How looks my Nxtmyths paper
- full of mess, but I can show this:


then I am coworking with Ricky on the infographics about Nxt transactions (vs. Bitcoins) (he will update my texts here:
https://i.imgur.com/IhcjIhi.jpg

and this is my current plan what to deal wit the unclaimed 2-3 millions (or donations from any other stakeholder)

60 articles, 50 infographics, conferences fees, tournaments, videos, translations....


- I am willing to work on these things 12 hours/day, 6 days/week

Someone suggested a creation of the PR Commitee and many people voted for me to lead it, here is my proposal, about people, who might be there. These people would have to agree on using money from the table in the picture.

Reason Magazine (reason.com)

Dear bybitcoin,
we discussed it with utopianfuture, I would lead the campaign for your bounty (with cooperation with others), here are the 2 week / 2 month plans in short version:

   A) 15.-28.2.2014: Get existing and new:
   1. Articles (!) (with uniquehorn)
   2. Infographics (!) (salsacz)
   3. Videos (salsacz)
   4. Scientific Papers (utopiafuture+salsacz)
   5. Reviews (!) (community, salsacz)
   
   - Use it all for:
   
   B) Only if we have solid client (it could be 30 January), then:
   1. Better Swarm group - email alert  by google form + recruiting in all forums (nifty, salsa) (22.1.+)
      a. Reddit voting
      b. Youtube comments
      c. Articles in magazines comments
      d. Famous Facebook pages comments
   2. Searching for / Contacting crypto celebrities (salsacz, others) (30.1.+)
   3. Searching for / Contacting bloggers, journalists, counference speakers (salsacz, others) (30.1.+)
   4. Group brainstorming about viral videos and campaigns (18.1.+) (salsacz)
      a. Viral campaign about expensive Bitcoin and cheap Nxt network
      b. Study viral marketing to get to the CNN..
   5. Looking for new online tournaments for Nxt - contacting people (18.1.+) (salsacz)

If we had PR commitee funds:
6. Giveaway: 200x?? NXT for people sharing Infographics, videos, articles  on Facebook, twitter, forums and vote in Reddit (salsacz) (February) (no new accounts, proof link/screenshot, depends on number of followers, filled tasks)

nobody says to go up now.. 6 months is a good time to get prepared

BUT - Bitcoin is famous because it was first. So if there will be any other PoS / fork with huge marketing asset, they will be the first because of the media attention

What could a PR commitee do with the funds, just a quick idea, feel free to comment:
60 articles, 50 infographics, conferences fees, tournaments, videos, translations....

We can always give less to the giveaways and more to the articles.. However it is important to have the right infographics before any giveaway

I think anything between 2-3M should be fine

Someone suggested a creation of the PR Commitee and many people voted for me to lead it, here is my proposal, about people, who might be there. These people would have to agree on using money from the table in the picture.

and my voiceover, but he said if he should get something, it can be given to nexern.

some quick ideas

I checked all BCNexts's posts and there had never been any time limit or number of stakeholders

marcus: so there are 50 Mega in 6 accounts without public key (I looked at your first A messages)

you could also buy an alias with short explanation and link to the explanation

if they waited 6 weeks, 6 months, 6 years... there would still be angry people
