Title: Hit it with the Fork
Post by: Bitcoin-hotep on July 23, 2014, 10:58:19 AM
We need a Bitcoin fork or clone or whatever that can go mainstream. A coin that will sell like crack (that is the standard for music, so why not coins?)

Everyone's inventing some stupid coin and claims that the world needs exactly that coin, yet they don't get the fact that the world just needs one coin to be accepted and Bitcoin is already the most probable candidate for that. We should focus on it.

Dude we have Ashton fucking Kutcher already promoting Bitcoin in twitter, we also have Snoop Dogg on there, it's happening. We just need to hit critical mass and it to be accepted in the main buying places like ebay, so everyone becomes aware of it.

I sometimes wonder if in the future, rapers will rap about balling on Bitcoin and not on the dollar, even tho "dolla" sounds a lot more gangsta than Bitcoin.

Aren't some already doing that? Or are those just bitcoin enthusiasts with a minor knack for rap music? There are a lot of mediocre-quality novelty songs available on YouTube already!

Yeah of course people are making songs about Bitcoin and stuff, but I mean legit big rappers like 2Chainz, Lil Wayne... mainstream rappers. How are these going to transition from dolla dolla to Bitcoin? lol.

Yeah maybe they will. Some already did. There's some minor artist who mentions bitcoins in the very first lines of his song in a not-so-nice way, but hey, mere exposure effect! :D

There is already one coin that fits your requirement. It is called Bytecoin [BTE]; it is an exact Bitcoin clone with just a different name. It was launched so that the world can have 'a fair distribution'.

Buy some BTE.

If you want it to sound gangsta, "a milli" sounds just as gangsta as "dolla."

What percentage of attempts at promoting these "forks" or "alt coins" are really because the creator of the alt has an interest in making a better coin?  2%?  It seems it's always about letting the creator profit themselves.  There is no MAJOR reason why we shouldn't just go with Bitcoin.  As long as it survives anything can be fixed with a hard fork.

I found this guy's page. He makes hip-hop beats and takes bitcoin tips.

Some of them are actually pretty good, like this one making fun of our "systems"

Dolla can also rhyme with more words. What can Bitcoin rhyme with?

well thats the art of rap. if people can make hard words rhyme with something else and make it sound decent, then they will become kings of the music industry.

i hate rap songs that stick with easy words. as it reminds me of nursery rhymes.. so goodluck to all you music people out there that can be creative with bitcoins

I went to the store and bought a pork loin bitch asked if i had cash i said hell no only Bitcoin.

BOOM- I am not a Thug Rapper my rapper name is #Babyclown.

forgive me its crap (my poetic lyrics below), but thats the fun of it

some guy seen a webcam ho' with a Qr code on her groin.
he couldnt enter the ho's webchat without payment to join,
so he sat there sulkingly knowing he couldnt even mine a batch.
so there was no hope in him begging her to show her snatch.
so there he sat sadly with a bulge in his loins,
because sadly it dawned on him he had no bitcoins.

Why would you fork it? Doesn't make any sense. It would just destabilize everything and also push the value down. What's worse than a currency of which there are multiple incarnations?

Sounds a bit clunky in my head but I suppose a talented rapper could make it work. Depends on the rhythm. You win :)

The only coins that seem to have a purpose to me are/were NMC and TBX/LTC.

Namecoin because dot-bit, Tenebrix because ASIC resistance (and later Litecoin) but that doesn't seem to be going too well right now.

Mastercoin has its ups and downs too.

Ultimately Bitcoin's market is the best thing a coin could have, so I'll be sticking with that one.

NMC is awesome. I'm actually writing a whitepaper for a nice fork of NMC and a new proof of task system.

You don't know his age and i am younger and feel the same way, don't jump to conclusions.
There are some rappers who are good people, but generally speaking they do not know how to even speak proper English.

Your mind is obviously too old and intolerant for rap, regardless of physical age.

Bitcoin will probably be the main crypto for a long time, but I think that the block times are a bit too long for my liking. 10 minutes to confirm is quite a bit, and at restaurants will you want to wait there for 10 minutes to make sure it isn't a double spend? Probably not.
