Stats in US about the harms of slavery are also traditionally biased, so you can reduce the other amount to half or even quarter, too (source - same as yours)

I gave away my entire stack of paper wallets, each one with a gift, of course Also gave away so much advice, my throat was hoarse for the next two days from talking. Speaking of which, I need to poke that horse charity I've been meaning to convince since last summer...

It took them quite some time, but they finally got it set up http://www.dolfilms.org/

I'm learning more and more about this awesome wallet software, and have been using it as my main wallet way before I joined this team (I think I started using it as my main back in August?). This thing is like bitcoin: fairly basic at fist glance (just digital cash), but has tons of features when you start digging into it. And the team is working on some really exciting new features that we'll announce in the near future. Also, I'll be creating some instructional videos about the wallet's more advanced functions over the next few weeks, but in the mean time, feel free to ask me any questions (I'm even happy to answer ones that aren't related to Mycelium  )

Oh crap, I have 52 pages to read in just a few days :\

And yet another request:


When asked when they added bitcoin donations to their site, and how they have heard about it, they followed up with


FYI, I know this charity very well, since they are just a few blocks away from Anthrocon, the biggest furry convention in the world, and are very often frequented and heavily supported by furries during the convention. So vetting isn't really an issue, as I can completely vouch for them (having visited them myself), but they should still be reviewed as a matter of consistency (and we need to make a decision on whether they qualify despite already deciding to accept it themselves).

Thanks. Yeah, I was thinking about that, too, but Bitcoin100 already has the name recognition and marketing (I've heard a few people say they use it for a list of Bitcoin charities), so I think it ma be better to keep us as such a resource, and just rework how we list things. Maybe a separate page for charities we have contacted or are considering, and a main page that lists all charities that accept Bitcoin, with the ones we sponsored having some big emblem, like "Bitcoin100 Approved and Funded" on a big brown-orange badge instead of the 100% text, with a link to the TX when you click on it.

Any estimates on possible pricing? BFL is coming out with a rather impressive chalenger, though it will be rather pricey...

You mean like at the end of Fight Club?

Karma is just a law. And you know what they say about rules, right?  I have first hand experience of breaking the law of karma. So 

According to Moe (the guy running it), videos were recorded for each day as single 12 hour blocks. They will need to be split up before they get uploaded.

This was definitely one of the best conferences I've been to. Excellent atmosphere, and a nice mix of entrepreneurs, developers, and business types, without too much emphasis on just business marketing. The parties were great, too, though my throat is still sore from all the screaming over the noise. Can't wait for the next one! Where will you take us to this time Moe?

What? Since when? Where am I? What's going on? Wow, I must have REALLY partied hard at the Miami Conference  


I didn't see anything about "common sense" in the contract. I reserve the right to use such a thing very sparingly.

Bring on the hoards of questioning newbies and scathing trolls, for I am ready to battle!!!

He, I'm back from Miami! Was quite busy there, and am still somewhat exhausted from my "vacation." One of the two most interesting things I've found out at the convention is that there are TWO David Baileys out there, one from Alabama, USA, and the other from England; both are bitcoiners. Anyway, back to work.

First, some thanks:


Then some more requests


I'll reply with the usual spiel. I guess for now check whether they qualify.


I also got the following:

They are not qualified, since they have been receiving bitcoin for a while, but they were wondering if we could add their site to our list. They asked if they could at least get listed on our site as a list of charities that accept bitcoin, since apparently our list is used as a source of places to donate to. I think we can accommodate them. Edd, can you add peacegeeks.org as a charity, with a note reading "disqualified: already accepting" to our site? When I have time, I'll have to go through the list and fix up the status messages a bit, since many of the charities on our list don't accept btc, and apparently don't plan to.

One last bit of midnight oil burning before I pack to leave for Miami


The above is actually a summary of two e-mails (first and second paragraph were separate), and after the first e-mail I mentioned that Bitcoin100 doesn't really reward bitcoiners for being fans of bitcoin, but after the second, I'm not entirely sure how to go on this one, since he's not the owner of the charity. Comments/feedback?

Well hot damn. I feel pretty stupid about this one, too, since I vaguely remember reading that post. I say we chuck this one up to a language barrier (entirely our fault, because our German SUCKS!) and the donation is on it's way: https://blockchain.info/tx/d0567d0c67c0c0fe6bcd105d654d0f6e4e956413e5da3656ca4473321b2fe909

Hope to see this thing continue after I come back from my trip to the bitcoin conference in Miamie

Still waiting for this donor: https://blockchain.info/tx/0a0108495ac270663e83fc27a71b6a471120804e9ecee379639cc78b407a4970

Just FYI, I was going to inquire about ording 4 of them with Sonic characters on them, but got too distracted and lost track of this thread. Oh well. Still thinking what I could possibly sell later. Alas, coming from a family situation similar to the OP's and Phinn's (family came to this county when I was 10, with only $300 to our name), I don't have a lot of valuables or heirlooms in my posession. If you don't count my Sonic the Hedgehog collection, likely worth tens of thousands of dollars...

Oh god, not that! >.<
