actually help. "gee are you rich from bitcoins?" "no. my parents had one once." --> then either "and it failed and they lost their money but im stuck with the name" or "and it succeeded but they only had one, so good for him but nothing to do with me".  Im all for bitcoins, but as a name I wouldnt.

 if you want to hedge your bets it'll work out for her put the bitcoin in a an off line paper wallet and give it to her on her 18th.

Personally I think it would be detrimental to her and is not a good idea at all.

I have a friend who's mother's name translates literally to "Bring Gold."  Presumably it referred to a hoped for bride price.  She was Chinese, but I forgot what region she was from.

If you're looking for fame, you will get more media coverage if you call her Asshole.

I think its like prostituting your child before she is even born  :'( :'(

Terrible idea

That is a horrible thing to do. Even for the 'good' of bitcoin. Even as a middle name. Shame on you for even thinking that. This will haunt her for life, especially if for some unforsaken reason BTC tanks and the general population moves onto the 'next big crypto' due to demand. This reminds me of the guy who got a "Brian Griffin Tattoo" that said RIP on it... only for Brian to come back in a couple episodes later.

Yeah. Don't.

Dumb idea.

Would you have been happy if your parents had name you 'Dollar'?

Get a grip man. Giving her bitcoins: yes, cool, go for it. Naming her 'Bitcoin': not so much.

Steve / OP,

Solution 1:
You can change your own name to Bitcoin in stead? :-) !
( Just like "Kim Dotcom" did? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Dotcom )

Solution 2:
Maybe you can tattoo a Bitcoin logo full size on your body?
( Just like this woman: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/07/01/casino_tattoos_womans_face/ )

Solution 3:
Sell some organs of yourself?

Solution 4:
Offer your body to clients per hour to freely (ab)use any way they like?

Solution 5:
OK, this suggestion is serious:
(the previous ones were meant as jokes)
Get inspired by: http://fiverr.com/categories/fun-bizarre/ and offer something unique for 0,01 BTC

Good luck with generating publicity, it will help all bitcoin owners, I guess.

Regards, Michiel

Don't do it - the media will spin it the wrong way.

Plenty of other ways to help the cause.

Great suggestions, Michiel :)

Solution 4: change your own name to your Bitcoin address. So people can say "Well Mr. 1GtRVNSViobQwERuGncLg1axJAtVx2CXNt, where do you want us to wire your money? -oh wait"

You can even include "steve" in your BTC address, see: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Vanitygen

I'm not sure why anyone is taking him seriously, for her sake atleast I hope your trolling.

Do we get to put his name through a tumbler?

no bro, don't lol

Please, no.  But honestly, how about Satoshi for a middle name?

if you insist, how about B.TC or just one character BTC

I'm trying to save the child here

shame  shame on you.  exploiting your unborn child  abhorrent

I dont know what country you are in, but most country’s have a banned name list, and can add to that list at any time.
Check out Australia / New zealand, lots and lots of names banned....
you will find you will not be allowed to, and for good reason screw your head on, you are trying to make a fast buck this girl has to live with this for the rest of her life...
amusing there even was a child and this wasn’t some ploy to collect donations...

Honestly but im surprised some dickhead hasnt already tried to name there kid bitcoin...


Nowww....
IF YOU SAID.....
Im naming my baby boy....
中本哲史
Satoshi Nakamoto

I would of donated....



Banned Names Reference:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/10237682/Names-banned-around-the-world.html (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/10237682/Names-banned-around-the-world.html)
(BitCoin Will end up on that list... sooner or later depending on you lol)

'when a name, or a combination of names, is considered contrary to the interests of the child, the civic officer shall promptly notify the prosecutor, who may refer the matter to the Family Court

Carfull you dont get your children removed from your custody, in some country’s its a real offence, sweden, germany, island, norawy... Some countrys have a SET LIST of names that are LEGAL!

Totally! Like all those spanish speakers naming their kids "Jesus". Thats right, stealing Jesus's thunder. How dare you!

Seriously, who cares. It's not like she won't grow up to be a wonderful person. Her best friends will call her "bit". OP it will be fine. IT's not like you're naming her "dollazzzz". :-)

That's not that bad. It's not like you want to name her Moon Unit Zappa or Diva Muffin Zappa. The actor Rob Morrow named his daughter Tu as in Tu Morrow (tomorrow). Kanye West named his kid North West and claims his next kid will be named South. LOL

but... it's still bad.

I remember my teen years... all the kids / girls were teased (bullied) to death because of their unusual names. Every kid has enough problems with himself already, applying extra unnecessary stress is just plain stupid.

Well I'm sure this will make for a great confessions thread

I love you Bitcoin
I would Marry Bitcoin
Bitcoin your so Fine

In other words unless you want the whole entire world to talk about your daughter including the economists
Don't Do it XD

At least level it up

Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii

Now that is an amazing combo of .... name

Imagines

Snoop Dog only had 20 bucks to his name at least she will have a Bitcoin

Satoshi already happened a while ago: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=219039.0

You got to be a troll! :o

If not, dont do it! :-\

do it go on you know it makes sence

Or nakamoto? :P

might seem a nice idea at the beginning, but  naming a child should not be made with an impulsive decision

Too many rum dipped carrots you.

Please don't do this >_< In fact, where's the mother in all this? I'm surprised she hasn't kicked the shit out of you lol.

Personally I would name her Litecoin and not Bitchcoin...

call her Milli...

What a dumbass!! Why dont u change YOUR name to Btc?!

Omg....

If you think naming your child Bitcoin is appropriate, you shouldn't be having a child in the first place.

BeaTriCe?

I'd be happy if my parents gave me the middle name of Billiondollar.

Anyway, I think it's a bad idea. The time span of technology moves way too fast - the likelihood of bitcoin existing as we know it 20 years from now is dismal (not to say it won't succeed, but a lot will change in the next 20 years).

I have 2 children and figuring out names for them took months.  It's akin to getting a tattoo; you really need to like the idea for a long period of time beforehand, because the novelty will wear off eventually.  Make sure you do not make a foolish decision on a whim.  At the same time you can name you kid whatever you want and all these banned names list are just the nanny state doing it's thing.  

My personal opinion is if you really want to name her after a cryptocurrency then go with Litecoin as it sounds more feminine.

Go for it, OP, when she's older she'll appreciate it. That's almost like sharing a common name with a celebrity.

You could also consider getting her a tattoo with a QR code but I would wait with this until she's older and can consent to this.


My grandma calls her cat "Dollar", and the cat doesn't seem to be raising any objections.

Anyone with Bitcoin in their name is a legend :P

Bitcoin sounds like a name pimps and/or strippers might adopt in the future, Id advise against

dont do it. call your dog Bitcoin.

I have no idea why people seem to think that their childs name is some kind of creative space to be filled by their parents.

Call her Doge.

Please absolutely don't do that, not even as a middle name! Your child is not responsible for your beliefs and he/she will need to carry it for the entire life. It's a good name for a pet, not for a human being

please, give us a break from your bleeding heart story

*sigh*

Don't name your child Bitcoin.

Nice thinking, and you could also tattoo a QR code in her forehead so when you get press coverage you can also get donations! And maybe even sell her to a circus after you're done exploiting her! ::)


Really sad stuff, what kind of person even considers doing that to a child?   >:(:(

Lol @ all the shaming in here. Name your kid what you're gonna name 'er, but you'd better be ready for the backlash if you pick something retarded. Like pretty much any other parenting choice, eh.

First of all  CONGRATULATIONS!  Nice life changing event.

It's not my place to gabe name suggestions to someones baby,  however I would agree with some others that calling your child something like Bitcoin opens up the flood gates for them being teased later in life.  Imagine if you went to school with  girl name mastercard because he mom was obessed with shopping :) .  Imagine if bitcoin killed mastercard one day  ,  go figure!

I would'nt do this..

We dont know how Bitcoin will stand in the future..  And it is a mean of exchange, no good for a name, even a middle name.  Instead, buy some bumper sticker and put them on your car !

Excellent idea but only if you tattoo her with a QR code for her birthday

If you hate your wife and the idea of having a child, *and* have a lot of bitcoins hidden to help pay child-support and alimony, then go ahead and do it. Seriously, it's probably ok to nickname her that because the rally started 9 months ago and brought us all a lot of luck!

How about changing your own name to bitcoin

Getting back to the purpose of this idea, OP wants to create press coverage.

Can anyone think of a better way to create press than naming his daughter Bitcoin?

I think there must about a billion better ideas for press coverage.

Bitcoin Bob sounds better  

Girl.. bitcoin? Hmm, maybe.
Name her Satoshi :)

Would you have been okay if your parents had named you Microsoft?

Also, there is no way your wife would be okay with this idea.

I'm one of the most inappropriate and crazy people out there and I think naming a child something like that is just being mean so that says a lot lol.

Sounds like a lotta peeps here really ready to name their kid Bitcoin and hoping to dissuade this person from reaping the profits.

LoL its pretty obvious you just change the name after the Hype dies down, you could even just scan and alter the birth certificate and

just let the registrar know if anyone from the media calls that your girl is named bitcoin right, i rekon a photoshopped QR code on the baby pics

will turn you some nice profits too.

This is what I was thinking. (unless the mother also happens to bear a bitcoin or QR code tattoo..... in which case, poor little girl)

Someone has to put the brakes on this!

Nah let it go, Can't wait to make a donation to the baby's fake QR code after i see it on tv, like you can't name a baby Bitcoin without the QR code right ? It will be great for Bitcoin no pun intended and I'm sure we could see a $500 dollar rally out of it depending on how the price has been going until the story breaks.

Dah Faq is wrong with you dude?

It could be worse....


the thread could be "Baby for sale in bitcoin"

or worse yet: "Baby named Bitcoin for sale for bitcoin"

they where fiat tactics Bitcoin users have more intrinsic soul than that,

Hi my name is Bitcoin, I accept Bitcoins for my actions  :o

No, serious Sathosi is a better name if you want her te give a Bitcoin name..

Why not name her Bitsy?

A. its a real name for kids
B. still gets the point across

I was about to post this.

Never woulda thought I would be on the same page with Karl Marx!

I say yes, do! Worst case scenario, there's always the name change option. Besides, give her a normal middle name whereupon that one would be used. My exwife used her middle name because she didn't like Angelica. How the hell does one forfeit Angelica?

You are mentally sick and need help.  This is disturbing.

How come?

Ive decided not to, plus wife yelled at me after I suggested it, even as a middle name lol. THanks for all the input though, Im sure someone one day will name their kid that.

I knew that you had posted this thread before checking with the wife.

 ;)

It wouldn't even be funny and you wouldn't be making a point.  I have a kid, please think about the kid before thinking about your selfish need to name her Bitcoin.  Think about what she will have to go through, it's not fair to her.

If she has a dad that would name her Bitcoin, then she is going to have to put up with a lot anyway.

So your the "let's name our kid with the last thing we liked" type? Oh, what has humanity come to. But I guess you asked for advice before ruining her life. A child ain't an avatar you can name funny, decorate and then play with it. She's a human being and you'll realise it for sure when she hits her teens. It was bad enough when someone named their kid Dovahkiin. ::)

Hahaahahahhaa, badest idea ever.

Names can damage people. I thought my older brothers name was dumbass until I was 12. That's all my father ever called him.

Almost everyone I've ever met is called 'hey'.

name her SEVEN!

It's a beautiful name for a boy or a girl...  especially a girl. Or a boy.

Sure, great idea, and make sure to tattoo her QR code on her forehead before you parade her in front of the TV cameras. That'll be bank!

i hope you are kidding
the very idea is sick

you are an inhuman monster. do not do this.

wow everyone I said I AM NOT Doing it.... jeesh

If it's a girl, why not just go with Bitcoinica? ;)

Don't you dare name a child Bitcoin.

That is abuse, yo.

Arrr why not, crack on then.

Sounds good.

Exactly! Change your own name, but for f**** sake don't do this to a child who has no say in the matter.

Tattoo it on your forehead too while your at it. That would make people look twice and gain you some extra (mostly negative) attention.

Please stop insulting him. He has already made a decision.

THANK YOU!!! I realize it was dumb, after about 8 beers it sounded ok but I woke up and realized I was an idiot.

If you really loved your child you would have done this.

Gross.

Lol, best comment ever and a worthy closing word for this thread!

I dont mean to be judgmental, but using your baby as a marketing tool is fucked up.

Now you asked the question so do not blame me for my very well considered reply.

Should you name your child "Bitcoin" it would be my sincere hope that whatever passes for Child Protective Services in your area would immediately remove such child from the home and I would further hope that a Guardian Ad Litem would be appointed to the benefit of the child, that you would be deprived of all parental rights, that the child would be placed in a loving, sane home and renamed to anything which would not brand the child for life as some sort of anomaly.

I would further hope that you would be court ordered for treatment for whatever mental illness that the court psychiatrist finds of which you are possessed as indicated by the fact that you would even consider such a monstorous act.

Hint:

Never ask a question:

(1) To which you do not already know the answer.

(2) The answer to which you think you may not like.

My $.02.

:P

Thank you for your post!

You are 100% spot on!

Dutchie.

I already said I WAS NOT doing it, please send your .02 to my BTC address in my signature, thanks Dutchie.

Well, I only read the OP in which YOU asked the qustion.

I only answered the question you posted.

I would suggest that you seek medical attention for even having considered such a heinous act.

My $.02.

He said fiat, not bitcoin...

The "inhuman monster" one made me laugh.

I was drunk, I am considering AA thanks..

Jesus people, lighten up!  Different cultures use all kinds of things for names.  Yes, it's a bad idea, and probably a troll joke, but it's not that big a deal.  It's just a name.  The kid could use any name she wants when she gets old enough to speak, and she'd probably have a nickname anyway.  God knows how many hippy kids I've known have been given some crazy natural name (e.g., Catkin) and they turned out fine.

If my last name was 'Miner' I'd be sorely tempted to name my kid Bitcoin.  Except that I've never had much interest in mining and the meaning would probably be lost to history by the time the kid is old enough to speak anyway.  If the kid turns out to be a cool person in adulthood she'd probably have fun explaining the name, and the eccentricity of her parents would be self-evident which is also kind of cool.  IMHO.

Thank you!

Don't do it!

I can already think of some jokes she'll face because of her name

Hey bitcoin, let us hash you a little ?
Hey bitcoin , did your transactions grow ?
It is true that you don't know your father?
Do you have a mother or your father got pregnant ?

Better name than Bitcoin...

Sana/差な
Sa(toshi)
na(kamoto)

Google Translate says that 差な means "the difference".

You and your wife made the difference.

At best it is in poor taste. Naming your kid after money??? C'mon dude.
At worst, bitcoin fails (it could happen, remember) and her name becomes a cruel joke.

On a side note... I always noticed that hippies named their kids stuff like Star Guide, and River, why didn't punks call thier kids names like Gasoline or Death? Hippies: 1,  Punks: 0

From an article in my country:

There are
581 people called  -  Dead one
226 Pee
12 Nipple
50 Junk
71 Unwashed
213 - some equivalent to a forced blowjob
244 -Small dick

No offense but how can you afford to have a child?

Medium salary here , EU country ,  500 euros/month , children still being born

River's coming back, because of River Song on Doctor Who.

I can't believe this thread is still going on.


Oh, I read it again. It's completely inane twaddle about utterly useless nonsense.


I can't believe this thread isn't 30 pages long by now.

at least donate something for the entertainment value?????

the most important thing you can give your child is a good name. The next is a good diet. And finally... love. That being said bitcoin is a horrible name for a person.  you could instead do "toshi" or something to honor satoshi

I'm glad the "masses" have a general good sense. This is not a good idea.

'Coinye' is obviously a better (and more future proof) choice of name.

You want his baby girl starting her life with a lawsuit by an angry black guy?

And if you ever have a son, you should name him: Mark Dollar Sterling. Just to be covered on all fronts. Or perhaps Yen Rupie Jr?

Haha, guys - we're clearly being too hard on him now. 

Looks like there are people who think a little differently about your idea: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=404577.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=404577.0).

"When you hear of a kid with a bizarre name, I bet the first thing you think is, “Why would a parent do that to their child?” That’s the important and oft overlooked part: the parent makes the call, but the kid lives with it. Your unusual name choice and alternate spelling are burdens your child has to bear. Maybe they’ll work it like RuPaul, maybe they’ll get shoved in a locker, who knows. Just keep that in mind when you’re deciding which fruit or color to name your kid after."

Please dont do that!

What about whe she grows up? She won't be a baby forever.

Name her coin agnostic like cripta (criptah..) something like that.

Take it seriously.

;)

I like this answer 8)

Please no!!!!


I agree with Satoshi.

I'm not sure if you are being remotely serious, but this "idea" is so void from logic and sanity I don't even know what to make of it. I will reserve making personal judgements because it's the wrong thing to do, but this is just ridiculous, I can't even take it seriously as a joke.

I genuinely hope you would never consider such a thing, even in jest. I don't care how obsessed you are over the bitcoin phenomenon or how clever you may think it is.

You are 100% correct but for one thing:

" I will reserve making personal judgements because it's the wrong thing to do..."

No, no and no!

We make judgements everyday and making those judgements is precisely the RIGHT thing to do!

In some respects we have become so open-minded that our brains have fallen out!

My $.02.

;)

OP you should change your own name to "Bitcoin".
Or if you want less thrills, start off with a bitcoin tattoo and see how you like that. A tattoo is easier is hide.

lolz

no do not do it man!
after all bitcoin may never succeed or the next cryptocoin that your grown up girl will use will be something entirely different, with another name!

not one donation, even for me not too lol.. its ok everyone I AM NOT NAMING HER THAT!!!

So is anyone going to name their kid Sana (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=402781.msg4379464#msg4379464) or what?

I just remembered some people who lived in my area in the 20's and 30's.  My area is still pretty backwater now, but even more back in those days.

These people named their kids after the cities the kid was born in, and it formed a record of their migration across the country.  A boy was named 'Baltimore' and went by 'Baldy' (even though he had a pretty good head of hair.)  A girl was named 'Los Angeles' and went by 'Lossy'.

There is no indication that the kids suffered extensive emotional damage on account of their names even though there was at least one newspaper report on the matter.

So you where just trying to scam some money off people in pity?

no, just making note, I really wanted to know what people thought, Once sobered up I slapped myself after my wife did lol...

Give your daughter a name she can grow up with. Might I suggest, Monica, Erin, Chelsea, Lindsey, Ashley, Alexandra, Christina.. I don't have a kid myself, but those are some names that come to mind.. way better than "bitcoin".

You shouldn't name her Bitcoin. You should give her your first name. Although I'm not sure naming her Dumbass is much better.

wow thanks, I actually already named her, starts with a G and is no where near them but thanks

Girl

Just name her Satoshi Nakamoto ___________

lol

Listen to me, call her something else, and put some Bitcoins aside for her to use when she grows up.

You should name her Coinye

bad idea bro imo.

If you really call her Bitcoin expect to be murdered while sleeping at some point (probably during her teen age)

Call her BeaTriCe instead...

Your post so surprised me and made me laugh so hard that my coffee came out of my nose and all over my keyboard!

:P

This has to be a joke thread. You would need to find a retarded cum dump of a wife willing to allow you to name her baby Bitcoin. Not many of those exist that aren't strung out on crack or meth. If you have a baby with a crackhead naming it is the least of your problems.

call her Cryptonica

All right, we've all had our go at the OP; he has written that he was drunk at the time of the post and that he is NOT going to name the child "Bitcoin".

The thread has degenerated so far that attacks on his wife have come into it.

Now since we can't take him out and have him shot at dawn, we have done the next best thing which was to pillory the poor sonuvabutch on the stocks of the interent.

This guy is maybe a valuable member of our community with possibly a lot to offer, so let's consider him "reahbilitated" and give it up.

I have been one of the worst offenders and for that I apoloogise but I come by my attitude on the subject quite farily.

My first name is one that can be confused with a feminine name and according to my birth certificate, I have seven (Or is it eight?) middle names with a last name containing a "von", the result of a legitimate but somewhat removed connection to European royalty.

I started using a nickname after years of abuse and still hate my parents for naming me what they did.

In any case. it's time to give it up, to bring it to an end, to frucking stop it already!

My $.02.

;)

Thank you... I forgive you all :)

All is well and now we can all go on to great success!

what about cracky?

No one cares about your cents and dollars round here. 

I've been wondering how long it would take for someone to say that! It should at least change to my two Satoshis.

well then watch out cuz your baby girl might be trade between boys  :-\

Not if she's properly locked up in the right kind of offline wallet!

;)

You should because crypto has no value unless converted to real-world or "fiat" currency.

My $.02.

;)

Interesting that Johnny Cash's classic A Boy Named Sue hasn't entered into the thread yet!

Yes it did.

Look back.

;)

don't know if anyone has suggested this but you could always have the initials BTC   Bethany Tabatha Caitlyn. Or something like that :) that sounds much better

What about don't do that with a child that can't protect herself?

This dad will probably put her to work for him...

What?  Families working together?  Oh, the horror!  I'm sure that such a thing has never happend before else the human race would never have survivied.

If no one has mentioned it on this thread, the book 'Freakenomics' has an extended and very amusing divergence into kids names.  IIRC, 'Bethany' is one of the very common ones in recent times.  One woman named her daughter 'Temptress' as a bit of an accident thinking it was something else and was to lazy to change it.  The name stuck, and the kid (as a teen) actually got in trouble for bringing guys to her room in the apartment for sex.

In the same vein, but... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHGV3PhEg5c

You should totally do it. Sure it's irresponsible and crazy but fuck, do it!

bad idea....

Pretty much sums up all responses within the thread. But seriously, how do these ideas pop into people's heads?

"Hey, Bitcoin, sweetie, will you please come up to the blackboard and solve these differential equations?"

It doesn't really work as a male name, either.

If you are really into this idea, I wouldn't go with that name directly. Would you name your son "Dollar"?

If anything, I'd use a different language to "encode" the Bitcoin name in my baby girl's name. Something that translates as "Bit Coin" but sounds cute when pronounced in English. Or instead of "Bit Coin" the encoded term could be something like "Currency of the future".

I think bitcoin would be great as a middle name. First name gets too much attention.

Let's not tho.

yes name her doge ;D or Shiba (e) :o

no seriously, i think its not a good idea. You don't know what can happen with bitcoin or any coin in the future.

false.

you can buy goods and services directly with crypto, without ever having to involve "fiat". its a currency in of its own.

Yes, but what LostDutchman is saying is that we still convert (in our minds) to USD or EUR to give BTC prices. This is because Bitcoin's value has changed very quickly and we as humans can't cope with such unstability.

That doesn't mean it's reliant on USD or EUR. USD and EUR could crash to worthless and the value of it could remain the same. That's what i'm saying.

I think we are "a little bit" far from the topic ;D

How utterly fucking revolting.

Well surprisingly this topic is still around surprised no one mentioned it as just a symbol yet *Just came to use the BTC Symbol* Lol

Vanessa BTC LastName

I cant imagine someone having someones name or last name ending bitcoin.

Its like saying my names is Bob Dollar. lolll.

As for the beneficial part, I dont think there is much.  :P

There are a lot of people with the last name of "Dollar".   Just searching yellowpages.com (people finder) pulled up over 100 listings.

Do it, your bitcoin holdings will double without you spending a dime.

I think the reason the OP has received no donations is because he is only "thinking" of naming his baby girl "Bitcoin".  The ultimate name he chooses is up to him, so I don't see why anyone should donate for the guy to name his daughter "Jennifer".

I was joking there. He said he has accumulated a little bit over 1btc so with another bitcoin he will have 2 bitcoins ;D

I thought it was cool until i saw how eager he is in getting donations... :/

He probably doesn't even have a wife! This could all be made up for all we know.

Either this forum is full of trolls and incredibly gullible marks, or this forum is full of total morons.  I hope it's the former.

Drop out of college with your 0.5 bitcoins so you can watch your "investment" grow, then go knock your cousin up and name the incestual lovechild dogecoin!  Good idea.

By this time next week, you'll be able to live happily ever after on your yacht with your sisterniece colgate and daughterwife dogecoin after your 0.5BTC becomes worth infinity dollars.

"My daddy sold my name to the internet for advertising"

If I could get money, I would change my name. :P

...and enough to change it back ;)

To reiterate what everyone has said. Don't do this! Not sure what it would be to achieve. Yeah it would get media attention maybe but it wouldn't have a huge pact on the bitcoin economy if any. Don't do it to her. You will regret it.

I disagree, I don't think it'd get ANY media attention outside of new sites. It would have gotten media attention last November, but not now.

Well, you and I are almost on the same page!

The problem with crypto is that it cannot be used at 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 9999999999999999999999% of the merchants or services on the planet so it must be converted to something that is.

I am not seeking to change the World, I am not trying to bring crypto to the masses; I am only and I repeat ONLY trying to make money!

Mining BTC is an exercise in futility, so I mine LTC (And occasionally other scrypt), convert to BTC and then SELL OUT for good old US DOLLARS!

I keep some lying around for speculation and reinvest a substantial portion of my cash proceeds into more scrypt mining equipment.

Regardless of what anyone says, it is really ALL about the money and by "money" I mean dollars, dinars, drachmas, rubles, rupees or pounds fucking sterling.

UNIVERSALLY SPENDABLE STUFF!

My $.02.

;)

How can I stop seeing this thread in my list of "new reply to my posts"? I've already "unwatch" but still annoying me...

Lol

I dunno.

I have the same problem and have tried everything I can think of to get rid of it.

:P

And that almost is where we diverge. I know that currently Bitcoin cannot be used on its own, but I firmly believe that as the system matures and more and more people get to know it, it will become stable and thus will be usable everywhere in the world, and without having to check USD/BTC price every 5 minutes.

I don't seek to change by BTC back into Mexican Pesos, but rather to spend them directly.

I AM NOT NAMING HER THAT, wish someone could delete this thread,thank you, she is to be born FEB 5th 2014

I'm of the same belief. I think the system will mature and will be more accepted publicly. As someone else has pointed out though, at least immediately, any shops or online stores will likely cash straight back to fiat when they take Bitcoin. So not sure how the price will be affected by more adoption.

it's your choice but personally I don't like the idea and the fact that your daughter will be linked to this name throughout her life,and possibly made fun of at school in the future.

Haha. You're own fault for starting it!

Yeah, buddy. Shouldn't have even thought of that, yet alone posting here. Don't write anything on the internet you're not prepared to get ridiculed.

Op, you should have ability to close this thread.

Just so you know.

Yes please close it, I hate seething this useless thread when I click 'show new replies to your posts'
