No offense but this whole expedition was a complete fail for the bitcoin community and a waste of money.
The flag was flown on his sledge for like a few minutes then taken 2 photos? Who gives a shit, no permanent flag or installation on the south pole to put our mark on forever?
The community sponsored some random dude who didn't care for bitcoin? how about we send someone who gives a shit about monetary freedom. Someone from our community.
V poor media coverage too, not being negative just think its a fail for the community it achieved nothing other than pay off some French dude's debts which he shouldn't have taken in the first place
Fair point. I did warn the community on the risk of failure though. And something was accomplished: the first transaction from Antarctica was sent. But the last thing about this expedition has not been said yet. To be continued...
