Bitcoin activist refuses to leave anyone out in the cold this holiday season!

[TheGr33k]

Hey everyone, it's TheGr33k! Remember the thread I made about Bitcoin merging with the fashion industry? Well, we're getting closer and closer every single day! Even though that's true, we wanted to chat about what everyone else is doing to promote!


My business partner and I have teamed up to create a small fundraiser called "Nerdy Knitties"! I'm sure you don't know since it is very brand new, but it's a small business that employes under privileged and out of work  homeless teens and young adults from New York City homeless shelters to create Bitcoin related merchandise. She holds free classes where she teaches them to paint, sculpt, and stitch up adorable warm items such as sweaters, hats, scarves, blankets, mittens, slippers, and hooded scarves! Every handmade item purchased comes with a pamphlet explaining what Bitcoin is.



We just started making hooded scarves! Since my business partner will be posting very soon, it seemed appropriate to showcase their new hooded scarf design! These are just progress pictures. It's not done yet!







If you buy one on Bitcointalk, your username, public Bitcoin address, or custom message of your choice will be stitched onto your hooded scarf!

Check out how soft the material is up close.







Sorry for the filters. I told her not to do that, but you know how Instagram models are.

Here's a pic that she didn't edit though. This was before she finished the headphone design.



Don't worry gentlemen. Hooded scarves and hats with pom poms are definitely for everyone, so don't feel odd about wearing a pom pom.






I will be flying over to Times Square pretty soon to help host our lovely fundraiser for our Bitcoin designer fashion line that's coming in 2017! We are really genuinely hoping this will gain tons of interest on Bitcoin from the fashion industry, so stay tuned! If you'd like to check out her previous hand knitted Bitcoin item, here you go!





She's got a little more than this, but I can't just give it all away!



Now that my lovely business partner is available, we will be sure to do more BitcoinTalk related business here.

So, what are you doing to promote this grand currency? Let's have a lively discussion, for it'll be definitely exciting!

Season's Greetings to all, and to all a good night!

This is ANOTHER topic you have made trying to sell your Girlfriends stuff. (both with hand made BTC sweaters)
I seen one in Off-Topic for example.
And i have outlined how you are almost certainly sharing a bed with banned member codishmumu

Nevermind you had sent me msg's that you know people threatening me, even after i told you leave me alone.
Then you hijacked a topic of mine about it all.. claiming to be a concerned citizen  

THEN i looked up your post history and it reeks of Card'ing fraud.

[TheGr33k]

[Butthurt attention whoring nonsense here.]

I normally don't respond to your trolling since I know it's just free publicity from a human being that tries to antagonize other Bitcoin activists who are trying to promote while people like yourself just desperately try to tear down another's effort because they cannot come up with their own ideas. (Once you think about it, it makes no sense to attack a fellow Bitcoin activist that attempts to spread the word about Bitcoin in order to gain mass adoption and a price increase for the bitcoins you may or may not be holding right now). Since you've managed to make the very first post in this thread front and center, I might as well respond to it. To think you're still upset about me trying to bring awareness to someone who was sending you a death threat to the point that I had to "ambush" one of your threads is quite surprising. That was for the concern of your safety. Also, sorry but codishmumu is unbanned now. Check out her last activity, then check out this statement:

Also, she's not my girlfriend if I already have one.

Also, I know you like to make up stories but....1. I bought my account so the previous owner's actions might be mistaken for mine and 2. If you're just gonna talk and not prove anything you're saying, then it doesn't make sense to even bother saying anything.

Have a good day.

Hi there. While I do appreciate friendly hellos, try not to message me when someone is attacking you. I'm not always going to have time to defend a friend. Do not do that again.


You're lucky though, because I do not like Spoetnik so I had to show up. Spoetnik is a troll that was probably sued for everything he has and that's why he is so very much angry all the time, and just wants to see everyone suffer. He reminds me how people like him mostly end up in that padded room where they get an opportunity to hug themselves all day long. Then someone had the nerve to compare MRKLYE to Spoetnik. The difference between them is the fact that one owns up to their mistakes and behavior and tries to fix it, while the other thinks he's perfect.


Head to the Meta forum to see the lovely alleged lawsuit thread. Also check out that thread Gr33k posted.


Cool!

Since Spoetnik decided to be a six year old and ambush the thread, let's stay on topic:


I'm trying to promote Bitcoin through coding, teaching Japanese for free, teaching relatives about Bitcoin, and even helping my professional baking sister make Bitcoin cookies. Really awesome, yes?

I love this idea! I hope it does well.

[franky1]

all im going to say is the hooded scarf and scarfs in general seem to be a better product.

it will grab a better demograph than woolly sweaters, and the design just looks better.

hooded scarves are a new trend and definitely something the fashion industry will pick up on, so im glad to see your upping your game compared to the proposal you offered last month.

Thank you.

I normally do my best to attempt very Christian oriented work, such as performing good acts and roles for free. I feel that it is very important and overall necessary to truly grow Bitcoin. Most of the time, my work is mostly computer related. In this day in age, we must fight to constantly grasp every opportunity we possess to use the technology we have to explore possibilities and bold good heights. Most people do not have the same advantages as we do when it comes to technology. We do not have much time to waste it now.


Before I forget, please tell me when that hat design is ready. I really do like it. I like how she made a headphone design on the hooded scarf. Young teens and adults will definitely adore this hat.

Lol.


Here he goes again!  

I never said anything about selling a sweater. Don't start with that, please. I said my friend made me one, then she made another person one, then she wasn't making anymore for sale.


I don't understand how you don't understand. Also, my friend is the one that comes up with the items. Not me. You're really starting to annoy me with that.

In those moments when I would defend myself too, I would just take this and put it in bold 20pt size font.


Anyway, can I buy a hood with a matching sweater?

[Kakmakr]

Let's keep the flaming down and talk about the OP's topic. Scam or not, it is still a good idea to involve unemployed street kids to do the work. I would want to see some proof of that to buy into this, with all the scam accusations flying around. The hooded scarfs looks nice and cosy. ^hmf^

If I do support this, I would want to see my money going to a good cause.

Thanks so much, but this thread is also about discussing other people's ideas for mass adoption.


Are you saying that you'd purchase a cool hooded scarf? Just remember that a phrase of your choosing gets stitched on and snapshot to you before payment. As for proving she employes "street kids", she will probably talk to the head of the shelters to write you a letter where you can call a phone number and speak to a representative there, and talk to the shelter's residents I suppose. But by this logic in terms of scamming, we could make up a fake homeless shelter, a fake number to call, use one of our close friends to pose as a representative and just get all of our friends at a party and pretend like we're having so much fun " knitting sweaters and hats" over the phone.


Lol.

It's not like I would have even trolled anyone. It's Spoetnik's fault. He should have kept whatever nonsense he had to himself. He obviously did that to get a reaction.

 Now he has nothing to say.

As for the hat, I love it too. Thinking about buying one? I personally want both the hat and matching sweater.

I'm gonna get my items stitched with "Crypto-Knight".

lol you are such a fan boy. You protest for so many users here. Thanks for your support. I still honestly think you're probably someone's mule. I just don't know who you could be yet.

a simple 'thank you for saying the hooded scarf is a good idea', would suffice..

[Kprawn]

Did you go into the type of fabric being used to make this clothing? I hope it is wool and not some synthetic material. I prefer wool for the following reasons :

    Wool is durable and long lasting.  Wool fiber is unsurpassed in flexible strength. 
    shape for a lifetime of use.


    Wool is absorbent and healthy.  Wool fibers naturally draw moisture away from
    the body and can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without becoming
    clammy from perspiration, keeping you dry when sleeping.


    Wool provides comfortable warmth.  Wool fibers are fluffy with tiny air pockets.
    Their loftiness and cushiony insulation keep body heat in and cold out.


    Wool is flame-resistant.  Wools’ natural moisture content makes it non-
    combustible. A wool blanket will not melt or ignite into flames; an excellent
    safety precaution when sleeping or lounging around the campfire.


    Wool is dirt and odor resistant. Wool's microscopic scales hold dirt near the
    surface of the fabric, making it easy to remove at the same time preventing
    odors from being absorbed by the fibers.

Some people struggle with allergies and wool is the perfect material for some of these people. Do you carry stock or do you create them as the orders are being placed?

So you are using poor people who do these things for free and you sell them afterwards.  Not only are you seen as a good person, but you are making money with almost no labor cost!  I'm just messing around

OP and his business partner might be taking advantage of those homeless people once you think about it. She could pay them really low for their work because homeless people will probably take any payment. Whether it was 5 dollars or 5 pennies an hour. She might be running the shelters like Chinese sweatshops for all we know....


(Sorry OP. I'm your friend, but I have to be honest with how I feel).
