Thanks for the surprisingly quick fundraising.  Grin

1. http://www.bitcoinweekly.com/comics/bitcoin-selloff

2. http://www.bitcoinweekly.com/articles/bitcoin-decentralization-and-the-nash-equilibrium

3. http://www.bitcoinweekly.com/articles/bitcoin-alternative-applications-and-the-profit-motive

Bitcoin Weekly ransom target is .71 BTC, to release 2 articles, and 1 comic.

Donation address: 17fMqMr4KtMWGJMiqrhf3pZTBya73NAXve
You can also check the balance at http://blockexplorer.com/address/17fMqMr4KtMWGJMiqrhf3pZTBya73NAXve

Here is the list of content we are planning to release soon:

1. Bitcoin, Decentralization and the Nash Equilibrium by Vitalik Buterin
2. Bitcoin, Alternative Applications and the Profit Motive by Vitalik Buterin.
3. Bitcoin Selloff by Joey Dangerous. New comic.

How it works
Bitcoin Weekly requires a certain amount of money to be raised via donations. Everyone can donate as much or as little as they like. Eventually, the donation balance will reach our fundraising target. At that point, we will release all ransomed contents

If Bitcoin Weekly creates new content during the period between the start of this ransom and the end of the fundraising, we will add them to the list of ransomed materials. We will also increase the ransom target by .10 BTC.

Term of Condition:
It will be checked via http://blockexplorer.com/address/17fMqMr4KtMWGJMiqrhf3pZTBya73NAXve


For me, if it is found to exceed or meet .71 BTC in the time period of 7:30 AM to 8:00 AM CST(time before I go to my day job), I will publish all material as soon as possible.

It will continues to be check until .71 BTC are donated.

I look forward to reading: Bitcoin, Decentralization and the Nash Equilibrium by Vitalik Buterin

BTW, I wonder is Vitalik Buterin rides a Harley because the anagram for his name is "Trivial Bike Nut."

Vitalik is an excellent writer. I'm pretty sure I've read my share of articles by him. The anagram comment was meant only as a humorist fact. Please accept my apology for not donating. Wait a sec! If Bitcoin transactions are anonymous, how did you know I didn't donate? I truly look forward to reading the Nash Equilibrium article. Nash is one of my heroes.
