Thinking about naming my baby girl Bitcoin.. (due in 3 weeks)

No one cares about your cents and dollars round here. 

You should because crypto has no value unless converted to real-world or "fiat" currency.

My $.02.

false.

you can buy goods and services directly with crypto, without ever having to involve "fiat". its a currency in of its own.

Yes, but what LostDutchman is saying is that we still convert (in our minds) to USD or EUR to give BTC prices. This is because Bitcoin's value has changed very quickly and we as humans can't cope with such unstability.

That doesn't mean it's reliant on USD or EUR. USD and EUR could crash to worthless and the value of it could remain the same. That's what i'm saying.

I think we are "a little bit" far from the topic

[Sicks3144]

No, I don't see how this could be beneficial for her. Don't do it.

If you want to name her after a sweet asset, I would suggest Apple. Or Goldie.

thanks but I can see the media flooding on this? 'even a middle name?  to help btc?? I have no donations yet..

How utterly fucking revolting.

Well surprisingly this topic is still around surprised no one mentioned it as just a symbol yet *Just came to use the BTC Symbol* Lol

I cant imagine someone having someones name or last name ending bitcoin.

Its like saying my names is Bob Dollar. lolll.

As for the beneficial part, I dont think there is much.

There are a lot of people with the last name of "Dollar".   Just searching yellowpages.com (people finder) pulled up over 100 listings.

Do it, your bitcoin holdings will double without you spending a dime.

I think the reason the OP has received no donations is because he is only "thinking" of naming his baby girl "Bitcoin".  The ultimate name he chooses is up to him, so I don't see why anyone should donate for the guy to name his daughter "Jennifer".

I was joking there. He said he has accumulated a little bit over 1btc so with another bitcoin he will have 2 bitcoins

[LostDutchman]

IMHO, this thread should be either locked or deleted.

It's waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy past time to get OFF the OP's ass!

My $.02.

[ReCat]

I thought it was cool until i saw how eager he is in getting donations... :/

He probably doesn't even have a wife! This could all be made up for all we know.

[BBQminter]

Either this forum is full of trolls and incredibly gullible marks, or this forum is full of total morons.  I hope it's the former.

Drop out of college with your 0.5 bitcoins so you can watch your "investment" grow, then go knock your cousin up and name the incestual lovechild dogecoin!  Good idea.

By this time next week, you'll be able to live happily ever after on your yacht with your sisterniece colgate and daughterwife dogecoin after your 0.5BTC becomes worth infinity dollars.

If I could get money, I would change my name.

If I could get money, I would change my name.

...and enough to change it back

[Sutters Mill]

To reiterate what everyone has said. Don't do this! Not sure what it would be to achieve. Yeah it would get media attention maybe but it wouldn't have a huge pact on the bitcoin economy if any. Don't do it to her. You will regret it.

I disagree, I don't think it'd get ANY media attention outside of new sites. It would have gotten media attention last November, but not now.

Well, you and I are almost on the same page!

The problem with crypto is that it cannot be used at 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 9999999999999999999999% of the merchants or services on the planet so it must be converted to something that is.

I am not seeking to change the World, I am not trying to bring crypto to the masses; I am only and I repeat ONLY trying to make money!

Mining BTC is an exercise in futility, so I mine LTC (And occasionally other scrypt), convert to BTC and then SELL OUT for good old US DOLLARS!

I keep some lying around for speculation and reinvest a substantial portion of my cash proceeds into more scrypt mining equipment.

Regardless of what anyone says, it is really ALL about the money and by "money" I mean dollars, dinars, drachmas, rubles, rupees or pounds fucking sterling.

UNIVERSALLY SPENDABLE STUFF!

Lol

I dunno.

I have the same problem and have tried everything I can think of to get rid of it.
