[KARM] Do you want to be a Karmillionaire without mining or investing?

[theomoplatapus]

This is a crazy idea that involves the non-computer world, and its possible no one will follow through with it, but I thought I'd give it a shot anyway.  I believe mining or investing shouldn't be the only way to obtain Karmacoin.  So I'm offering 1 million KARM to the first person who is willing to perform an act of community service.  This can be serving at a soup kitchen, putting in work at an animal shelter, doing habitat for humanity if you're in the US, or even doing something nice for a homeless person (not just giving him money).  It must be voluntary though, sorry people in service of your respective state authority.  I want to see some good deeds!  What you need to do is have some of this recorded on video which must include you holding up your qr code for your address and of course a shoutout to karmacoin!

I'm willing to donate 1 million karma myself and am looking for other holders to match my offer.  And of course I'm looking for some real good deeds.  Don't be afraid to go above and beyond!

nice idea, would be hard to stop people taking advantage of your kindness though, a lot of people will just pretend they have done the deed you ask, need some kind of proof, in my opinion, maybe a picture of them volunteering and an email from the place they are volunteering at.

Well I am asking for a video of them actually doing it.  If they're there and doing it, hopefully they'll decide to stick around and actually do the work and not make it like a Mitt Romney media event where he just cleans an already clean dish for the camera and leaves.

I do like your idea, just hate people who pretend to do things just to get a handout.

Great idea for Karma!

How long does it need to be?

Long enough to convince me you're doing 1 million karma worth of good deed

This type of deed would be great to see and it wouldn't cost anything, just involves getting rid of stuff you don't need.  Also I'm not expecting that high of a production value or anything because we're not youtube celebs obviously.

I really like this idea and I think it would be wonderful to actually live by the KARM value of "Doing good is good".  People would definitely have to provide evidence.  This is kinda like the crypto version of what GiveBackFilms do on youtube ^^ http://youtu.be/G65z8p1YNhw

That's actually exactly what I'm going for.  I feel like it would bring great publicity to cryptocurrencies as well.

I give my time to the Chinese dance Bootcamp peeps to teach them some English before we all start to dance and they really appreciate it because I get them out of their shyness but I don't know if this would qualify and sometimes we are standing in the cold doing it lol..   Would this and a blog post do for some karmacoin? Also in the video what would I need my wallet addie? I am trying to work hard to earn crypto by any means so I can re unite with my son who I haven't seen in 6 years..

Love the idea here

That's great, if you could make a video of a couple clips of you teaching class and you guys dancing I would most certainly give you 1 million karma.  The blog would be a nice addition as well.  Maybe a little narrative to explain what you're doing?  I'd love to see that and I think it would bring some good publicity to the coin as a bonus.  And yes, you can turn your wallet address into a qr code here: http://www.qrstuff.com/

I'd love to play a part in reuniting you with your son, too.  That would be priceless.

How long are you planning on doing this giveaway for? There's a patchwork farm in the city that I volunteer at whenever I have time off on a Tuesday. They are creating a community around sustainable food growing and I'd be up for making a video on that the next time I can get time off to volunteer.

edit: here's the organisation they're part of:
http://www.growingcommunities.org/about-us/

edit2: I just re-read your post and you said the first person. Do you mean first person to get the video edited and completed or first person to raise their hand and say I'll do it? If the latter, I'll do it, if you'll accept me.

I'd love to see that.  But I've only set aside 1 million karma for the giveaway, and I see that someone else is already interested so I can't guarantee I can get you 1 million unfortunately.  I would need someone else to step up and match my offer!

Nice ideea!
