Title: Our Bitcoin Report from PorcFest 2012 Post by: evoorhees on June 27, 2012, 06:29:03 PM Just finished up our report of PorcFest 2012, where we set up Bernanke's Bitcoin Exchange and preached the gospel to a thousand gun-toting libertarians in the New Hampshire wilderness. Enjoy!

"one hand holds a dollar and the other a Bitcoin. take your pick." http://blog.bitinstant.com/storage/photo202.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1340820680509 Title: Re: Our Bitcoin Report from PorcFest 2012 Post by: evoorhees on June 27, 2012, 07:34:25 PM The absolute cutest moment of the whole trip: A little girl (maybe 7 years old?) walked up to us, her father standing nearby, and she asked, with big blue eyes and curly hair, "how many FRN's is one Bitcoin?"
I wish Bernanke was there to see it. Roger gave her a Casascius coin, and her smile was epic. Title: Re: Our Bitcoin Report from PorcFest 2012 Post by: cypherdoc on June 27, 2012, 07:44:01 PM "Bernanke's Bitcoin Exchange".

It should able to accept bitcoin from a phone or something. It sold bitcoin: cascasciousimus (horrible name, btw) coins. I believe Roger refilled it at least 3 times.

My bad. Probably I misremember.
