Seriously have you looked at gyft?  Gyft will let you instantly turn your BTC into a target gift card which you can spend like cash at the store.  It works beautifully.  You can spend your bitcoins at hundreds of stores this way.  The stores don't lose because Gyft does the BTC to cash conversion so the stores get paid in cash and they don't take the BTC risk.  You get a giftcard at the current BitPay exchange rate which is usually better than if you tried to exchange for fiat, and it is instantly available on your smartphone (or you can print it out) to spend in the store. 

I may have to do that now I guess Smiley but wouldn't be nice to go to Macys and just buy my stuff using the coins? That is what I was referring.

But thanks on the tip, I may use it for regular purchases.

Well, that was kind of my original point. I want to be able to buy stuff I like but can't find stores accepting BTC and selling those things.

I have saved a little but willing to spend some like today if I could find a store.

I want to buy a MacBook Pro with with BTC. That is my goal.

Well you wont be able to buy a macbook if you spend all your coins now, will you?

So basically you want other people to spend their coins now whilst you hold on to yours until they become popular enough so you can buy a macbook?  Grin I'm sure somebody will be selling a macbook for Bitcoins sooner or later. Put a request in the Goods section.

Wow somebody is in attack mode. Didn't I just said I will hold some and spend some? And that I would spend right now if I could buy the things I wanted? Relax ok Wink

True, like I mentioned in my other post. I do treat it 50/50. Save as an investment but willing to spend them if I can find stores carrying the things I want.

Lol I did not notice that... I meant to say "of getting paid in bitcoins"

Funny, hey but who knows maybe they are willing to do both haha

i used btc to buy this.
im doing my part...

Cool, so you are the one in the news?

So I guess to sound the very main topic of this thread: Baby, you are THE rich man too

Not to derail the topic but I have seen some negative comments surrounding you... I guess that happens when you buy your first lambo, right?

Neg eh? I'm not really a reader of the media but I'd like to know how this could be a bad thing.

I guess I should have mentioned negative in the forum, but yeah my comment:

was referring to jealousy from other members.

Actually, when the news was out about you buying the lambo, I thought this was a milestone in the btc history. Just like the guy spending 10,000 btc to buy pizza a few years ago. Wink

But the reason My Female Friends are not into it is because they argue why change money to BTC then back to money to buy what they want. And that is also my problem, we need to spread BTC and get more merchants on board. And no I don't want to buy a sex toy online. I just want some real stuff I need.


Maybe when more freelancers get paid in BTC for work done, it will help adoption. Bitcoin is ideal for paying freelancers (IT, cam girls or any other job) where location of the freelancer who is doing some job for you is irrelevant

Excellent point. I have a few photographer friendz that love the idea lf getting laid in bitcoins. Two of them have wallets and cojns in them already. One says 100% of people he has asked about them does not know what they are lol

But the second guy travels a lot. He hates having to use his credit card at small shops or to have to exchange currencies, or to have to hide his money in his belt, shoes, socks, shirts, underwear, etc.

They will come with time as they recognize the sales they may be missing out on.
I can help you out while we wait for Netflix to accept Bitcoin  Smiley

Now that would be awesome. Perhaps I can get a second job part time that pays only in bitcoin. That way I won't need to exchange from dlls. Smiley

Hye~! , been long, how've you been doing lately ? : )

Doing great Smiley busy with the holidays and stuff. How are you? Still playing and spoiling movie endings for people?

Why do you think that is?  Don't women like making money?

I think I can get some friends to join the forum but most of them probably would not be interested to be honest. Not surprisingly male friends are the most interested on bitcoin. Which is how I got to hear about it and followed it.


Well a few remarks:

1) I was talking about my female friends. So no need to generalize all women.
2) oh you bet we like money Wink

But the reason My Female Friends are not into it is because they argue why change money to BTC then back to money to buy what they want. And that is also my problem, we need to spread BTC and get more merchants on board. And no I don't want to buy a sex toy online. I just want some real stuff I need.
353  Other / Off-topic / Re: Would you get naked for bitcoins? on: December 19, 2013, 09:20:06 PM
of course Cheesy

I think this question should apply only for female members of this forum, which are around 2% Cheesy

2% will make us what? 20?! That's a huge number lol

But hey don't genderize the request! There may be one rich lady somewhere here willing to part from some coins for an attractive, geeky and cute guy (18+ of course lol)

Being able to convert BTC to currency is great, but I was referring to being able to go to a store and pay with bitcoin.

I agree the price fluctuation would literally bankrupt most businesses. They won't be able to swallow a 50% lose in profit from one weekend to the next one. This is hurting BTC.

And another problem is that I would like to be able to buy stuff I really need or use directly! Like empowe mentioned. Go to target and buy stuff. That would be a dream.

This would spread them shinny cute coins around. And people would start using them widely and a value would be set.

And can't we help those in the UK mentioning that coins are super scarce? I am willing to sell one or two haut for helping Smiley but I have no intentions of becoming a trader.

Kwoody, did you transferred coins or did you exchange them to currency?

If we think the human body is degrading, then we have bigger issues

Different people will interpret it differently. Here, the body is exposed in order to receive bitcoins. Some might say it is a work of art. Some might say that it is just another way of earning money. Some might even say that it is prostitution or porn. 

Well prostitution would imply exchange of a sexual act for economical benefits. So that does not apply here.

But yeah I hear you, it vastly depends on what the end user think is his or her moral boundary. Some may say Victoria secrets catalogs fall into the porn category because the pictures are supposed to be sexy and provoke.

But then what about a picture of me standing in front of the camera naked. Just a straight picture of the female human body naked. I would say that is not pornography. And if it fetches a million coins, well what better.

We weren't talking about doing any sexx scene, or being humiliated in a pic, or doing anything un natural.

Just check the greatest master pieces, some have nudity. Heck, most virgin representations have some type of nudity.

I would tell my family that I saw an opportunity to secure our future and I took it. Then I would fund schools and nonprofits with most of the gains.

We just need to start spending our coins so that merchants see a value. Spreading the coins will stabilize the value or at least make it gain value in a healthier way.

Hording the coins with dreams that tomorrow it will reach $40k does not help.

I want to be able to buy express, vs, Macys, etc. But they wont take it seriously until we start acting more mature about this.

How many rich btc people do we have in this forum?
358  Other / Off-topic / Re: Would you get naked for bitcoins? on: December 19, 2013, 02:57:04 AM
Heck no, considering .1 BTC is $50, no.

Because who knows one year later some random co-worker might find your picture and show it to other co-workers, then you're fcked big time.

maybe your hot co-worker might notice it and like what she sees. then you get free BTC and a lay.

I like the way you think mr, have my like Wink
