giving a homeless people bitcoin instead of simple cash is like giving a hungry person spoon, fork, plate, glass in different shapes and sizes but no food!

Exactly good comparison, how can a homeless man cash it out if he only thinks all the time that if it's not money, he won't be having benefit on it. Better to directly give him a cash or anything that can help him to survive but just like the saying, it's better to teach a homeless man how to fish instead of giving him a fish to eat. Teach him on how to use and earn bitcoin instead of tipping him paper wallets.

Just please check if these are real homeless not some gypsy mafia beggars. Never heard of gypsy mafia? Here's how it works.
They offer work, usually to women with children. They give them transport and housing, in London for instance, and every morning send them on their way to beg. IN the evening they pick them up by car and take most of their money.

Never give beggars money, offer them a meal.

I have watched a video of a woman that is begging money on the road but she is only on disguise. She didn't know that there is someone spying and taking her on video after a while when possible she collected well. She get on her car and undress with her beggar costume. But still there are some real people who are homeless, you can observe most of them are not begging.

Awesome idea but the fee is high. So when you give paper wallet, they can't send it to somewhere else to cash out. The amount disappears due to fee.

good idea but we should never give them illegitimate paper wallet to troll them. however, printing the bitcoin paper wallet, especially when you are planning to print certainly  large amount of that, make sure to have some crowdfunding to seek some of the group's support.

use altcoin, they are most likely to have far less dollar equivalent transaction fees.

out of ability to use the signature, i want a new ban strike policy that will fade the strike after 90~120 days of the ban and not to be traced back, like google | email me for anything urgent, message will possibly not be instantly responded
i am not really active for some reason

They are homeless for a reason and if we would stop helping them they would die and the problem would be solved.  We need to be creating a stronger race and not supporting to broken portions of the race, diluting the gene pool.  
P.S being rich is not a stronger race.
Kim kardasian, trump, kenye west are not a good/strong gene pool for our future
Capitalism encourages greed, which is a negative trait.  It's safe to say that the working and middle classes tend to be more morally sound than particularly rich and/or famous people.  You can say "the rich donate to charity", but the amount that say, Bill Gates lives on is still dramatically higher than any normal person, so he is not generous.  Nor is he responsible for everything that Microsoft has done.

Homelessness can be for a variety of reasons and drugs or alcohol can be a contributing factor, but it's futile to suggest that it has to be the reason or that homeless people are incapable of having money.

The point is, giving paper wallets to homeless people is dumb.  It would be much better to just explain to them ways in which you believe Bitcoin would help them and potentially donate after that to give them an incentive to use it (if that's the aim of giving them a paper wallet anyway).


Capitalism does not encourage anything, that comes from the people, whether you like capitalism or not that is the only system that is proven to work on a massive scale, is it perfect? No, but it is way better than communism and all other systems that have been created, because people will only work if they can keep most of the benefits of their work to themselves.

It is exactly this "helping" that causes the society to become how it is now.  These are not people that are going to change, they are people that are going to destroy us and create a race that the universe will laugh at and scorn.  God help us if aliens ever do take a peek at us, perhaps they have a that is why they marked a few fields and moved on.  Crop circle reading "avoid, damaged goods!".

I can understand that it is your dumb opinion,but no one will agree to this,how do you create a strong race if you are not able to show compassionate because humans are known for that and that is the difference between an animal and a human being.You are just a Nazi and i am out talking to you,get a life dude.If anyone wants to tip the homeless make sure that you could do that with fiat currency because it will be more useful for them than getting a paper wallet.

In my opinion, You keep feeding the homeless and we will keep building those that have something to offer and we will compare the results in ten years and see what happens.
