TheBitcoinTalkShow - 24 Aug - Bitcointalk Community Awards 2022

[dragonvslinux]

Hoping these videos can become a bit more regular, even if only ever few months. I noticed by the reference of Bitcoin price being at $17K at time of recording, it also took at least 3 months to release this!  Finding it hard to understand why it would take 3 months to produce this content, as I didn't particularly notice 3 months worth of content in the video either. But more regularity of the videos is the bigger issue it seems.

My only other criticism is some of the cringe-editing. Some of it looked more like it's directed towards children or the sort of YouTube content from 10 years ago that has changed a lot over time.

a very nice and interesting new episode about a topic i am very interested in👍
i am a big collector myself and read different collectibles threads every day. i had a little hope that maybe my ccc thread would be mentioned in the video - but unfortunately that was not the case

kudos Cyrus!

Wow! What an informative Youtube video right here   I wasn't aware of this Youtube channel I subscribed and watched all of the videos, I'm really impressed with how well the video was made.

The presentation was highly informative, and production, lightning, etc. was perfect. I learned a lot, I commend everyone that is a part of this well done! Waiting for more episodes...

I'm really glad you're back, I was starting to think something bad happened to one ^{[or a few]} of the team members and it resulted in halting the project.
^{- I noticed the video editor has improved a lot [e.g. the pop-up 3D rotating Bitcoin logo was a nice touch] and with regard to the ban hammer, it'd be nice to have a segment for smashing certain types of collectibles [I do know it might sound weird, but it could also be fun in some way].}

Well, now that we know this was all a joke, what are you doing here? Go subscribe to my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@notatether9583 where new videos are posted at least once a month.

(no seriously, I could use the subscriptions, to build my channel history with Google )

Done! I’m your second subscriber 🥈

Technically you are my first, because the real 1st subscriber is just my main YT account.  

That makes BitcoinTalkShow your second subscriber

The BitcoinTalkShow is back with a block buster, hitting us with awesome and interesting episode. I'm loving the aphorism gem "Perfect is the enemy of good." Ain't that the truth?

But let's talk about printers, those sneaky little things with memories and emotions. If you show them you're in a hurry, good luck getting anything printed anytime soon. It's like they've got a vendetta against urgency or something. Maybe they're secretly plotting with the government to hack all “offline” paper bitcoin wallets, because that Banhammer is real. I mean, when was the last time a country banned Bitcoin anyway? They must be waiting for it to hit $69k again before they whip out that banhammer once more.

Oh, and Happy New Year to you too, BitcoinTalkShow! I mean, it's only April 2023, so better late than never, right? But hey, at least the video was recorded in December 2022, so we’re keeping up with the times. Time travel must be our secret sauce for staying ahead of the game!

Last but not the least the shirts game is getting strong!!!

@Cyrus: There's a tiny mistake (a trailing bracket) in the YouTube channel link at the bottom of the OP.

That was a quick fix by our standards

Tell me about it! I also sent a reminder PM a month later.

I'm very happy that you're making new episodes!

[crwth]

Cool episode! I learned a lot of exciting things from the video.

• Why it's important to use Testnet coins
• What are testnet coins
• Scam coin makers

And the BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR on that printer tho and the BAN Hammer. That's a good one!
"Happy new year", it's a good thing that you uploaded it before New years 

[DooMAD]

Collectibles have never been of interest for me and I've never really read much in that particular portion of the forum.  But kudos that you can make a video which can hold my attention even when it's not an aspect of the community that I'm involved with.  You still made it interesting and informative.

So we weren't late, just really early

This just made our day!

Let's just hope your writing standard is not George R.R. Martin! /J

It was a great episode indeed, I am seldom browsing the collectible section, but I am fascinated by classic, physical representations of bitcoins as the product of craftsmanship.

A little bit different from others, but really interesting.
I like this style!

[xhomerx10]

Excellent show.  I loved it.  I want moar!!

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Oooooooooh SNAP!!!

I'm a-watchin' the new video (which I hadn't realized came out) and paused it right at the frame where those "old school" collectibles are shown (the Kialara thingamajig, minerjones' copper pennies, and that absolutely beautiful polymerbit note).  Had to post before I continue watching, because I'm jumping around like a kid on a sugar high--I really thought the bitcointalk channel was defunct.

Suggestion:  I see so many YT videos where creators are presenting a ton of information on a certain topic and for whatever reason feel they have to insert humor into the script at every available opportunity, and more often than not it's just distracting and not funny in the least.  Youtubers definitely shouldn't be dead serious, but there's an enormous difference between "light-hearted presentation" and "trying way too hard to be a comedian".  Even though I've only watched a minute of the current BCT video, I'm picking up a sense that Mr. bearded yellow t-shirt is leaning toward the latter.  Don't mean to be unduly harsh, but take my feedback to heart as I'm a subscriber and a fan....and there don't seem to be many of either yet.

And I probably missed it in this thread, but is the presenter Cyrus?

Rock on!

[JayJuanGee]

......I'm picking up a sense that Mr. bearded yellow t-shirt is .........

And I probably missed it in this thread, but is the presenter Cyrus?
......

I will leave your other points without necessarily commenting upon them - but I am drawn to this idea of Mr. Bearded yellow t-shirt versus your inquiry about his identity and also whether it matches with Cyrus... hahahahaha

I suppose that "we" could keep guessing who are these peeps?

And in some sense it would be good to know, or at least if the presenter (or anyone who might be identified) might have an identity, whether fictional or not... or whether matching up with a forum identity or not.. or maybe even some made up identity in this context that might be a different identity in another context.

So in some sense, I am also in wanting of some kind of further identity, beyond (and besides) "Mr. Bearded yellow t-shirt"...  Maybe, that's theymos himself? .hahahahaha. and surely part of the difficulties in which we have forum identities that may or may not be tied to real world identities, and might be discoverable and there might be varying desires in regards to how much out of the closet that any of us might be or how we might even identify in terms of gender or other real world versus fictional aspects, and even with satoshi we have sometimes references of the plural.. which is not necessarily inaccurate to assign a plural to an unknown, but it would not be fair to proclaim that "Mr. Bearded yellow t-shirt" might be a plural when he appears to be a he.. and also that there could be some resistance to even want to take complete credit for the production, which many times these kinds of products take a team to pull together, even though the work and the credits are not always equally shared.. but whatelse is new in the "real world."

Actually, I cannot recall whether "Mr. Bearded yellow t-shirt" had ever ascribed himself an identity.. which maybe makes it more difficult to be humorous too.. when there are some difficulties figuring out the identity or the history or the context, and even with the forum itself, many of us have differing experiences, so we do not necessarily see it the same, and we might resist some of the kinds of messages or the generalizations that might be attempted to be ascribed to what is happening or who the various members (contributors) might be and their relative level of importance (or lack thereof) in adding to the experiences of other forum members.

Apology Accepted!!!!!

[allahabadi]

We can also put up episodes on important events in BTC history and trivia with slightly melodramatic tone... Like :
1. The slaying of the BTC whale...
2. Origin of HODL...
3. Pizza Story...
