This guy is raising sponsorship money for his South Pole trip...  If he gets 15 BTC he will plant a Bitcoin flag at the South Pole!  As of this writing, he is at 13.36 BTC, and counting...  Let's help him reach his goal!  It seems like a cool publicity stunt.  He is also going to buy a pizza from the South Pole using BTC as a demonstration.

If all the sovereign non-cryptocurrencies will eventually collapse from hyperinflation, you can't afford *not* to invest in Bitcoin...  See my blog at http://minetopics.blogspot.com/ .

Looks like the goal of €2000 was met. What we do not have is irrefutable proof that the donation address is valid (but no specific reason to think it's a scam either).

Hardforks aren't that hard. It’s getting others to use them that's hard.

He's going to buy the pizza, and when BTC are $10,000 a piece, he'll kick himself in the ass for that expensive pizza.  Grin

Hopefully this goes ahead without a hitch. Would be great for publicity.

I understand more and more why Satoshi decided to stay away from the limelight. Who knows how many creatures will be disturbed and how much fuel would be used for this smart expedition.

Unlike Antarctica, this (randomly picked up) place would love a little bit more of attention, with any flags

Anyway, good luck and have a safe trip.
