What do you guys make of this ?

http://coinlab.com/status

Is it professional ?


Here's an excerpt:
Quote
Bitcoiners have, on average, lost more money due to technology difficulties, frozen / lost banking relationships and shady characters like pirateat40 than due to any part of Bitcoin's fundamental economics. I hate this fact, passionately. I have a vision in which high quality service and technology and ethics can be delivered to you, me, my kids, everyone who has a stake in Bitcoin.

It is my goal for CoinLab that we provide fundamental infrastructure to minimize these risks for everyone in our space, and I do mean everyone; from those on the Bitcoin Forums who dislike and distrust me personally, to the mom and pop cupcake makers in San Francisco, to my daughter who recently sold some knit products for .01BTC.

 Roll Eyes

i spot the same personal cues you are hinting at. also the pirateat40 reference is a fracking internet handle, so i got real turned off at that point in terms of quality of release. i don't really care much for coinlab as a business entity.

edit: those are all non-professional opinions Smiley i'm new here.

I feel like it will take an eternity to re-earn the bitcoins I lost in coinlab shares. No offense, guys @ coinlab. pay me. I only mine on your pool by accident at this point - all of my other pools have failed over at that point. I should've never agreed to 95% and a fiat denominated PPS for redeem points as some type of "reward" for my dedication. In retrospect, that's insanity.

I'm up for helping where I can, havnt got much in the way of funds tho.



That's the case for most of us here I guess.

But there's also a number of people with significant funds around so getting venture capital for good ideas should never be a problem.

It's about getting these ideas across and making the necessary contacts.

There's a lot of people I could be selling Bitcoins to. The primary obstacle to it being that I'm not invested enough in it personally to be really motivated to do so.

It's a little hard to sell a product you don't have yourself.

I like the idea of selling anonymous ATMs or debit cards to nightclubs or introducing a bigger clientele to using Bitcoins, which I have done successfully on a small scale.

So I'm really looking to get on the Bitcoin payroll somehow.

73  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [ANN] FIRST Feature-length Documentary on Bitcoin, 100% BITCOIN FUNDED! on: March 08, 2013, 08:26:21 PM
Fade in, it's raining.
A young man is awakened by an alert in the middle of the night on his ipad9. He opens the alert finding the attached letter sent from his father, a decade ago in the past.
Prologue: http://jcph.am/2013/03/08/a-letter-to-my-son/
And so the story begins...
Cue title music.
Change timeline. back to 2008, pan in, we meet Satoshi Nakamoto he's pening the finishing touches on http://www.mail-archive.com/cryptography@metzdowd.com/msg09959.html
He presses enter.
A whirlwhind of development. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OztVYTS_Ei8
Blah blah.
bitcoin.
24 months+ of wild market stories.
Now we're here in 2013. Now what?

a documentary tbh to me sounds boring but I applaud the concept. Stories woven with fact into film make better entertainment.

Kutcher is a good contact to make, based on his BitPay investment exposure.

Edit: I'm sort of just throwing ideas & these things do not necessarily go together, but i think the target should be just as much truthiness as actual truth in a documentary sense. I've been awake for a long time. I really like the idea.
