Title: My firm is looking for investors to create a "Better Bitcoin"
Post by: newbitcoinfirm on January 03, 2015, 09:12:35 AM
Hello please excuse my English as it is not my native language. While Bitcoin is great and an amazing piece of technology, after 2 years of research our firm has come up with a plan for a better Bitcoin. You will be investing in a new company who's mission is to turn Bitcoin into the myspace of cryptocurrency, while controlling and profiting off our own better version. How will our firm achieve this? I will outline some of the basics below.

As you may already be aware. Bitcoin is an amazing piece of technology, but it isn't a proprietary technology, as in, Bitcoin isn't a unique piece of technology, as we have seen from the numerous alt coins, Bitcoin can be easily cloned and replicated. Since Bitcoin isn't a proprietary piece of technology it's just a faith currency and based on marketing and popularity.

1. We will hire some programmers to take a look and dissect bitcoin, we will tweak, reprogram it to make a better version with better features.

2. We will hire a professional PR/Marketing firm, they will help us create a more catchier, mainstream friendly, brand winning name for our "Better Bitcoin".

3. The very same PR/Marketing firm will be looking at our product and marketing it to the mainstream. We're talking about the same kind of people who are able to turn Coca Cola or McDonalds into huge global brands. Things like Billboards around the world, professionally made television commercials on Major networks, Magazine ads, etc etc

4. We will approach and pay Celebrities from Hollywood (actors, singers etc) to endorse our "better bitcoin" (feature in our commercials) Talk about in interviews.

5. Ontop of doing these things, we will also be looking at ways to demonize Bitcoin, both to the general public and governments.

We will do infomercials and interviews and articles about how bad and evil bitcoin is (let's look at bitcoins history, mtgox, danny brewster, silkroad) Bitcoin has a lot of bad history surrounding it, we can use this to scare the public to shy away from bitcoin and the only way they can feel safe is to use our "better bitcoin".

Also use paid trolls on all the social network platforms to really spread negative things about Bitcoin to make the mainstreamer very afraid of it.

Also be hiring lobbyist to approach governments around the world to encourage bitcoin to be illegal in all those countries and our "better bitcoin" to be the safer, legal one to use.

We have estimated that we could get started doing all this for a small sum of 10 million dollars usd.

Q. How will the investor make money?
A. If we decide to produce 1 billion of these (rough figures) "better bitcoin" tokens, the firm will prehold at least 10 million of these tokens. This means our "better bitcoin" just has to trade at 1 dollar usd each for us to make our money back, we project that we could easily see our "better bitcoin' being worth $100 each.


Lastly gentlemen. I want to leave you with this thought. There was a time when Myspace was considered the King of "Social Networking" There was a time when people really believed this to be a game changer and a lot of people invested a lot of money into it. Then came Facebook and blew that away. "Better Bitcoin" is aiming to be that Facebook and turn Bitcoin into the myspace of cryptocurrency.

Thank you for your time reading this, we will post more details soon as too how you can invest. All feedback welcomed.

This looks like a businness idea/plan that a 14 year old came up with during his lunch break.

Someone already tried that.  His name is Homero J. Garza, and it's failing spectacularly.

If you pick up some informercial spots, make sure you get Kevin Trudeau, whenever he gets out of jail...

"For just 4 easy payments of $29.99, you can own your own "Better Bitcoin". Bitcoin is the devil, but "Better Bitcoin" is supported by Samuel L Jackson and plenty of other Hollywood celebrities. If you order within the next 15 minutes, we'll throw in a free Slap Chop!"

How about Pandas? There could be a niche in the market for coins fronted by Pandas.

I'm definitely seeing Pandas. Billboards is fine with me. We could get really big pandas involved.

4. We will approach and pay Celebrities from Hollywood (actors, singers etc) to endorse our "better bitcoin" (feature in our commercials) Talk about in interviews.

Let's get Tom Cruise involved. I'll get on this later in the week.

Quote
5. Ontop of doing these things, we will also be looking at ways to demonize Bitcoin, both to the general public and governments.

Tom Cruise was a vampire in Interview with the Vampire - that's pretty demonic. Let's discuss it with Tom and see what he says.

Again. Let's ask tom for his extpertise.

Quote

Pandas. But check with Tom first.

Quote
Also be hiring lobbyist to approach governments around the world to encourage bitcoin to be illegal in all those countries and our "better bitcoin" to be the safer, legal one to use.

Okay sounds good.

Quote

Tom will like this a lot, but we may need more money for the pandas.

1)  You talk about your "firm."  Who is a part of your firm (first and last names, please)?  It sounds like your "firm" = you and maybe some unpaid friends of yours.

2)  Two years of research?  Can you provide specific examples of your findings and their implications?

3)  Why do you think it's a good idea to "demonize" Bitcoin when >99% of the global population completely lacks a technical understanding of how cryptocurrencies in general, let alone Bitcoin, work? 

4)  Did you make all of this up in 10 minutes?   I agree with the poster who commented that this plan has the depth one would expect an average 14 year-old to come up with during his school lunch break.
