Wait so am I doing this or is Little Shop doing it? Getting confusing. The place I saw offers them for $3.22 and you can pay regular USD for them. If you guys prefer going with littleshop for $6-8 BTC payment only let me know. Up to you guys.
I thought you were doing a magnet and LittleShop was seeing if anyone was interested in a modified sticker. Perhaps LittleShop can start a new thread to avoid hijacking yours. Those who prefer magnets can do a group buy with you and those that prefer stickers can do a group buy with him.
Regarding 'In Cryptography We Trust' ... Let me play devils advocate here for a minute.
Marketing 101: you need to think about the purpose of these bumper stickers. Your audience is all that matters.
"In Cryptography We Trust" is just going to offend some people who will see it for what it is: A play on words with the removal of "God".
No different than using the Christian Fish symbol and putting 'DARWIN' in the middle of it. Its offensive to many.
They will not give a rats ass about your weird new currency when they see that.
Nothing wrong with ruffling a few feathers. After all, that's why Jesus was executed. He ruffled the feathers of the religious establisment of his time. It's blasphemous to link God to something as insidious as fiat currency. That's what they should be upset about. BTW, I'm a Christian and the expression doesn't offend me at all.
The rest of the people are not in the "tech" world, and will likely zone out when they see "Cryptography".
The phrase sounds cool to you, but its not going to mean much to non geeks.
And they are the only ones who matter.
Or maybe it will spark a non-techie's interest when they see it and lead them to Google "cryptography" to find out more about it.
The purpose of these bumper stickers (magnets) isnt to show that you're raging against the machine, and religion.
You're not making a statement of rebellion.
My goal at least is to get the symbol, the logo, and the thought into people's heads.
Because this is the best way to guarantee success. Familiarity. Brand recognition.
The only people worth offending with Bitcoin are bankers. Maybe something like
Bitcoin
"Privacy, Security, Freedom"
I dont know ... just thinking out loud. Im just going to order the regular one and put it on my car. :-P
I agree "Accepted Here" is a little strange, but it could also be the standard logo for bitcoin, which it is, pretty much everywhere you see it. So you'd just be promoting that standard logo. And it doesn't offend anyone. "Bitcoin" by itself would also be perfect. Brand recognition.
For me, there's more to it than "marketing" or "selling" Bitcoin. It's also about trying to wake people up. Yes, I understand most people don't want to wake up, but they need to understand that Bitcoin is much more than just a new, cool, convenient way to pay for stuff. It's also important to let people know that Bitcoin takes control of money away from bankers and politicians.
Edit: I also like "Privacy, Security, Freedom". "Accepted Here" is more appropriate for a store-front window or next to a cash register.
