If you want to make bitcoin BIG, how about a Treasure Hunt like this one?

Someone can place $10,000 worth of bitcoins somewhere on the planet, in a USB card. Then they can leave clues on a website, and the news will pick it up, and all kinds of people that would never be involved with bitcoin, will come out of the woodworks to find the Treasure worth $10,000

Why does Bitrebel have 65+ Ignores?
Because Bitrebel says things that some people do not want YOU to hear.
Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

An excellent idea! Here's the beauty of it. Nobody has to donate their Bitcoin for the $10,000 prize. Nor would donations need to be collected. Ask me how that can be done in this thread. Back in about an hour--going to fry some zucchini.

No. But a good guess. Pattaya! (only kidding)

Seriously, with Tim Dedopulos, the author of the book mentioned by the OP, as well as many others. http://www.amazon.com/Tim-Dedopulos/e/B001H6II14

Since his sole income, possibly, is based on sales of books, all that needs to be done is approach him with the idea where he'll allocate $10,000 from the sale of the The Great Bitcoin Treasure Hunt toward the prize, and still recognize a potential handsome profit. It's safe to say that's how he's doing it with his original idea. Bitcoin will be the catalyst for his second treasure hunt book, thereby starting a whole series of books he'll be able to enjoy a profit stream from.

It's either that or hide Bitcoin in Ladyboy's pants.
