http://www.kgw.com/story/news/local/2015/08/21/100m-donation-portland-state-university-doesnt-show-up/32122423/ (you gotta watch the video - this guy has con written all over him)

Quote
On Monday, August 17, as more information came to light and no money was received, PSU canceled the planned announcement and notified the governor, the mayor and The Oregonian. In retrospect, PSU should have taken more time to review his offer. We are assessing our internal procedures to ensure this remains a one-time occurrence."

KGW News interviewed Fitzpatrick Friday at his Portland residence, and he told the station that he still intends to make the gift in the near future.

And that's how you bring awareness to Bitcoin to the governor of Oregon, the Portland mayor, and The Oregonian.

It should be relatively obvious that the OP is trolling. The link the OP posted identifying himself is an article discussing how someone named John Fitzpatrick offered to donate $100 million to some universities foundation despite him having a history of insolvency. The university did not catch this for quite a while and had planned a ribbon cutting ceremony and everything (which is similar to what has happened with several people in this thread).

Furthermore, the forum is not worth anywhere near $100 billion, especially considering that the forum only generates roughly $25,000 worth of revenue per month, and that the market cap of bitcoin is only ~$3.5 billion.

Ergo, there's a crazy fuck out there in the wild givin' Bitcoin a bad rap. Look at how he already fucked the town of Pryor, OK, then, thanks to his pastor, is in the process of fuckin' Joplin, OK, with his Bitcoin ruse, that after leaving New Mexico spewing his shit that first involved Portland, OR, unrelated to the recent university endowment episode.

Well people in the Bitcoin world tend to check facts slightly more often so such a scam would be unlikely to gain any credibility. Plus I would be doubtful that theymos would be willing to sell the forum for any price.

Also the OP is almost certainly not who he claims to be Roll Eyes

Buy this Forum? Interesting, what are you offering?

We'll need to take your offer to the committee for further discussion.

Note that this forum operates as a Cooperative, meaning that every member has an ownership stake so payment will need to be made to each member, directly and that each payment will need to be agreed upon by each member. We have a fairly simple system for you to conduct the process, which we can discuss once the final price is agreed upon.

Please submit your offer in terms of gross payment to the creator and administrators as well as the additional payments that will be made to each member.

Thanks.

From the desk of John Fitzpatrick,

My name's John Fitzpatrick from Portland, OR. Maybe you've heard of me. Maybe not. Doesn't matter. I wish to purchase this forum. Who's the Cheesehead that I need to talk to to consummate the deal? I'm willing to pay upwards to a hundred billion dollars for it.

Thank you in advance,

John Fitzpatrick.

jmf
If you are what you claim to be I claim to be the owner of this forum Smiley we can seal a deal as long as we dont have to give proof of each other's identity. You start sending money to my account (pm to you), I will start the ownership transfer :0 Grin
