Unlocked because my separate bounty is still alive.

If the video makes it to the Digg frontpage, I will pay 1 BTC per digg it gets (max 2000). I'll also pay 500 if it makes it to the frontpage of Slashdot and 500 if it makes it to the frontpage of Reddit.

Even if it doesn't make it on those sites, I will pay 100 BTC per item below that I feel is satisfactorily covered.
- How Bitcoin works technically.
- Why Bitcoin will work economically.
- Why Bitcoin is better than the alternatives (PayPal, Liberty Reserve, cash, etc.)
- How to get started. Won
- (Professional-looking animation and audio.) Won
- (Long-term value for the Bitcoin community.) Won

So you could get a total of 3,600 from me. The video must not contain any major inaccuracies to qualify. I can help answer questions about how Bitcoin works, and there is a lot of info on the wiki.

Bitcoin combines money, the wrongest thing in the world, with software, the easiest thing in the world to get wrong.

Did Satoshi ever give his OK? It seems that the community has more or less accepted this?

Satoshi did not communicate, so we substitute him with Gavin.

So what was the final outcome? Cause the thread title still says 13622 and growing... I'm confused.

Sweet! I'm only asking cause apparently I pledged on page 2, but I didn't visit the forums in a long time and I was never PMed about it.

It doesn't look like I already sent the 50, so, where do I send it?

Sent away! I didn't think 50 BTCs would be worth as much as they are now ... I should have loaded up back then  Roll Eyes

Thanks! The logo is just based on the name and the name was a nickname I randomly picked when I was 11 years old or so. Hope you're not disappointed at the total lack of a deeper meaning. Cheesy

Wow! This is really amazing and I know what I'm talking about as I edit videos. What software did you use for this? Adobe Aftereffects?

Yes, Adobe After Effects CS4 I believe.

In other news we've just submitted the video to http://www.webcuts.org/2011/ . It was free to submit so why not.

If any of you come across any contests, awards or film festivals with an animation/motion graphics category, let us know and we'll try and get it in. I don't know how high the chances are since the video is kind of a commercial, but hey Bitcoin is open-source and this is all indie stuff plus we've got nothing to lose in submitting it. Smiley



I have to agree here also! Smiley  I am new to this forum but not new to teaching the world around me about geeky developments that may interest the 'masses'... I have been having HUGE difficulty convincing/introducing people to Bitcoin.  Non-technical, and non-conspriatorial minded ones.  The few that are curious, got lost or hung up on the issue of it being created by "anybody"

I like the other description (which is much more correct) about all bitcoins having been created when the first block chain was generated by the protocol... but the word "protocol" also looses 99% of "normal" people.  So please, let's try and find a really snazzy and easy-to-understand way of communicating this.

I think we need to link it to some aspects of the computer world that the general public understands.  Things like Google, and Facebook... but alas, I have not got a good idea (yet) for how to do it.

Please help me (us) Smiley

The remaining part of my bounty is canceled. The value is way too high now.

I'm canceling mine as well, in part because one of my conditions was approval of accuracy from Sataoshi, which now seems unobtainable.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

- Carroll Quigley, CFR member, mentor to Bill Clinton, from 'Tragedy And Hope'

So this project is pretty much now cancelled then? It was a promising project as well.
