Refilled added 0.04745121 , more coming in  I'm not sure what that multiplication and the "type this word and this number" steps are supposed to prevent? They are simple text that can be read by a bot of some kind and so doesn't stop them from running, seems to me.  |

And these opinions seem to be based on the fact that you don't seem to understand all definitions of the word
"foundation".
....
Do you want to be that people will be misled? No one is being misled, but some may not have a full understanding of certain English words. They can be educated, if they are not willfully ignorant. |

I can't think of a name more innocuous, clear and to the point, more professional, and politically neutral than "The Bitcoin Foundation".
I have not seen a better choice proposed here... except maybe one that would drop "the".
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=113400.msg1232039#msg1232039Somebody also suggested "Andresen Foundation for Bitcoin Development". Most people are familiar with foundations of this sort and even if a small minority may take it the wrong way it is easily corrected
It won't be that small minority. Many people will be misled into believing they have some sort of authority over Bitcoin. Plus, the name is a lie in itself. It's not nice to lie, you know. And these opinions seem to be based on the fact that you don't seem to understand all definitions of the word "foundation". Once again... In addition to what you think it means it also means these things below ( and given the context in which the bitcoin foundation uses its name it should be clear to most people which definition is being used ): - an endowment or legacy for the perpetual support of an institution such as a school or hospital - an institution supported by an endowment, often one that provides funds for charities, research, etc - the charter incorporating or establishing a society or institution and the statutes or rules governing its affairs Most people are familiar with foundations of this sort and even if a small minority may take it the wrong way it is easily corrected...

Seems to be a good thread to ask this question, about the size of transaction fees.
I click for these microcoins because someday they might be worth a bunch.
If I'm also mining, and cashing out a few bitcoins at a time, should I be running two separate wallets to avoid transactions fees, were I to buy $20 Amazon gift cards for example?
I think the obvious answer is yes, but I've searched a bit and can't see why...
I don't know enough to explain why, but yes I think it is best to collect, and let age, very small payments separately from funds you intend on using on a daily basis, in order to avoid larger fees. |

May as well update the OP, bitcoinaddict isnt getting advertisers to come through on promises so we are going to have to reduce payout or put the site on hold until we finish setting up our mining project. The whole point of the site is for it to pay for itself and make payouts based on income. So if you have some referral links or something you would like to setup please email us on the site so we can get some ads going to keep payouts coming. The site payout for now is .0001 and it may go down further if we cant get more paying advertisers going. Sorry guys.
Thanks for the update. I removed the mention of the size of the payout from the OP. |

Most people are familiar with foundations of this sort and even if a small minority may take it the wrong way it is easily corrected
with a few words displayed on their site and in their literature. Part of the reason for its creation is to inform the ignorant after all.
The paranoid hyperbole here gets more ridiculous as it is repeated over and over again by the same people. They have stated they
recognize your concerns and will move forward with that in mind. What more do you want to assuage your fear?
In the same way the foundation shouldn't try to impose its will on Bitcoin, and it is unlikely to ever have that power, neither should
this foundation have to bend to the will of a few overly vocal zealots.

All these sites are great! Thanks for the listing!
You're welcome! --- Bitcrate still empty... |

Trying the places.
Just to put them into perspective.
coinad.com - have to visit about 10 times to earn a penny
daily bitcoins, have to visit 20 times to get a penny unless you happen to get lucky and hit a bigger payout... not likely
bitcrate is empty, has been for a few days now, results vary when it does happen to have coin
bitcoin addict, need to visit about 7 times to make a penny
freebtc.com about 8 times to make a penny
bitcoiner.net about 50 times to make a penny.. wow gonna git rich here eh?
bunnyrun, if you win 3 times if not 20 times to make a penny
bitconis.so doesn't make a difference it seems to be always out of money when I won
daily free scratch off, it varies, so far it seems when you do win its a penny or so
Now some people may get pissed at me saying im an asshole etc for posting these stats but I believe in full disclosure.
Not at all, I for one appreciate the stats.  I know we all want bitcoins but take a look at how much you really want them... some of these sites you just have to ask.... is it really worth it???
Just sayin.
Aaron
oh and PS. im not gonna pimp the two sites I posted earlier but seem to get you a good penny a day or more..... again... just sayin.
Here is what I said on this subject earlier this year: A reply I made in another thread about the complaint that free bitcoin sites, like the ones listed here, are not worth it... what good are they if one only gets very very small amounts that is not worth the time... etc. --- Well no one, I hope, is suggesting that this is a viable source of income which will allow one to give up their regular job.  ( then again, who knows what 0.0053 BTC might be worth several years from now. ) When I first found out about Bitcoin I wanted to try it out as soon as possible; I am sure many other newbies are the same. Signing up to some exchange or using some of the other methods for buying bitcoins can be a hassle, and can have fees higher than someone just wanting to try things out would like. So using these few free bitcoins sites can be a good way of trying things out... it is exciting to get that first payment to ones wallet... and if other newbies are like me they will be just as excited to gather enough together to send them off to a friend or a worthy charity or the like, in order to try sending as well as receiving. And getting new users excited about Bitcoin and getting them using it right away can only be good for Bitcoin as a whole. |

Just tried the bitcoin.so and won but was told insufficient funds.
Does this mean that I will be put in a queue for payout or I won, but really lost since there is no money?
Aaron
I am pretty sure it is the latter. They do show the wallet balance right above the dice... currently: "There are 0 Bitcoins" |

The fact is I want Satoshi back. He made this thing and I want him to represent it.
I thought you were against having a single person, or small elitist group, representing and acting as an authority over Bitcoin and OUR money? |

One more, hope a bit of self advertising is ok where relevant. http://btcfaucet.com/Only meant to give BTC for actual beginners though, and not daily. More restrictions apply than with other faucet sites (no proxies allowed) but pays 0.003 for Google and 0.003 for Facebook connect (0.006 total). Please only use this is you really're really just starting off. I'm hoping this will help a lot of people a bunch, and not a bunch of people a lot :-) Cheers! Is this an ongoing thing or a limited time offer? |

Where do I sign up to become President of this 'foundation' ?
Probably become an established member of it and get the others to vote for you. I don't know what I find more annoying, that certain things could have been avoided if the bitcoin foundation already existed (for example the outcome of the bitcoinca dilemma) or the reaction of the naysayers. All I see are rants and sarcastic statements. Gavin already has control over the code, the other board members control over their respected companies, now they form a coalition and enable you to take part of that control and you are complaining? I rather overthrow this control than go through the effort to gain its approval. Once I have the means, I will be tearing this shit apart through whatever is necessary. I bet that evil cadre of core developers trembles and quakes every time you threaten them like this. I rather reign in hell than serve in heaven.
Quoting Satan now? lol Did you really read Milton or did you get that from reruns of the original Star Trek series? I am just wondering if you identify with a fallen angel or with a eugenically superior breed of man. |

I don't see you being so hostile towards everyone on the internet who has social app connect - so what makes me so special?
You feel you have earned the same level of trust as Gavin Andresen have you? lol And hostile? Some would rather see it as valuable feedback to use in improving their business. You want to see hostility then wait until someone loses some of their money because of the lack of due care and attention in developing your site. But then you can just blame them instead of learning how to serve your customers better... just another dumbass who doesn't know how to use a password.  |
