I do hope not, that'd be just what we need to get this kick started.

@OP

It's always great to see more people getting involved with-or-without others helping them. Guys like us have to stick together on that front.

That said, I think the typical "dancing on the street like a weirdo" tactic will only serve to make people think bitcoin is weird, and rightfully so.

There is an obvious split here between consumers and businessmen in the bitcoin community. I consider myself a professional both and have equal arguments for both sides. That said, I don't see how this will go the way you're hoping it.

Here's a suggestion: Do all of this without the craziness. Also, as a fellow crazy person (see bittalk.tv), if you ever want to do something crazy together, give me a shout!


To sum up:

No pandas. No prostitutes. Just concerned activists on the street.

Bitcoin is just a method to a solution. You should always expect that your audience will be businessmen more than consumers.


Peace.

This has already been taken into account, we're doing "two sides" in the street we will simply try and gain attention, however we plan on getting normal people, just wearing t-shirts going in stores, standing in business area's and handing out leaflets.

Tackling consumers in the tourist parts and businesses in the business districts.

i see nothing wrong with well behaved pandas and cute girls...

Sorry but I guess I've been living too close to Japan for too long to think that a panda bear and a cute girl can be in the same room together without something vile happening.

Okay, i will send 2 BTC but i want a photo of the Panda and the pretty girl holding up a sign saying TyGrr.com and have the bitcoin symbol. You only need to show the sign for the photo as TyGrr.com is not even up yet, just want to use it later. If this gets bigger I might send a couple more coins.

thx

So a guy named goat with an elephant avatar is getting a panda to advertise his website TyGrr.com? Confused much?  Grin

It's a crazy world.
Try get awareness for this thread (It's in an unusual location!)

Tell the bit coin businesses you use about it.

Also, working on the t-shirts now, however the "previews" don't look as good as the one shown before, however after talking to their customer support it should look just as good once printed. Smiley
