Wow! Things are moving fast! Strong work all!
The only thing left is pulling a flag outta our ass in less than 48 hours, but Frank over at Reddit is on it. I PMed Jason King to see if there's anyway for him to lean a hand. We are so close! Under $300 USD now, so it looks like money won't be a problem: https://blockchain.info/address/1Gt1anYr6gEuiNgacFouhy4RUNQFH3YY9Y~TMIBITW The 15 BTC are there... Any new word on the flag fabrication/delivery status? Frank over at Reddit has a final design that he's going with and is planning on delivering it to Faysal. |

This is awesome. All thanks to Phin for setting this up!
Thanks, bud, and I truly enjoyed the challenge. Now, with all due respect, I'm having a very difficult time gettin' my head wrapped around the two different spellings of Faysal/Faycal. The French TV News at 1:12 has the spelling as Faysal: http://videos.tf1.fr/jt-we/2013/apres-le-pole-nord-il-part-a-la-conquete-du-pole-sud-8294890.html I'm sure that they would have taken the time to make sure his name is spelled correctly. All of Faysal's official pages spells his own name Faysal. Thorkil, in the original OP of the first South Pole thread spelled it Faysal, but later edited the entire OP to reflect a new spelling--Faycal--first time seen. Thorkil's FB page has the following: https://www.facebook.com/thvaergeFørste presseomtale for Sirius Money! Vi sponsorerer Faysal Hanneche, der drager på solo-ekspedition til Sydpolen den 5. november. Adventurer to make first ever bitcoin transaction from the South Pole
www.coindesk.com
Frenchman Faycal Hanneche may soon be the first person to make a bitcoin purchase from the South Pole. Assumingly, the last quote is almost an exact quote from the CoinDesk article: http://www.coindesk.com/adventurer-make-first-ever-bitcoin-transaction-south-pole/...Frenchman Faysal Hanneche may soon be the first person to make a digital currency purchase from the South Pole. Concerning the last quote, Richard Boase makes the same exact mistake on his FB page, of which there's no Faycal spelling in the CoinDesk article: https://www.facebook.com/richard.boaseThorkil claims that Faysal told him that he prefers the Faycal spelling. If that's the case, then why didn't Richard Boase use that spelling in the CoinDesk article, but somehow used it only once on his FB page. With the exception of the CoinDesk article, Faysal has not once publically mentioned Bitcoin on any of his official sites. Faysal needed to raise 60K euros for the expedition, but opt to allow a guy he just met, Thorkil, to control the Bitcoin donation wallet, reverting it back to him once he gets to Chile--if he survives. If he dies, the funds go to charity, according to Thorkil. Really! Not a single family member is even considered? Maybe it's a French thing. That said, again I apologize if I'm off base and totally off my rocker with this, but seriously, something is not adding up right in my head. Maybe it's the hole from rod. |

 I truly am perplex with why the spelling of Faysal's name was changed from the actual to Faycal and shown as such on a sticker that's going to be on his sled when all previous media, including himself, spells his name Faysal as shown on his official website. http://transantarctic.wordpress.com/Transantarctic Expedition

Just paid the winner, bits4books, his $50.00 via BTC. Still waiting for OnlyBTC and myrtle90 to reply to the PMs that I DIDN'T send them. I wonder what's their holdup.  I sure hope that I'm not being scammed by their silence.  |

Looks like the goal is essentially met (€2000).
A signed message from the donation address is the next step. (In retrospect ought to have been my first step and the first step of any bitcoin journalist).
Roger. I am in control of that. Does this work? Worked it out on Blockchain.info.

isnt there a cheaper and faster solution? why 2000 bucks for a flag? you can do it cheaper and have the same advertising-effect. and then: you can pay it with your own pocket.
True. But he is not a convinced bitcoiner like us - it seems to me that he might be one soon, though. He has only heard of the technology and that is what he charges for advertisement. Any way can you share with us as to when Faycal went from being a novice to an advance Bitcoiner, considering the following? http://www.coindesk.com/adventurer-make-first-ever-bitcoin-transaction-south-pole/When CoinDesk asked him about why he likes bitcoin, he responded:
“I had money in my bank account in France and needed it to pay for some extra equipment, transport, my flight tickets, etc… but my bank in France limited the money that I could withdraw because I’m abroad and because there are limits on my card here, for example, some people accept MasterCards, others don’t.
I found myself in a very bad situation and it would [have taken] ages to get a money transfer without getting stung by all the fees and the exchange rates. With bitcoin, I was able to fix it all in a few minutes and pay for all the things that I had to pay for in time without losing a lot of money in the process.
Efficient, cost saving and fast is all that I asked for and it was provided. What happened to me in Norway could happen anywhere in the world and so it gives more freedom and flexibility to my finances.” I noticed that the wallet https://blockchain.info/address/1Gt1anYr6gEuiNgacFouhy4RUNQFH3YY9Y?offset=0&filter=0 was created on the 28th, with you adding your 6.8 BTC donation as the second transaction yesterday, whereupon all the other transactions took place today thanks to yours, mine and Reddit's efforts. Does Faycal have control of this wallet, and of which wallet is he planning on purchasing the pizza with? A different wallet? Speaking of Faycal, why does he insist on spelling his name incorrectly?

I am pledging .5 BTC Compare the above with the OP of this thread now:Polar Expedition - Bitcoin Fundraising
Support Faycal Hanneche's mission to the South Pole
Faycal Hanneche is a French adventurer who completed a solo expedition to the North Pole this April and is going on a solo expedition to the South Pole this November. On his South Pole expedition, he will seek to promote Bitcoin in these three following ways: - 1. Carry Bitcoin sticker on sled.
- 2. Purchase Pizza when on the South Pole.
- 3. Plant Bitcoin flag on South Pole. (optional)
1) The sticker has been designed and printed and is now in Faycal's possession. My company Sirius Money has donated 6.8 BTC (EUR 1000) to Faycal's mission.  Design is by Mel Warn (whitetoo on this forum). 2) Faycal has 300 mBTC on a Bitcoin wallet on an Android device which has an internet connection via sattelite. His goal is to transfer 300 mBTC to me and then I will make the arrangement such that a pizza and a large coke is delivered to him at his hotel in Chile when he has returned to civilization. 3) I need help on this one if it is to succeed. Faycal is in Cape Town, South Africa at the moment and someone down there needs to get him a flag. If 15 BTC is collected, he has agreed to plant a flag on the South Pole. Faycal leaves from Cape Town on November 4th so someone needs to be very quick! He is staying on the Radisson Waterfront in Cape Town and the flag can be delivered there. But it has to be there by the afternoon on Monday November 4th. It can be delivered in the reception.On donations there is no refund if any or all the stated goals fail. This mission costs EUR 60'000 and much of that has been raised through other sponsors and these conditions apply to all the sponsors.
Donate to Faycal Hanneche on:
1Gt1anYr6gEuiNgacFouhy4RUNQFH3YY9Y
Background information:Coindesk article: http://www.coindesk.com/adventurer-make-first-ever-bitcoin-transaction-south-pole/The mission to the north Pole was about 400 km of walking with nothing but his skies to move him forward. The mission to the South Pole will be 3500 km and he will use kites and sails while on skies to carry him forward when the wind allows it. This is not possible on the North Pole since there are cracks and icy hills in the way all the time. If Faycal manages to go solo to the South Pole, he will become the first to visit both poles in one year on a solo mission.

How much time left?
And how much is needed?
Ill cover in 2 hours what ever else we need.
About $70 USD, but should be covered with plenty of time left. The deadline is not until about Monday afternoon local Cape Town, I'm guessing tomorrow evening ~US time. Somebody double check the time zones, please. The issue is still the flag, of which Frank over at Reddit is on top of and I guess he'll do his damndest Sunday/early Monday morning to get a flag made and delivered to the hotel prior to departure. We all have our finger crossed on this aspect. ~TMIBITW |

Wow! Things are moving fast! Strong work all!
The only thing left is pulling a flag outta our ass in less than 48 hours, but Frank over at Reddit is on it. I PMed Jason King to see if there's anyway for him to lean a hand. We are so close!

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1pr62j/adventurer_to_make_first_ever_bitcoin_transaction/Frank, over at Reddit, is seeking a flag design and help with options to make sure this comes to fruition. If he's able to pull this off, I commit to sending him $50 USD via BTC for his efforts, even though he's expressed that he can handle the cost. He's located in Capt Town, so logistics is no longer a concern. Any help from the community is welcome in this regard. Please head on over to Reddit and give Frank a hand. ~TMIBITW

Currently, ~$700 USD short but climbing: https://blockchain.info/address/1Gt1anYr6gEuiNgacFouhy4RUNQFH3YY9YOnly TMIBITW, of Lithuanian descent, can get a Frenchman Bitcoiner a Bitcoin Flag that he forgot to pack to his hotel in Cape Town in less than 48 hours, supplied by another Cape Townian(?) (a fellow Bitcoiner) so that it can be planted at the South Pole, whereupon an Italian pizza will be ordered using his smartphone, probably made in China, via bitcoins, a P2P currency, so that he can enjoy eating it once he's back to civilization in Chile ~40 days later of his 80 day trek. ~TMIBITW |

I have relayed the information that I can. This is out of my hands now and up to the community. Flag can be carried to the South Pole provided that it is delivered in the reception of the hotel RADISSON BLU HOTEL WATERFRONT, CAPE TOWN: http://www.radissonblu.com/hotel-capetown before Monday evening, November 4th. And provided that Faycal survives and that this mission is a success. Survival! When did this enter the equation? Seriously, we have it from here and will do our best to accomplish the task at hand.

I see no problem with the required funds being raised, ergo we need to concentrate on getting a Bitcoin flag in his hands ASAP.
Any suggestions? If there's an appropriate flag available, I will pay all shipping cost to make sure it gets there in time.
[–]frankros 3 points 2 hours ago*
I live in Cape Town and will print a flag for the man and bring it to him. Just give me a design and size/specifications and I can go ask around for quotes etc. EDIT : Those who have been to Cape Town will know that NOTHING happens on Sundays, but I will be on it first thing Monday morning keep you guys updated.
[–]Sword_Smith 1 point 27 minutes ago
It needs to be delivered at this hotel: http://www.radissonblu.com/hotel-capetown
in the reception before the evening of Monday the 4th.
[–]frankros 2 points 22 minutes ago
I can definitely deliver it, no problem. The question is how to print a flag so quickly. I'll go to a mall tomorrow morning and ask around. If all else fails, I will make one by hand with some arts and crafts material...fuck it.
[–]Sword_Smith 1 point 16 minutes ago
That is amazing! Maybe you could update the original Bitcoin thread with your offer and any information? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=317249.0

I never bothered to sign up to bitcointalk...I just lurk. But feel free to update them. Once I have more info on the flag. I'll mail the guy and organise when to bring it to him. In the mean time, please send me any designs.
[–]PhinnaeusGage 1 point 50 seconds ago
I can relay any progress here to BT, Frank. Check this out: http://www.fahnenfleck.co.za/
Please let me know if you need reimbursed for ANY expenses on this quest. Followup: frankros 1 point 1 minute ago
thanks. They will not be open on Sundays (it's almost midnight on Saturday here) but the malls around here have to be open on Sundays, so I'll try them first. I'm not sure what material they will have available but it's probably going to be T-shirt quality. The rings, I'll have to try and fix on it myself.
Any ideas of designs will be very helpful
If the expenses are not insane, I will be happy to pay for them myself, no worries.

The above task may be an impossibility, unless... http://www.fahnenfleck.co.za/Our short turnaround time and wide range of specified products and services means that you get exceptional service and quality from an all-inclusive package.
Need to know anything more? Talk to us about providing you with high-quality, appropriate and effective visual branding solutions. The other option is having Jason King of Sean's Outpost embroidery a flag, a task he's up and and would donate, confirmed after speaking with him over the phone. Although having it delivery to Cape Town by Monday afternoon is an impossibility, I suggested having it delivery to a base camp on Antarctica that Faycal may be stopping off at on his trek to the South Pole. Regular mail service to camps is available this time of the year, so there would be no problem with having a flag awaiting his arrival. I'm sure he mapped out the expedition so that he wouldn't be carrying ALL his supplies from the get-go, stopping at at least one base camp in route. Sword Smith would have to verify if, or if not, that's the case. ~TMIBITW |

No it wouldn't! Jason King of Sean's Outpost does it. I've seen his work in Atlanta, and it looks pretty damn good. ~TMIBITW |

Regarding this Just had a Skype call with Amy and Pradeep of the Primate Education Network. Their fiscal sponsor http://trustforconservationinnovation.org/ does the donation receiving and processing for them, and handles quite a few charities. Amy and Pradeep want to try to convince their sponsor to accept bitcoins, but mostly had some questions regarding legal issues and regulatory stuff. Just got an update today: Pradeep S.
Hi Dmitry!
I have good news! Our organization's fiscal sponsor (for whom you answered all those questions) has finally approved of using Bitcoin as an experiment. We're signing up for coinbase on Monday most likely and enabling contributions soon thereafter.
Thank you for your time and continuous support.
Despite the delay, I hope we still have the opportunity to seek your contribution. Please let us know. Thanks again for everything.
So, looks like we'll be sending out another donation soon  Great! It'll give edd something to do. |
