Title: Tim Draper (USMS Auction Winner) on Colbert Report (Reddit Move - Discussion)
Post by: Initscri on July 24, 2014, 03:22:58 AM
Discussion from a post from Reddit.

He is on the Colbert Report tonight. Any expectations? Any guesses on if he will mention the auction and Bitcoin or not?

I know Colbert has mentioned Bitcoin before so I assume it will be within discussions.

i wouldn't be surprised if they talk about it.. it's made tim draper almost a public figure, at least with us people.

Just watched it. Nothing was mentioned about Bitcoin; only his plan to split up California into 6 separate states.

Was a while back. They never mentioned Bitcoin. It is a shame. I was expecting Colbert to mention it considering the fact that he has included it within his program before.

This could be a real catalyst considering there is about 1.9 million average views in the 18 to 48 age group. This is a big opportunity for Tim to explain why bitcoin is the future of money.

I hope his six Californias thing doesn't make bitcoin look insane

Thank God, that guy has no business being on camera. He sucks at articulating himself.

He's already covered Bitcoin in a *sarcastic* way.

It was good coverage at the time 04/17/2013 when Bitcoin was still needing media coverage (as it still is)
