1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: An AUDIOBOOK of the Bitcoin Whitepaper narrated by the who's who of the industry on: March 25, 2019, 01:39:34 PM
From the title of the thread I thought that you are going to make an audio version of the original bitcoin whitepaper. And that could be quite good because most of the users in this forum have no idea about what Satoshi has done and what he wanted to do.
But what you are going to do something different and I'm sure that you won't even contact 13 of the most powerful crypto influencers. Anyway, the Idea seems bad.


Yes, Contacting and having thirteen of the most important figures in the crypto sphere collaborate is a major ask!  But something tells me they'd be happy to do it.

btw issuing your own stuff only as an audiobook seems bad, if you succeed then make a printed version.
Anyway, you better just read the original bitcoin whitepaper on a microphone. That would be easier and useful at the same time.


Maybe a youtube video of them briefly introducing themselves and then reading a chapter each, with the associated chapter shown on the video in text.

What would be even more amazing is if they agreed to be filmed reading it and using the picture in picture plugin.

However this works, I think it works and can be very positive.

Aren't they at war with each other? Well, I hope that you could convince them to have a talk with you. Andreas Antonopoulos anyone?

Yes, they are which is why this would be such an amazing achievement.

Yes, Andreas Andreas Antonopoulos is a shoo-in so I've added him to the list  Smiley

Hi, Bitcointalk.org! BTC


This is my first ever post here.  

Hopefully, it's not a complete waste of your time.  (I will most likely also post this on Reddit unless I get no feedback and this is deemed a silly idea.  Of course, I think this is a great idea!).

OK.


Sometimes I'm disappointed by the narky tribalism in the crypto-sphere and the potential negative effects this might have on mass adoption.  So many wars! Embarrassed  My solution is a simple and "fun" show of solidarity that will harness the idealism of the famous Satoshi Nakamoto; the father of all crypto. Smiley

I endeavor to select some of the most important and/or relevant AND even "controversial" crypto-sphere personalities to help me produce an audio-book youtube video of the BITCOIN WHITE-PAPER. Once the list is decided upon, I will contact the nominated people and ask them to contribute a chapter each.  Hopefully, they will be happy to be part of this experiment.  There are twelve chapters of the white paper plus the abstract beginning.  That's thirteen participants.

The narrated youtube production should serve as a "symbolic show of unity".  It will be an important statement to the wider community and for the greater world. Mass adoption really is coming.  The only question is WHEN?

That's enough waffling from me  Grin


I haven't yet considered my complete list, so please allow me to shoot from the hip before I revisit this post.  In the meantime over to you guys...

Andreas M. Antonopoulos
Vitalik Buterin
Charlie Lee
Roger Ver
Craig Wright ??
CZ
Mcafee? HA! (I did say fun)
Elon Musk? (not necessarily a crypto-sphere person but very crypto friendly)
Bill Gates?  (see above)
.
.
.
Thirteen people.
