Bitcoin Forum

I am going to spend 1 BTC tonight (no matter what): Where I live, it will be midnight in 1 hour and 5 minutes, and I have to spend 1 BTC before midnight (don't ask).

Best offer will get 1 BTC. Any goods/services/etc will be considered. Whatever gets my first fancy will get the coin :) But please note that I will spend exactly 1 BTC; no more, no less.

Cheers guys.

OK, already got some PMs about this.... it's a personal bet, sort of: I'm having a house party and I wanna demonstrate the power of bitcoin to non-coiners.

All the best!

Betcoin has a 100% match on their casino and pokerroom.

You can invest in my projects, i don't have alot of rep so i suppose you don't want that.


I can refer you to a bunch of people who sell amazon gift cards 85% value.

If you gifted that 1BTC to me, I will be using it to re-open my old faucet. I loved doing it, but I just couldn't keep it running. The ad revenue was to low to pay for the amount of visitors on my website. I kept paying it out of my own pocket, but in the end, you just can't keep it running that way.

With the rest I might just buy a very small and basic 3D printer. Always wanted to have one of those. I mean, how cool would it be to be able to print your own Bitcoin badges and collectibles. I would, most likely, give them away as a present or to create awareness. ;D

I don't think you will be giving them away, check how much the materials for those printers cost.

Hey.

Faucet is probably off the table this time. Remember, I need to purchase something that will impress non-bitcoiners >)

36 minutes left. Come one people, 1 BTC guaranteed.

So you're asking for drugs? hue "something that will impress non users"

A printer costs around 100-200 bucks. Which leaves 400-300 bucks for materials. Should be enough to print a lot of Bitcoin related items to give away. I would simply take pictures of me doing it as proof that it's possible :P

So, it has to be something Bitcoiny, that can impress non-bitcoiners? Buy a gun and pay with Bitcoins? Buy a flight ticket? Buy food with Bitcoins? Show them how quickly you can send Bitcoins around the world?

EDIT: Go to a place that accepts Bitcoin, pay for their drinks and be sure to make them drunk. They will love Bitcoin after that.

No I'm not asking for anything specific. But come on, not a faucet donation.

23 minutes left. Come on people.

You could donate to Seans Outpost, which helps homeless people. Buy some precious metals using Bitcoins? You could even buy a car or a house with Bitcoins if you have enough. Goat bought his car with Bitcoins ;D

I'm one of the early donators to Sean's... this is not about charity tho :) And I am only going to spend 1 BTC (no more, no less).

18 minutes remaining!

how about you just show everyone how generous you are and donate that coin to animals aid  ;)

I don't want the whole 1 BTC from you mate.
But if I'm lucky, I want to pay my VPS and make a new website about BTC.
I want to give students from my country to know more about this awesome coin.
I want to give them satoshis and they will  have to register using their edu email, just like coinbase did.
But this time it will only be for students from my country or from Asia (since I'm from Asia).
FYI, only few people knows about BTC in Asia.
And young people are our next generation, BTC new generation and they have to know it better.

Pffff, non-bitcoiners are hard to impress, so it has to pack some punch. Buy them a Wasabi lollypop, that should do the trick. Jokes aside, it's quite hard to think of something so amazing that it would blow a non-bitcoiners brain. You can buy games with Bitcoins. Humble Bundle, Steam Games, doesn't matter. You can pay your subscription on OKCupid with Bitcoin. You could also fly into space, if you had more then 1BTC. You don't, I know, but it's still awesome.

Quote huge markup over the $2-per-kilogram cost of the plastic pellets used to make the filaments You will pay over 5$ per piece you make unless they are very small, you may be able to sell them especially if you buy the gold material and make bitcoins etc but you can't afford to give these away free especially if you can't afford the 200$ printer. "ink cost more then the printer"

You could buy a Dronequadcopter with 2 hd camera's
Awesome to make video's you will never forget, togheter with your friends.
You could also spy on neighbours ;) or catch a burglar in your neighbourhood  

It's not about the money anyway. It's about giving back to the community. ;)

Anyway, I am kinda out of idea's. I tried my best OP, but damn. It's harder then I expected. I mean, I would kill for some of those Bitcoin collectibles, but non-bitcoiners would see it as junk, I suppose. Even though some coins are extremely pretty. Like the Cold Hard Cash one from NewLiberty. ;D

This is not about charity guys. Been there, done that. This is for fun, there are times for this too.

And please no begging-msgs, I am not going to pay your debts and/or fund your altruistic projects! There's a time and place for everything.

A gigabyte 990fxa mobo with CPU 4 gigs of Ram and Corsair 800 watt PSU plus 128gig SSD.

I will even toss in a gpu  :o

I don't think that you can buy that with 1BTC, since it sounds like a decent machine.

okay, for 1btc i can sell you 1 dog and 2 cats ;) i just need to make sure they are in the good hands.

2 R9 280x Sapphire Dual X OC and shipping

I've had 6 PMs (offers) and I am considering two of them, although they are a bit lacklustre.

4 minutes left. You'll have 1 BTC immediately if you got something good :)

Well, I give up. I can't think of anything else that would impress a non-bitcoiners. Good luck everyone ;)

I apologize for finding that hard to believe, asking for money to get you a 3d printer so you can give people small expensive trinkets they will eventually lose will actually help the community.


Op go to a 3rd party site that buys you amazon items for bitcoins buy a didlo show your friends.
Not being rude but you constantly ask for a way to impress non btc users. I think btc is a whole different economy that has more flexibility then the real world. If you couldn't think of anything when you started you conversation then i feel bad for you.

Sent a PM to u ...Please check :)

Thank you guys for all suggestions and offers! I had loads of PMs and I have paid the 1 BTC (well, half of it so far...) to a fairly reputable member who I think wants to keep this deal anonymous (thank you bitcoin (no, not drugs)).

If the member wants to reveal the deal, I will post it in a couple of mins :)

You may book an ad space on a site with global alexa rank 342,374 with 0.5m+ pageviews per month.

Auction going on here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=616647.0

Edit: Looks like its gone... well better luck next time ;)

so what did you buy afterall?

Maybe you could buy a ring for your girlfriend or chocolate  ;D

Too bad I'm just seeing this thread now, I would have sold you a ton of stuff at a deep discount from https://bitcoingeneralstore.com/

edit: Just saw that you live in London so shipping would have eaten up a chunk of that BTC.

Can you withdraw your original deposited coins at any time or do you have to gamble it?
