I, personally, like the idea of the 1000BTC donation going to an organization which then doles out smaller donations to the community. But that organization's choices should be independent of the group funding it, and maybe it will be.
By donations to smaller groups, I'm sure you also don't mean, pay their developers a salary through it like they have done so far.

OK... This should do it for a scammer tag.
Theymos ended the scammer tag aspect, giving us the Trust thingy in its place.

Euh, What's wrong with that? If you look at the website they created they are donating to projects, effectively spending the amount.
They are donating to the EFF (which won't take it), their own paid shill and contractor (luke-jr/BFGminer) and another paid shill and contractor (CGminer/ckolivas/Kano) Yeah fuck you too. ... and no I didn't get any so fuck you again ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Is retard Inaba teaching you how to treat people who have something against you? Edit: Also it seems that they only donated ~150 BTC from the promised 1000. Let's see how long will it take them to actually donate ALL 1000 BTC!

Not that I'm advocating for BFL but..
Lots of rich people do exactly that, basically give money to themselves, but a separate tax entity. All of which is perfectly legal.
Bill Gates created the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, which he and his wife controlled, and then donated Micro$oft money to it. Essentially, he donated the money to himself, so he still has a say in where the money goes.
Did you really thing Bill Gates was going to give money to anybody but himself?
So did Guggenheim, Carnegie and many others.
It's standard operating procedure in corporate America. It's always a shady, but perfectly legal.
my point exactly. . . but still hmmmmmmmm.....

You can see that on their site and the block chain. It didn't go to Like Jrs charity, they paid Lukey for modifynig his software so that their miners will work.

PROVE TO ME THE ADDRESSES THEY CLAIM TO HAVE SENT "DONATIONS" TO ARE NOT THEIRS....OH RIGHT YOU CAN'T.
YOU FAIL. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) huh? I'm not proving anything. All I'm suggesting, is that on their website, they have an address posted, that had 1000 BTC in it, and they have made an announcement, and then sent three 50 btc donations from it. That's what it looks like. I use donations liberally, because it looks more like two of them are payment for work. Yes, some other random person could have sent 1000 BTC to an account, and sent out three payments for work to people that happened to perform work for BFL. Yes, that's a possibility, and I'll agree that with BFL's track record, who the fuck knows for sure... In case you missed my point, BFL can claim all they want that they are "donating" to people/charities but until there is a 3rd party to verify it, it is all bullshit in my view.

I've seen people do that before, he may well be owed money, but he shouldn't be treated as a charity, nor should he let himself be taken advantage of like that, and that is definitely 100% NOT a charity payment!!!

That's a salary to lukey. And luke is laughing all the way to the bank. Lukey should pass that "donation" onto a real charity. But, he knows it's payment for his services so he will keep it.

Well ... I will say I find this thread amusing for a different reason. It's an argument about what they should do with the 1000BTC - rather than many posts before in other threads about saying they wouldn't do anything ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Personally, I do think it's great that they are giving it away, even if it isn't to those that specific people want it to be given. Hell I'd say yeah why give any of it to Luke-Jr - I can't stand the guy - he is indeed a low life with an agenda. But that's their choice ... IMO. It doesn't matter who they give it to, there will be some who claim there are others more deserving of it. But as for actually giving it away, there certainly is some amount of it that it has happened with so far, and it is easy to see the amount and where it is going by looking at that address http://blockchain.info/address/1ERVh27gZfPSDaaagL9R3W12xpMJ38ZBA7Hmm, another 75 now to ... http://www.bitcoindf.org/project/sean039s-outpost-one-bitcoin-will-feed-40-homeless-people-14

How I feelSo they'll get the 1000 BTC with the miners that they should be shipping soon, making their customer slaves wait while difficulty continues to increase. Stay classy BFL
