Bitcoin Forum

We just published our 5th video of the series "Bitcon For Dummies". In each episode we try to explain in just few minutes a common myth or misconception about Bitcoin.
Released seconds ago, "21 reasons why bitcoins are better than dollars!"- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XImwmL4eBXk
EDIT: The video was removed for violation and no specific reason was given. The appeal was rejected so it is not a mistake. For some reason they don't like this video. Here is a mirror http://vimeo.com/102230977
See for yourself if there is something that justifies the take down.

Here is our previous work:
 

• The first one "Finally a simple answer of what is Bitcoin!" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWYVktImeTk
• The second "Is Bitcoin a Ponzi?" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kImBgWDgIlA
• The 3rd "Does Bitcoin have an intrinsic value?" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R3Zg1KL_KE
• the 4th "Why bitcoin transactions are so slow and why there is a huge risk of double spending?" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrvinzeAymg

Only the first 4 got over 83 000 views in the short time they are up.

So, if you know someone that was struggling to understand bitcoin, just send him the video, we will do the rest :)
If you want to support the project and see more of those just share the video, that's enough!

so, how do you find it?

you click on the link, dummy.

no the sound is bad. the girl is meh. the graphics are...there are no graphics. you expect anyone to listen through that?

audio is 1/4 second out of synch with video, which is annoying.

other than that, good effort, but that girl should let her hair
down.

Please change this boring girl next time. And your content quality is going down with every new video. Please work on that...

Great way to show support to people that are actually trying to do something. This community is going worse by the day.

Kudos for going to the effort of putting these together OP.
May not be a Spielberg production, but imo all the vids are worth a watch.
Keep em coming :)

Interesting video, kept staring at BitBiz.io for some reason. :P

Definitely need more dumb downed youtube vids like this to reach mainstream acceptance.

Why dont u leave the community and try one that flatters u ? U r coming to the community to showcase your shit and u r not ready to take a feedback !!! If u cant take constructive criticism and expect every bitcoiner will oil u for hiring a girl, then I must say that u r on the wrong track. Get a Life !!!

Don't pay attention to the trolls, your videos are definitely helping a lot of people!


and BitCoinDream your criticism is not actually constructive.

Indeed, the video is simple but it can help some newcomers to better understand bitcoins, plus the lady
isn't so bad, with a different haircut could be hot  :)

Some great points made here. I think this will help people that might be interested getting some into bitcoin. I am posting this on FB and I have subscribed. Keep up the good work

thumbs up for effort.

I love last bit when one disadvantage is given: ..you can't sniff cocaine with bitcoin....

little advice: make the girl more sexy by maybe dressing more provocative. There is nothing more hot than nerdy girl talking about serious stuff.
 that's male approach.  


video very good and as usual simplicity is always the best..

Nice effort but maybe next time better voiceover and better sync, that way it won't be annoying to watch. Someone who is hearing of bitcoin for the first time wouldn't bear trough that.

How is, saying that the girl is boring and quality going down without giving actual reasons, constructive criticism? :)


Thank you to all the rest, this is a non-profit project and as such what really fuels us is people enjoying it. So, that's important for me.

I personally don't notice any off sync but since few people already mentioned it, i guess there is some. Can anyone recommend tools for fixing that?

Don't bother. Not sexy. And doesn't cover anything we don't know.

So, that girl is not sexy enogh for you? Who are you, Dan Bilzerian?

Spoiler - you won't find this a sexy video unless you're under 12  ;D

This is kinda rude isn't it?  :)

Rude? How old are you, 11?

video removed due to content
mirrors?

Are they serious?!?! Does anyone have any idea what in the video could have caused this?
There were couple of jokers about goats and cocaine but come on?

I appealed, hopefully they will come to their senses.

Video is down. Youtube is starting to be like Google adsense, show anything somewhat sexy and your account is already in danger of being taken down.

Man, I wanted to watch it.

Youtube is owned by Google, as far as I know. Its full of censored and deleted videos. I don't think they took the video down because of bitcoin in it, as they have incorporated btc/usd in their search engine.
 

 
 The one inconvenient is the fact that the final number of bitcoins is limited.

I appealed and they rejected my appeal. Still we don't have a reason.

you can use dailymotion or liveleak for mirrors.  :)

Well, if I were to choose right now, in front of me, take 1 btc or 1 hundred dollar? Well,im choosing the hundred dollar.

That's only the theory. In practice the common man will still prefer going with Fiat rather than Bitcoins. However things might change.

It's funny how the interpretations, for or against, generate about bitcoins. The real thing, it's happen now, people was buying bitcoins about 350 us$ per unit. May be, there're insane. Why invest that quantity of money for a digital currency?

There're lot noise about the anonymous transaction, of course, all digital, have a record, even that. It's not a solution for illegal stuff.

Thanks for the share. Bitcoins is giving tough competition to real money now.

BTC is and always will be better than Dollar 8) 8)

I am thinking something different when I saw this kind lines written somewhere and people say Crypto currency is the freedom.
