Charlie Sheen? Hah! I would love to see that! Somehow I don't think he'll be interested Well, we can convince him to use Bitcoin in the way Satoshi described, to receive paid fan mail. I'm sure Charlie would find something on Silk Road to spend the Bitcoin Charlie Sheen: The Only Customer Silk Road ever Declined to Sell To (they didn't want their products abused)

Using Bieber is terrible idea. His audience is worst possible fit for bitcoin and it is too big. It may boost bitcoin user base, but too fast and will bring concentrated amount of targets for hackers and scammers. More damage than good. If you want celebrity endorsement you need to choose very carefully and start smaller. I would propose Stephen Fry. He is a tech-savvy guy and has good enough following not to overwhelm. He is more of intellectual type of celebrity... And he supports open source.

I used JB as an example and for shock purposes. This post is not meant as trying to endorse a celebrity--JB or otherwise. For it to work correctly, as I've outlined, it would have to happen organically and with stealth. If possibly done in that fashion, the growth rate should not be that overwhelming. You're suggestion of Stephen Fry, Gladiator, is a fine example.

Nice job! Real nice! But I was not thinking of Bieber's Bitcoin B Being so small. Remember that since he's a letter man-- The B, don't you think the symbol B should be on the back of his jacket in the largest font as possible. Or, because Bitcoin is so cool:What if The Fonz got on board?

I was thinking of asking the queen to get a bitcoin tattoo (not in person - I'd have to send lots of letter until the police came and politely asked me to stop) - there is no grander sight in life than seeing a woman in her 80s donning a tattoo.

Everyone chill, I got this. I'm working on some bitcoin hat designs for my upcoming bitcoin hats store, including some cool ones the youngsters might like. I'll send one to Bieber but won't mention anything about bitcoin, I'll just say I'm a huge fan and made this hat for him. Maybe he'll wear it and be seen wearing it. Feel free to suggest a design, I'll send you a free one if I have it made. http://bitcoinhats.com/test5.png

You are so correct. And she is why I purchase Jergens at Sam's Club.

I spend a lot of time on the internet looking at pictures of older ladies so I consider myself very much an expert in these matters. Let me know if you have anything older - I can pay in bitcoins.

Just goes to prove one could be an expert in anything. I also knew darn well she wasn't 80ish. That's not the reason I opted to show this image. I wan going to title it Hunt the Bitcoin. Did you find it? Hint: On here right... I dare anyone here to tell me it ain't so. I'm here to tell you that years decades ago, she got the first Bitcoin tattoo before Bitcoin was cool. BTW, I'm an expert on German speaking young blond ducks. Maybe we could meet up sometime and discuss our fetishes. Bring a shoe if you come.

I was too overwhelmed with lust to waste my time looking for some time travelers tattoo - I'm a red blooded heterosexual, so forgive me.

This thread sure does bring back memories. In the news today: Justin Bieber Greeting Cards Now AvailableJustin Bieber fans have been rewarded once again. True "Beliebers" can now pick up Justin Bieber greeting cards from Hallmark at Walmart stores nationwide.
The cards will also be available starting in May at Hallmark Gold Crown stores and other stores where Hallmark products are sold. The cards range in price from $2.57-$9.99, and range in size from 19-by-13-inch "Big Time" cards down to "Itty Bitty Greetings," which are perfect for slipping into lunchboxes, according to a news release. Now, imagine if those same cards had bitcents in them, like gifts from "The Bieb". ~Bruno~
