Bitcoin is a real solution to some of the greatest problems in the world. There are plenty of great articles and videos that are not about bitcoin, but the audience would be greatly interested in bitcoin if they knew it existed.

I suggest we share such articles or videos here and upvote comments that promote bitcoin.

If we get this strategy working, it would be of huge value when some Cyprus-like disaster hits again and people start looking for solutions.

I'll start with a few:

On one hand, this seems like a great idea to support bitcoin.

On the other hand, we should not come off as manipulative.

Best way to spread is making comments, I think.

Agreed, but it's really demotivating by having your decently written comment buried below lots of spam. Most people dismiss bitcoin like it's some cheap scam without giving it a chance it deserves.

A few upvotes is what would motivate people write better comments about bitcoin and also make those comments more visible.

No it would just make you look even more like religious fanatics.

Wait, in that case, please do go ahead with that idea.
