that's pretty great.
he should've put his qr code on that flag!  he'd get peppered with donations i imagine.

That's epic indeed. Bitcoin goes everywhere

I also really like that bitcoin logo used on the flag (with the arrows and the globe), anyone knows where it comes from?

[empoweoqwj]

Fantastic image - just my iphone can't scan that QR code. Can he do another one with just the QR code in the pic?

He could probably eat a dozen pizzas a day with the calories he must be burning.

Look closed to at the flag. There is QR code

That kind of weird activism gives me the feeling that bitcoin will never become mainstream

Its just another example of how transformative a technology bitcoin is. All you need now is an image and people can send you money. That's fantastic innovation.

I know you won't see it, you seem pretty down at the moment

epic indeed!

if someone could get a more clear/larger image of that QR code I'm sure the community wouldn't mind sending some donations.

There is one, although don't know if it's big enough to use properly. Maybe there's a larger version out there.

Weird activism?
Consider it distributed advertising.

I think we are done with that kind of advertisement already.
I might be wrong but i can't think of something more flaky than a guy waving a bitcoin flag in the south pole

It's this kind of activism that gets it into the mainstream

I agree. Love this about it. Imagine being in a foreign country and your family or friends being able to send you money easily. This is why I hope Bitcoin starts getting picked up by merchants in more and more locations. I'd love to be in all these different counties and see the Bitcoin logo. Hopefully this will become a reality one day.
