Which celebrity do you think will be the best advocator for Bitcoin?

[Amph]

i also think arnold would be a good candidate, but for teens it's better to look at some young group or band that do music that are for their target and that can promove bitcoin, there isn't something better to encourage teens to embrace bitcoin

Why? Nobody can ever understand anything he says. I think ones like Nas and the Winklevi are great because they understand bitcoin for what it can achieve and have personally invested in it.

what do you mean? he can talk english very well, arny is very well accepted and liked by many and with his new terminator movie, there more recognition around it for now

also he was a governator so he should know a bit about economic system and how bitcoin work, the bases at least

[harizen]

Oprah Winfrey . Period.

pewdiepie.

I don't think any individual celebrity will really make bitcoin big, but if we had a few hit "bitcoin millionaire" shows showing bitcoiners living in luxury with their new money, and add some drama to it, who knows, that might catapult bitcoin's popularity.

[okae]

^^^ This guy's got a LOT of fans

I am sure that his fans will listen to what he has to say

hahah man from all of them on this post, this is the most powerfull for sure , can you imagine that? LOL

nah i really think that any VIP will be welcome, but since bitcoin is related to the technology, i think that someone on the edge related to this would be good.

I would prefer someone with a sound financial background and/or successful business career.

a. Elon Musk <History of knowledge of payment systems>
b. Bill Gates <Most successful entrepreneur and a vision to improve the world>
c. Sir Richard Branson <Risk taker and alternative thinker>

We need people with vision, and a true interest in making a difference where it counts the most. 

Completely agreed with this post, legitimacy would come much better from individuals with proven financial backing and are looking on as innovators at the cusp of technology.  Just to add to the list, I wouldn't mind seeing Zuckerburg or Jack Dorsey take up the BTC flag.

all this name but the question is? why these people should advertise bitcoin? imho they have more 'advantage in sponsoring some bank over another, imagine that banks pay  a lot' of money for a sponsor

[CarlesPuyol]

Mark zukerberg will be the bestfor that.
 
And maybe more multi millioners..

Yeah i think Mark zuckerberg and Bil gates is a best choice anyway
but the question is
Are they really adopted bitcoin in their life?
If thats gonna be happen it would affect the price of bitcoin

If the name of Mark zukerberg will somehow be in the same line with the word bitcoin in the news, the price of 1btc will be more than 500$ for sure.

Exactly, most celebs only look at something to see what they can get out of it. The people I mentioned, have another goal in life. They want to give back to the people in need. Bill Gates is doing this with his Bill Gates foundation, and he has already seen the impact, it can have on the poorest nations on earth. <Remittance>

Same goes for Sir Richard Branson, he is used to taking on the giants in the corporate world. His reputation as
a Pit Bull in this field, is what we need to take on the giants <eBay / WU / MoneyGram / Banks>

Elon Musk have the experience of developing ground breaking payment methods and his developments in cheap electricity and alternative energy, makes him ideal, for Bitcoin Mining solutions.

We do not need people like Kim Kardashian with her sex tape background and reckless spending habits to represent us, we already had enough of that. ^hmf^

Two of those (bolded) are already involved or have invested in bitcoin companies at least. I think getting any entrepreneurs involved would be a good thing and many more will surely get onboard over time.

Zukerberg is a CIA shill and probably one of the last people Bitcoin (if it were an entity) would want to associate itself with.

Farcebook passes on all your activities to the NSA, and I believe Zukerberg does this willingly under the rules of 'you scratch my back I scratch yours' future benefits of business operation.

What this means in real terms, is that the CIA knows exactly the shape of the kind of asses you like based on your 'likes' activity.

I don't know why Bitcoin doesn't do what Dogecoin did, like getting the Doge symbol on a Nascar. Having a donation fund to promote Bitcoin awareness and adoption would help. Get a white Bitcoin symbol on an NBA basketball... you wouldn't even have to change the color of the orange ball for branding.

The most suitable person is Bill Gates imo, no doubt about it. Some people will think that bitcoin as a one of the ways Bill Gates have taken to make him rich, and they will follow him. Or a sportsman maybe, like Messi or Ronaldo which they have million fans in the world.

Yes, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet (this one is highly unlikely) or other very rich investors / businessman would turn the balance to Bitcoin greatly.

yup agreed
Bill gates he have a big company and strong capital to growth his money
and of course the price of bitcoin will going up

Show, not tell is the art of true storytelling.

A pop princess saying 'hey, use Bitcoin' isn't going to do much. A well-known entrepreneur conveying how Bitcoin makes their business and life more effective is the type of endorsement that really counts. It wouldn't even be an endorsement. It would be a demonstration that speaks for itself.

Any publicity is good, but I don't really think "highly intelligent" when I see celebrities. It's the stars of business and finance that are truely the best advocates.
Remember Astin Kutcher? The guys kinda laughable. And sports stars are notoriously stupid and often terrible money managers.
Still, they command attention and respect...
What's Willy Nelson got to say about btc? He's a pretty libertarian guy...

[jonald_fyookball]

Barack Obama.

i dont know... publicity can be bad, but as far as celebrities go, maybe 50 cent, last i remember he was accepting bitcoin for his album purchases: http://www.coindesk.com/50-cent-bitcoin-payments-new-album-animal-ambition/

And what is their position on what bitcoin "can achieve"?

[Patatas]

For me ,it's Bill Gates
