Hey everyone,
Wondering if there is any students out there!
Finished uni a year ago, but if there's one thing i learned, it's that clubs can spread the word about something fast. It would be cool to see some Bitcoin Clubs starting around campuses... So many topics, Bitcoin innovation, mining, development, trading, anything really.
I would love to help anyone with preparation, flyer design or perhaps considering putting packages together so students have a basis to start a club around bitcoin.
Anyone else think of anything like this or want to work on a project?

Bitcoin doesn't get the recognition that it deserves. Most people who are part of the Bitcoin community only see it as a way to get more fiat. The fiat is the end goal and Bitcoin is just a speculative means to achieve that. Well folks, Bitcoin was supposed to be more than that. It was supposed to be the first decentralized currency and payment network outside the control of centralized banks and governments. But the people don't care about that. They just care about the dollar bills. Unfortunately, I admit I fit in this category too. We have betrayed Satoshi.  Don't cry. I believe somewhere he's still involved and thrilled with its progression. I mean, for the short time, a completely new technology that acts as a currency, i think we're doing great.  |

The price is way too inflated for something like this. Lower it and you might get interest  Read my notes... If you don't have budget, go away and never look back. Prices are fixed. Why be rude to your customers. Every time you post, you get the same response. You're price gouging like a mother fucker and nobody wants to buy them. Don't tell people not to discuss is a discussion board, it's dumb. |

I think this product looks like a great idea, you might just need to find a way to lower the price of the product while maintaining a fair profit. In honor of the Christmas holidays can make a 10% discount. =D Awesome! Working on bitcoinshopping.center will definitely get you added |

Been in to bitcoin for about year and a little, but believe in the technology, not a holder yet... Everytime they get purchased for savings I find something new to purchase or another place to put them, but that's alright. As long as we don't goto the moon without me!

So this'll be a mix bag of different concepts and ideas. Take it for what it is and comment if you agree/disagree. But please provide some actual arguments for your opinions.
First up is decentralisation. Bitcoin may never go mainstream in the way say computers or the Internet have.
When it comes to computers you got the big names creating the hardware and also the big names creating the software. It's all very centralized and "safe" for the consumer.
It's the same thing with the Internet. Think of two sites you think represents or are very important to the mainstream. If you ask me I'd say Google and FB. Well both are centralized. Private companies and running these brands and services. Do most people seem to care about this when sharing their info Online? No. They only care for the value they provide.
Consider the Bitcoin bowl. Merchants (which are centralized) such as Bitpay will construct services around Bitcoin. This will inevitably advertise Bitcoin's technology in the same fashion as Dell promotes "lalala core processsor" this new" LED display". Bitcoin will get marketing from the businesses that adopt it. Right now, I am seeing a whole bunch of merchant acceptance without involvement, meaning lots of merchants are throwing up "bitcoin accepted" signs, but they are not putting in the leg work to educate customers, and why should they if it's going to cost alot with no return. In order to reap rewards for both sides of the picture, merchants need to use bitcoin as a strategy, not a promotion. Educate customers, find a place in their evoked set or word of mouth. I am strong on the fact that if you can excite your customers about bitcoin, your brand will be mentioned when they tell their friends... right now it's just a theory but there has to be some sort of grounding, and will be doing research in january to test. Likewise, a person who has had a smooth bitcoin transaction with you in the past, I believe, will come back for more business when faced with no alternatives using bitcoin, so if your brand is the only one in the industry utilizing these payments you should see a few additional sales. With that said it all lies in the marketing and how you creatively communicate bitcoin to the customer. Everyone knows merchants save 2.9% here and there, now why is a consumer going to stop using cash ad convert to bitcoin... This queston to me is an industry specific answer.... ONline poker is what originally got me here, and it's a huge benefit to use bitcoin. This is going to be different from a grocery store, to a movie rental place, to a restraunt. So right now i really think it lies within merchants to not only accept bitcoin, but promote it, sell with it, educate their customers and monitor the results. PErhaps loyalty will rise? Maybe bitcoin can be used as a way to discount upsales? There's a place, we're in the grey area. I think big things are coming this year. Happy holidays. |

please anyone from Xapo team let us know of any updates for USA customers thanks
We're doing everything we can, however regulations are currently preventing us from sending cards to an address in USA. Having said that, you could have one shipped to an address outside of the USA, and use it within the USA. We even have cards denominated in USD, so you wouldn't pay any fee associated with foreign transactions despite receiving the card outside of the USA. You guys have a fantastic product. If your team needs any help with customer service or marketing let us know, would be more than happy to do what we can to help! |

Anyway, the way I do it is to figure out which aspect of BTC appeals to the person Im talking to at the time and just mention that side only to them first. One bread crumb at a time to lead them along.
I smell a marketing education =) ha, i wish. would make my life a lot easier!  Haha, not missing much, 5 years of telling you to think differently, but teaching you to think the same as everyone else in the room. Happy holidays |
