Title: Where to spend 0.50 Euro worth of bitcoin best? [gambling excluded]
Post by: HerrAndreas on March 26, 2014, 12:51:57 AM
As my fascination for the experiment of bitcoin has grown to the level, that I feel an urge to convince my real world peers to give it a try. I want to give them bitcoin at value of 0.50 Euro via email from my coinbase* account.
I also want to accompany this present with instructions for setting up different sorts of wallets and a list of places to go first in the world of bitcoin and ofcourse also places to spend them.

So my question is:
Where would you send your best friend to go and spend/donate this small amount?
anything from donating to wiki/ -leaks or -pedia  to wicked adult entertainment** or online games***.








*...if you know of another service with comparably low number of hoops to jump through before being able to actually move bitcoins from one wallet to anther, please say so.
**...criminal activity of any sort is not considered to be "wicked adult entertainment" but as "criminal activity" and as such out of the picture.
***...no gambling. it is either unfair or idiotic or both ;)

If you don't know where to spend this,
just take your money and donate to the ICRC.

Indeed OP wants to introduce his friends to the bitcoin world.

Hm I highly doubt it you could get anything more than a cup of coffee with 0.50 euros even online.

Gambling will just make you lose it all, just keep it in your wallet and wait for the next spike  ;D

this is the smartest thing to do with bitcoin at this time. price will go up so think of it as an investment unless you use it to buy goods on regular basis and buy and sell often.

Lots of student run cafees at my university sell coffee for .5 € Some even sell for .4 € but then you have to wash the cup yourself.
50 Cents for a coffee is a reasonable price if you dont pay for the starzac logo.
