If we really wanna do it ...we should be careful that it does not end up as a porn show. That would be a hindrance to go mainstream. Its a good idea to have the vote through bitcoin.

why not let the girls benefit from the voting by sending them btc directly which they can keep?  whoever accumulates the most btc wins the contest with the award being the btc itself.

Make an entry requirement to state what would be a cool way that females would use Bitcoin

great feedback to get the ladies to use Bitcoin, we need them on board too

for those of you who don't know, the BitPay founders Galippi and Pair, were very involved in bikini magazines before Bitcoin and as they transitioned into BitPay.  they used to use them as click bait in the early days to bootstrap their business.  i for one was always clickin'.

this explains why their booth at conferences are surrounded by babes; they have a ready and willing population of girls who'd probably be thrilled at such a contest.

I was wondering about that.  Had a chance to catch a glimpse of a couple of them at the San Jose conference last year and boy did they stand out!

I just read about Tony Gallippi's past here => http://valleywag.gawker.com/the-bitcoin-broker-and-the-13-year-old-girl-in-the-biki-1563202590

He used to run a site called soopermodels.com. From web archive it seems it is full of nude and half-nude models => http://web.archive.org/web/20120107034335/http://soopermodels.com/

I hope the Ms. Bitcoin contest does not end up something like this.

You could undoubtedly come up with all kinds of prize sub-categories as well:

1.) Smoothest looking QR code cheek
or
2.) Hottest girl with ugliest mining rig setup (assuming you can actually find any that mine :p)

I mine and I'm a girl! I agree with the guy who suggested this contest should include difficult questions about Bitcoin knowledge and so on, it needs to be Bitcoin related not just random bikini pics!
ps. I'm a girl in my 20's with some adorable geeky guy friends (in case u guys were wondering how I got into mining). x

Lolzzz, I love bikinis but I fear I would be called a bitwhore if I wear one with a logo on it? no?

This is an important factor that not all the BTC using people are tech people...so if we want to involve every types of people.... We need this sort of innovative ideas....

Innovative ideas is the only way forward, PR is so important, it can mark the beginning and/or the end of pretty much everything. I wiish there were more girls on here, we are really good at PR and coming up with innovative promoting ideas, Pr stunts, etc etc.

Have you learned nothing? If we wear bitcoin bikini tops everyone will assume we are bitwhores. If you're not a bitwhore, don't wear that. However, if you are a bitwhore, you can totally wear that, my apologies. Oh and make sure you upload your naked pics to reddit!

Yea, I had the same idea, with the same name for a site, where they post for bitcoin. Similar to what was on reddit a while ago. Put a QR code on the bikini and people donate if they like it.

To proof if it's really them, people on the site, can ask for a specific pose, as proof.

A perfect opportunity to make some extra money, and you do not have to go nude or semi-nude. Have a age restriction, if you really want to protect under age people from doing this, but they pose on other platforms in any way, so nobody will be able to stop anyone from posting clothed pictures. Site moderators just delete any underage looking pictures, before they are posted on the site.

Have a competition for men too, to make things fair to both sexes.  

I think this was frowned on, when it was on reddit though.. but I think that was nude pictures.
