Post by: Velkro on April 01, 2014, 05:10:42 PM
Recently i generated new vanity address 1veLkroTLLvky76tJEKr2VmEpEPtdjkJZ @ http://bitcoinvanitygen.com
But i never used bitcoin address other than generated in multibit client, will try to send with script from my address
Can someone send me 0,0002 btc which is 0,09714 $?

It's useless to send 0.0002, so I'll just send you 0.2

0.0002 or 0.2 aren't enough,
2 BTC looks better actually !
Can i send you this modest amount of bitcoin Velkro ?

Why don't you just send some to yourself instead of asking others?

New type of scam:
- I need some BTC for testing purposes
- Sure have some!
...
- Profit!
;D

I didn't say you were scamming, but people tend not to give Bitcoin away for free to those that ask for it even if it's only a tiny amount.

It really bothers me when people act like the whole community is horrible when they don't get what they want right away.  If i had scene this sooner I probably would have sent some coinage but not now.  Nobody is perfect but there is a right and wrong way to handle these types of situations.

You shouldn't send money to people for nothing. If you do you'll just encourage more beggars. You'll also get people PMing you for handouts.

when I was first introduced to Bitcoin people were giving it away so others could use it and get a better understanding of Bitcoin.  That spirit of generosity made a strong impression on me and I think the community should keep that way of thinking alive in some for or fashion.  I think it will be a very bad thing if that type of mentality is lost.  Not saying this case is the same situation but generally speaking I think donating coins to help someone understand the tech is a very good thing all around.

I agree with that kind of foundation, but I think unfortunately people just want to get free get rich quick money now.

Yes this would be nice. Even though I dont have a lot I might have send a little to OP, but then I realized that his vanity adress costs 0.03 BTC. So while it might be true what he wrote, he payed ~10% of what I have in total for his adress, we must have more or can easily get more. So all in all OP is part of those who destroy that mentality. It might have been an april fool's joke though.

That mentality also worked quite well for Doge. When people unfamiliar with cryptocurrencies received a few Doges, they saw how fun it was to actually control their own money, do whatever they want with it. Plus the excitement of seeing the huge fluctuations in value. I'm sure many bought cryptos after that :)
