Title: Put your BitCoin address in your business email signature
Post by: Mahkul on April 08, 2011, 12:46:34 PM
This morning I have configured my own and all my employees' email message templates to put my company Bitcoin address in the signature. That feels so good. :) Hopefully some of our customers will ask what this is. I would suggest whoever can to do the same, you never know.

That rocks!

Don't forget to print your Bitcoin address on your company's business cards too.

I'd put it in a QR code too... noone's going to type 34 characters in manually.

I appreciate the bitcoin enthusiasm, but isn't it a little odd to essentially give people instructions on how to tip you anonymously on every business email? I would think something like "Now accepting Bitcoin" would be fine.

Lol, if you need to move 34 chars is that how you do it? Typing 34 buttons?

Transaction anonymity is a bit of a myth. You have to go to very specific lengths to remain anonymous, much like anonymous browsing of the web, etc.

Therefore I don't agree that giving out your bitcoin address is akin to asking people to tip anonymously.

What? I don't even understand your question.

In normal circumstances I move 34 chars around by copying+pasting. But you can't do that off a printed business card.
