If bitcoin was real coins, Would you pick 1500 satoshis off the ground?

[Cannotthinkofusername]

Would you? Or would that be a waste of time for you?

[galbros]

Of course I would, especially if it was face up and looked like it might be from a leap year!

Happy coin hunting!

[ChuckBuck]

How much is that?  $0.70 or so?

Hmmm, depends how it looks.  If it looks like physical Bitcoins, hell yes!

[gigEls]

I'd pick any coin from the ground

[FUR11]

Yes why not! Well, maybe I wouldn't, actually. I think there are people who need those Satoshis more than I do! Maybe someone who is begging in order to buy their next meal... Or someone who needs some more luck than I do!

[jaberwock]

There is no pattern about how physical coins should be. Chances are that people might not recognize the,
And it might be some paper wallet, so I could just let it pass thinking it was some trash paper with no value.


Problem is that the value is less than I would need to transfer to a secure wallet of mine.

[cookiemonsterwhat]

Its the same thing as asking someone would you pick up $100 bill, of course.

Its accepted as money.. 

[marcoman22]

if that coins are physical then no one can stop to be picked.

[spidergoat]

I would pick it. Who knows what would be the value of that coins when time comes.

[lemfuture]

no it's dirty 

[Brewins]

Who would refuse to pick anything with value from the ground?

It is nothing personal against or towards bitcoin

[williamj2543]

just had a really weird thought. Homeless people put qr code on a sign, people could donate bitcoin to them, they could take the money to ATM at the end of the day.

I'd assume it's some asshole kid's revision of the dollar on a string prank. I'd assume they hold the privkey and empty the wallet as soon as they see your eyes light up.

^ This, is the best post I've seen all day. You won my happiness. Imagine, picking up the wallet, quickly scanning the pub key, oh look 5$ in there, you import priv key, 5$ gone...

That may become a true story lol.

The whole hahah gotcha bitch prank.

[InwardContour]

Probably not, if they would be common coins I would go away and let someone else pick them up.

[Possum577]

Only if it was minted Casascius by Mike Caldwell!

Casascius coins are a beautiful and rare mint...

This could be a good bitcoin promotion 

[foozewol]

Yes why not, then I would give them to a friend of my son as a present.

$0.0072?  Probably not.  I generally don't pick up U.S. pennies that I find on the ground, and that's less than a U.S. penny.
