Bitcoin donations for Stefan Molyneux / Freedomain Radio (@117.50 BTC)

[The Madhatter]

No more emails from him? Weird that he wouldn't get interested.

That is correct. He might just be really busy.

More correspondence:

Hello Stefan,

It has been 30 days since I started the FDR fundraiser. I have closed
the donations box. I am now handing the box over to you to do with it as
you wish.

Here are the credentials for the MyBitcoin account that I had created to
collect all of the coins into for FDR.

Did he say he will interviewing Satoshi, the mystery man who invented bitcoin?

[The Madhatter]

I had sent a message to Satoshi and Stefan regarding a radio/youtube interview.

Neither one of them ever replied.

Disappointing. Thanks for trying.

Maybe they're just incredibly busy?

Was it made clear that "Bitcoins are the #1 most important development in the fight for freedom in this century" to get his attention?

I facebooked him about BTCs a couple months ago and got no response, but I didn't phrase it like the above (rather, it was a long-winded explaination of BTCs with a request for an interview with Satoshi, so naturally he didn't want to do something that he didn't understand is my guess...)

What avenues have been tried? Has someone tried messaging his youTube account? What about facebook? Was it made clear that "Bitcoins are the #1 most important development in the fight for freedom in this century" to get his attention?

He'll know you are wrong since raising children peacefully is the number one important development in the fight for freedom. Bitcoin can have #2 spot though.

I'd still put seasteading before in this priority list.

BrightAnarchist was referring to "developments" rather than "ideas". People can use bitcoin today, but seasteading isn't yet practical for ordinary people.

I agree with FreeMoney about raising children peacefully being number one priority though.

Maybe we need to make bitcoin more visible within the liberty community? I have been submitting bitcoin updates to the free talk live website whenever news such as the eff accepting donations comes out.

You don't want child abusers on your oversized boat/undersized island 

Or did you just mean in front of bitcoin?

I vote them up, lol.

What other sites should we hit?

I'm with BrightAnarchist in putting Bitcoin as the single most important development. You can raise children peacefully and lovingly but they can still become the moral police, religious fundamentalists, hardcore nationalists, etc. Humans are weak by nature and will cling to any gods they can find, no matter how good their childhoods were. Also, profits from this strategy would take generations to be felt. As for seasteading, it only takes for the US to get together with Europe and China and decide that they need to liberate us from liberty for it to be all over.

On the other hand, Bitcoin has the potential to destroy every single government on Earth if implemented on a massive scale, and never give a chance for them to return. There would be no more asking people nicely to give you liberty, you would be able to just take it. I'd go as far as call that scenario the next stage of human civilization.

In other words, an exists that nobody in the world can close. They might thought that they could close the door, but it is moot.


Well, maybe. We don't know if bitcoin succeed or will not succeed. One thing for certain, the power that may be will have to give at some point.

Children raised without force don't grow up to force others to follow their morals. There is no one human nature. Humans are changeable and adaptable. It will take generations.

What other sites should we hit?

   I recently got an ad on project wonderful and you can see it on nhunderground http://nhunderground.com/forum/. There are a lot of sites where you can get one free because there are no other bidders. What I am doing is searching project wonderful for the keyword "liberty" and bidding on adspace. Its not directly bitcoin but it might ease people into it. 

[kiba]

I think we should advertise bitcoin directly.

I would donate bitcoins to freedomainradio...

[ribuck]

Anyone else who would donate bitcoins, feel free to say so at this thread on their forum:
