I like this straight up thing, should be at 100k in a day or 2 at this rate. See you guys in Vegas. |

I remember the good old days not long ago when all we talked about was where to have the 100k party and how it would go down. Now its just Jews, Muslims, Pasta cults and such.  If nobody wants to talk 100k party with me anymore than lets start talking 50k party or 1000k party. 1000k party is gonna be the big one anyways. I dont want to hear any talk of moving the party planning discussion somewhere private. The best thing about a great party is rubbing it in the face of everyone who cant come ffs!!! The greatest purpose the WO can ever achieve for humanity is to plan and execute Bitcoin price parties, there is no nobler cause.  So back to the topic. Where to hold 1000k party and what fun things to do? ? ? At that price we can hold it literally anywhere we want. Some ideas In one of The Pyramids In the torch of the Statue of Liberty In Big Ben On the Moon Roach’s house (He’ll hate it but don’t think he could turn down the cash) Have a merit kind sir. These are great ideas, and I especially like having a party in Roach's house We can chip in and do a home makeover for him in return and create a Bitcoin themed luxury home for him to live in. A little dust out of each of our wallets should fund this with ease. He will have to bow to us all and kiss our trezors though first, and then renounce silver and proclaim Bitcoin as his true lord and savior. |

I dont like posting as much when I am short term bearish/long term uberbullish, and of course its a bit of a bummer we arent discussing 100k party plans here anymore, but a few thoughts....... In the (what I see as more an more likely each day) event that we revisit the 4800-5500 range, it will be imo the last great opportunity for many years to grab more cheap coins before an epic 20x or higher bull run. 2015 blessed us with two minibubbles and I believe 2019 will just bless us with one larger minibubble. I call it a blessing bc it gets people buzzing about Bitcoin as it rises and as it falls to a higher low it quickly gives the ones who missed out another shot at cheap coins. I am hoarding almost all fiat income at the moment and living as frugally as possible to pounce on such an opportunity if it happens this summer. If we don't get this retrace in the next few months I will just buy coins at whatever the price is at the time. So even though we imo are likely in the midst of a major retrace, we are still...................

Lambie I'd love to come to Vegas, but I must insist that we have a serious moment. Perhaps the address at the dinner could be given by that foremost bitcoin expert Ms Izabella Kaminska. I believe you know her well enough to invite her?
I hope you come to the Vegas party. Sorry, Lambo Slayer, this was just a joke really. I can't get in to the US because of a youthful indiscretion. Location aside, sadly I largely agree with Bob, not because I claim to be of the same ... girth as him, but still because of opsec reasons. Despite appearances I am very wary and hard to convince, and there are tons of things I just don't do irl. So we'll see. I know you all could care less but if the party takes place in the U.S. I could not attend. I was a green card holder but used my regular (foreign) passport when entering the U.S. in 2003. They were about to throw me in jail for a couple of years because of this but was deported instead with life long forbidden re-entry. kind of sucks because half my family lives in the U.S. I understand tough that Vegas makes sense. Sorry to hear that! This is however why Im proposing multiple parties to solve all our problems. We could space them out a bit so some people could attend both. |

but I would guess at least 60-80 with an average of 2 guests each so that would mean at least 210 people.
And average of 2 guests seems a bit too much. Most guys have only one GF/wife. So maybe 1 guest per old hat... One does not simply bring a gf/wife to a strip club. The smart ones would leave them at home  You don't bring sand to a beach. You don’t bring beer to Octoberfest Honestly I would hope everyone at 100k would have left their wife or GF, or at the least gotten her to agree to threesomes upon request and to accept that monogamy for her man was a thing of the past. You all remember the Seinfeld episode where the guy became a doctor and left Elaine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woJBoao4EUUGuest would be expected to be groupie chicks or maybe a friend who you converted from nocoiner slavery and wagecuckery and you wanted them to celebrate with you bc while not on WO they were your HodleHomie all along. A little shocked you guys might think I was condoning bringing sand to the beach. Perhaps we should make it a no GF/wife allowed party...... Im sorta kidding, but not really though |

Hi Lambie -
Multi-paties and all are fine, no problem with that. However, whether it's one or many parties - organising anything within a week or so of breaking an arbitrary figure in price is at the very least difficult. Just booking things up and people dropping everything to book a flight to get there means it is tough to see how it would work.
Fixing a date (based on Halvening, say?) and finding out well in advance how many takers there are makes it more feasible to set up, I would have thought. Shoot me down, by all means - but people have lives and need to plan in advance - even decent hotels, restaurants etc are best booked in advance, surely... Not many people will put a deposit down for a party on an unknown future date. So how would you know numbers in order to book anything?
Also, for me and maybe I am not alone (I have no idea) I am not really up for hookers and blow. Never have been for the former, have weaned myself off the latter... Call me a party pooper, if you like, but don't get me wrong; I do like the the idea of a party and a chance to meet people I have share the ups and downs with for years. I also know some will head for the hookers and blow - and good luck to them, if they do - but I hope that is not all it is about. If there was a choice, I would be opting for beers and a chat.
Lastly, I might also like to explore a city and meet new friends with my partner in town with me. I may be alone in having this as a preference of course - but if it raises eyebrows to suggest this, I will just have to wait and hear tales of what I missed out on.
Edit: Some of this answered above while I was typing.
In many cities this could be a problem, but in Vegas I can promise you that booking the restaurant for 25 people, nightclub for 75 people or less, stripclub 75 people or less, 1 stretch limo, and brothel for 25 people or less with a weeks notice would be eezy peezy lemon breezy. A week is also plenty of time to get a fairly cheap plane ticket and hotel rooms are always abundant and inexpensive relative to quality in Vegas, even on zero days notice. Saturday is actually a better day since some will still have jobs and need to work Friday so consider this an amendment to my proposal. Also remember in my post no one but the host would have to put down a deposit for anything. As a Vegas host Im willing to pay in advance out of my pocket for the limo, VIP table and bottle deposits(the will likely just want to put a hold on a credit card at the most, if anything). The restaurant wont need a deposit for a party of 25, the stripclub wont need a deposit, and the brothel will not need a deposit. Multiple hosts is also to help with the fact that some will want a more wholesome party. I would never call you a party pooper for having different tastes. Also remember people can stay longer than a night and as WO members meet they can make separate plans to do things on sunday monday or however long they stay in town. My party structure proposal did have 4 events and only the last 2 were of the non wholesome variety, but certainly a host could make a party with lots of wholesome events and completely avoid anything on the leaning towards debauchery. What if we hold multiple party over the world, each one sporting a particular theme? e.g. (fist ideas) - Las Vegas: Lambie Style "wild party": hookers, strippers and raw meat.
- Maundays Bay, Anguilla: Laid back beach party Mic's Style, drinks, chatter and friendship in a beautiful landscape.
- Paris: Refined and classy party, tuxedos, gowns and white gloves.
- Oxford: Knowledge Party: we use proceeds for the party to invite best lecturer and minds from all over the world to discuss about Bitcoin (jimmy Song, A Antonoupolous etc..)
- Nairobi/Maui/Lhasa (or whatever else in the world): Exploring/Adventure/Surfing/Safari/Hiking or whatever not bitcoin lateral activity. For someone now rich enough to afford a life relieving/soul enlightening experience.
The downside is that is that to gain traction it would be open also to guest/friends (maybe hatter could sport a sort of VIP treatment) but it would be nice to have each one of use finding their sweet spot. Yes, i like this, the more parties the better. Having more parties increases chances of success. Having one big clusterfuck party means something will happen to fuck it up and we get zero parties. |

Im going into hodlsleep, ive stayed up way too late with the party discussion  |

As im looking a bit on that 1k party thread yes, it seems they set the bar high and had to cancel due to lack of funds and logistical difficulties booking venues for large groups.
We wont have those problems with my proposal bc no funds need to be raised and we are not really booking venues, just going to massive venues that already churn tons of people through the doors each night and we will just fit in to the nightlife.
They seem to have had plenty of people ready and willing to go, just the plans were too big and grandiose so it failed to reach critical mass.
My plan can scale down to 1 person, kinda like Bitcoin only needs one person to keep it going.

Interesting. I like this idea as well and think they would be compliments, not substitutes. Bc yes mad celebration is exactly what Im suggesting. The 100k party is by far the biggest event talked about ever since I started following the thread in early 2014. It seems criminal to not attempt to honor it. You're absolutely right, it will be a huge milestone - one we will all want to celebrate. Of course! The WO Celebration party sounds great and also something that afaik was just breathed into life by you and worth pursuing, but not at the expense of the 100k legend for sure imo The ideas are not mutually exclusive. It was just I thought there could be more certainty about the Halvening date. It's actually because I really want to see the party actually happen - not because I don't want to celebrate, but precisely because I do. One question: What price do you expect to see one year after the Halvening? That is - whether it's $50K or $350K - do you think it would be worth a party? 30 to 50k and yes certainly worth a party. |

I guess it was canceled because of economic reasons. if you calculate with a price of 1k per Bitcoin the price should stay above 1k if you have to pay the costs of the event afterwards. in fall 2013 it was a short spike above 1k and then the price collapsed again. I expect the same if the price will go above 100k because a lot of hodlers will then cash out.
Ok Ty for that info. My proposal will avoid this pitfall bc as I said, its flexible enough for someone to spend between $500 and 10k or more with no commitments. So if price drops 30 percent in the few weeks prior, then people can just spend 30 percent less or whatever they want. So easy not to collect money far in advance and then not have to worry about what happens to the funds and what the price is to possibly give out refunds. ok, but then you should keep the party exclusive. no more than 50 to 60 people in my opinion. EDIT: just a Hat Gang party with no Gang Bang.  (sorry for the flat joke!) LOL, ok "no 2 in the pink an 1 in the stink". 75 max for nightclub and stripclub. WO hats only at dinner so 25 to 50 max. If someone does one in Europe for the other hats and then a non hat party for the rest of the peeps we should be good. The organization of this party can hardly fail, the only way it fails is if no one shows, but if 98 percent dont show its still good times. It has to be flexible imo bc if we make it an all or nothing deal we will end up canceling the whole thing bc not enough participation to make it work. |

U bring up good points. Typically the longer someone has to think about something imo the more likely they are to back out. This is why corporate America works so hard to push impulse buying on everyone and why they say count to ten when you are angry. I would have no problem doing this party with myself and my 2 guests if not one single Hat wants to come celebrate the new wealth. All it would cost me would be I pay for all the limo out of pocket which is fine, more leg room! Can someone fill me in on what led to the downfall of the 1k party, I didnt start following the thread till a few months after 1k. Also how much time would be necessary in your opinion to properly plan and not feel rushed. Are you talking 3 weeks, 2 months, maybe a little more detail on that would help me understand where you are coming from. I would think anything more than a few weeks after 100k and a lot of the thrill would be gone. Last one before we're kicked off the thread: I think an arbitrary price figure is the problem. May never get there / may hit it only fleetingly / crash right after / does not happen for three years - who knows? When I mentioned timing it within a set time from the Halvening, it seemed popular. No pressure, time to plan etc. And it is sure it will happen, so it can be booked. If you want a mad celebration for 100K - a spontaneous thing does seem to make sense. I guess I was thinking of a WO celebration party (likely to be when we've already done very nicely financially) but not really about price, so much as a party for the WO 'anyway' - and it could even turn into a regular thing. Anyone could organise a hookers and blow event to coincide with it, why not? At least we'd all know when the party was and that it would actually happen if enough people wanted to go. Time needed to organise a successful large event and actually attract enough people to make it work well? Months. Less than 12, probably more than 6. Interesting.

nice ideas guys but start small please. first of all you need money for a party. first question is: who is willing to pay with bitcoin for a party and how much. in 2013 it was 1 BTC and the money was locked. if you pay 0.1 BTC today it will be enough in 3 years for a 100k party. but again the money is locked. who is still on the list? EDIT: maybe someone should start a DAO "100kparty". In the proposal I laid out for Vegas no one but me would have to put up anything and even my out of pocket expense would be not a big deal for me at all. The less people that show the more glory for the ones that do. Worst case scenario its me and 2 friends. I promise you we will have a lot of fun and fill everyone in on the good times. ok sorry, I did not read it. but how then will you scale it? you should expect 100 to 500 people if the price will stay above 100k. EDIT: 220 paid 1 BTC and the money was locked until the event was canceled. + + + MORE THAN 220 RESERVATIONS + + +
Interesting. Do you know why they canceled. If 220 people pay and nobody wants to party, then perhaps the whole concept is doomed but i feel like there must be some explanation for what happened. The plan I had has a cap of 25 WO members with max 2 guest each. The way to scale it is other people can offer to host parties at other times in other cities since so many cant agree on US, Europe, or an island. The bigger the party, the more likely it is to fail imo. We must decentralize the parties I think Id be lucky to get 25 WO members saying they want to come to the vegas party, and if we got more, no problem, we drop it down to 1 guest each with up to 50 WO members. Over 50 WO members and I agree this party falls apart from logistical complexities. Taking 25 people to a restaurant in Vegas is easy even sitting at the same table. Taking 50 to a dinner is no problem, just will need multiple tables. Taking 75 to a nightclub is easier. Taking 75 to a strip club is easy also. All on short notice. Taking 25 to a brothel is easy and lets be real I doubt many will stick around for the brothel, but if we dont have enough whores we can always go family style on em. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5znpQLH8vEIf the worst thing that happens at our party is a whore shortage, then it will just add to the legend. |

EDIT: maybe someone should start a DAO "100kparty". "Can you Guys stop partying??" No just another thread for it! 100k party is about as on topic as it gets around here, no need for another thread just yet imo |
