Around the world? Good luck, Bitcoin adoption in other countries may be skimpy. I'm guessing you'll have a hard time in Singapore...

I am guessing you are from the U.S., and "other countries" means "outside of the U.S."?
Breaking news for you: if you look at the IPs of Bitcoin nodes, and at the number of internet users per country, you will see that there are many places in this world where adoption is higher than in the U.S.
Let me help you (data from few months ago) - number of nodes per 100 000 internet users

1. Finland 3.5
2. Sweden 3.5
3. Norway 2.7
4. Canada 2.5
5. United States 2.2
6. Australia 2.1
7. Iceland 2.0
8. Israel 1.9

This is terrific news! Beccy and Austin have inspired me to take a similar journey only I'm going to use Goldcoins.

Love the videos and awesome vibes!  :) :D ;D :D :)

First, a quick aside: Who'll be the first to travel the globe only using alt coins/cryptocurrency? Maybe a slightly easier task, though I'm currently only a Bitcoin guy.

Excellent, excellent video presentation.

Seriously, this is top priority, and in no way this issue shouldn't have been fixed already. This is a disservice to everybody who has donated one satoshi or more toward this noble cause.

FIX IT!

Now, I want to supply that piece of barn to have it carried with them around the world to be signed.

Would they like to be on at least one radio show in Chicago when they pass through this way?

Okay, I just left a screaming message for the developer to GET THIS FIXED. I wish I knew how to do it myself. I'll report back in the morning. Yes, we want to be on a radio show! Which one and how?

Hmm..
Going to "live on money" for 90 days? 

Forgive me for not wanting to to donate. 

Raphael Fellmer and Daniel Suelo will not be impressed.

Austin and Beccy are already doing it. The project has been going now for more than 50 days. They have used only btc for their everyday expenses like rent, groceries, gasoline, exercise facilities, lessons, farmers markets, and other stuff since July 23rd. (They have to pay taxes, credit card bills, and student loan debt with US dollars and that was originally outlined in the rules.) They have used about 33 businesses, for their needs and wants, and with about 2/3rds of those businesses, they persuaded them to accept btc.

Thanks for tipping me off to Fellmer and Suelo. They both look like fascinating characters, and it looks like Suelo lives in Moab, Utah - not too far from us. Maybe we can connect. I'll have to see if I can find some video content for rent or online, and see how the stories are built.

I appreciate the feedback.

Cheers,
Theron H.

I love the experiment.... I saw some of their "honemoon on bitcoin" vids, ha ha, editing out the klunky part of living on bitcoin.

Happy Trails!

Okay, Connor said he fixed this, so the website should be able to index properly. Do you have a contact for a radio show?

Thanks for your support!
