French street performer accepts Bitcoin.

[aardvark15]

The great thing about this is that people can pay him even though they aren't carrying any cash or change with them. It makes it very convinient to send him a few dollars in bitcoins. I t's also harder for him to get robbed.

This guy is really smart. He knows the youngsters love bitcoin and looking for way to spend their bitcoins. And since donations are normally not a lot he is very well aware that he now can have some extra's. I love it when people play this psychology game.

Agree with you to an extent but he's not really smart as you have put it.He seems to be more practical towards shit around,maybe he knows a thing or two about bitcoins he's taking it as an other opportunity to earn more.Since every newbie around the forum ,he thinks bitcoins=more money and getting rich sooner,which is a lie.

Nice idea, It's will make someone will easier to donation, Maybe will appear another performer will adopt bitcoin, Maybe it's also advertised bitcoin to civilians.

This is very interesting, however we must appreciate his job by accepting bitcoin as payment method, campaigning in this way indirectly provide information to people about what bitcoin is and how to use it
i would gladly give a small tip to this guy

What I see is a newbie posting about a Bitcoiner he may be related to singing in front of his house to a couple of his friends pretending to be a busker. How close am I?

This guy is awesome and clever. He is not just having extra earnings but also an advocate of Bitcoin.

Wow, But its hard to copy the wallet address of the  performer, I think they can have the problem in transferin their bitcoin to the performer

Don't know how to use a QR code eh?

[Herbert2020]

this is the second best idea that i have seen so far for an individual who is accepting bitcoin. and they are all great ideas and shows vast usage of bitcoin.

by the way the first thing was a college student who printed his QR code on a big paper and added donate here i am a student and also Reddit logo and got a lot of donations.

[RawDog]

So smart,

He's an idiot.  Bitcoin is soon going to be illegal in France.  Didn't you see the story about their future president arguing for new laws against bitcoin because it is made by the evil Wall Street?  lollollol.

Wow haha nice french street performer it helps in their community to introduce bitcoin. But i want to ask bro because i cant watch in youtube because my internet connection has a limit. So I want to ask if someone give bitcoin to their wallet?
And i think you should post their wallet here so that the other here will give some bitcoin to their wallet.

[mki8]

i suggested this here a while ago

if you see a street performer, busker, or even homeless beggers,
you should stop and tell them to make a sign and start to accept bitcoin
(also donate a little to them when they do start)
this would give bitcoin huge public awareness

dont forget to metion, they can accept bitcoin without it affecting any money they may get from social/welfare etc.

good news,and of course unique,every peopl who knows about bitcoin should use it on any payment or any donation,that sweet and make bitcoin more popular with every way is our duty as bitcoin enthusias.

[ObscureBean]

I wonder how much he managed to collect with this little vid  Also that got me thinking are there any laws against online/YouTube busking? Could he for example publish his music on YouTube and openly accept Bitcoin donations from his viewers? Cause that would be a pretty cool way of earning Bitcoin for anyone who's good at something (instead of relying solely on ads).

People from french some times in this type of work are simply the best one!
I remember one of the most, in the world, street festival in Mont Martre.

Dude,he is not making money out of the youtube video in case you don't know.The video is uploaded by some teenager who probably likes the idea.What laws are you even talking about ? You can do whatever want with your music video on youtube as long its original and not exploiting the copyrighted material.Anyhow that dude is too bad to actually make some money out of donations with that signing skills.

[BitTyro]

He may not be getting donations from passerby but was getting donations from those who have watched the video on youtube. 0.07196218 BTC is not bad enough. That performers' idea of accepting btc is working. I wonder how much he could get from his stint.

By the way, I have watched the video and he is a lousy singer.
