Every time I post, the federal agents that are spying on the Bitcoin world tell AUSA Korver and she gives Burt's attorney an earful.
Oh to be a fly on the wall... surely, Korver's at least _heard of_ the First Amendment?

Bumping thread... seems to have lost a little of the early momentum. C'MON YOU GUYS, ante up! A few cents here and there and we can hit this! It's already halfway there (although, yeah, recent BTC price drop hasn't helped IF we are measuring this in fiat value for Zoe's $600 rather than just 2-whole-bitcoins, as the target goal...?) MOST of the recent little transactions on this address have been mine, I believe, as I've just been tossing ten or twenty cents into the kitty via "dust" leftover transactions on my day to day bitcoin wallet's management (I like to keep things to whole-btc numbers if possible, and yeah I know that's kinda anal LOL). Usually I just throw away that dust by fooling around with it in one of the online bitcoin casinos, where you can play blackjack for a fraction of a penny per hand, BUT lately I've been giving it to Zoe here instead. IF some of y'all out there can ALSO start doing something similar? I think we'd hit this goal of 2 BTC in no time. C'mon... KEV

Well, things seem to be losing momentum. Anyone else in the shadows waiting to make their contribution? When do we conclude it's all this vast community can do?

This community is not famous for giving bitcoins away I guess. Probably it would be completed by now if it was DOGE related and posted on /r/dogecoin. I'd say give it another week or 2 and pass on to Zoe whatever there is.

Actually, this community has been very generous in the past, that's why I'm taken aback that after ~40 days we've only amassed ~$254.15 of a mere ~$600 campaign.

I really don't think this whole story has yet gotten the exposure it deserves.
The entire "Cops Take Kid's Piggy Bank In SWAT Raid" thing ought to be it's own story, even totally separate from all the issues re: Burt, bitcoins, MSB licenses, etc etc.
If it got even a little play elsewhere, outside of just this-here BCT thread, I think the $600 donation goal would be hit in a few hours.
Doesn't anyone here have any connections in "the media" to get the story broken out from ONLY bitcoin space?

All right, things have tapered. Last call, folks, to try to restore some faith in humanity in one child's eyes. I was hoping we could get at least halfway (OK, I was hoping for all the way) to restoring what the jackboots stole from her. If everyone that read this punted in 0.01 Bitcoin, we'd be there. Think about it, won't you?
Thanks in advance for your generous contribution!

OK... let's try this. We are currently -- as of block height 357305 -- sitting at 1.2112 BTC - $286.18 at today's prices, or not quite halfway to what was stolen. I hereby pledge to match any now donations 1:1 until we reach $600. Or until the community or family decides enough is enough. So who wants to use my money to leverage their donation? https://blockchain.info/address/1FvX81SxjLLvFymFVDH3Z4LXA87jVU6EaH OK, 2015 Jun 16 update. Stop donating to original address. Any further donations should be sent to https://blockchain.info/address/1KayK9cRSUHXLcs3kjyu1sbcJpUrdsk2Ei, which is a paper wallet that will be given in paper wallet form, along with the cash raised.

I'm not a gambling man. Even when in Vegas. Not even with my own money. Certainly not with somebody else's.

Hi jonald - sorry for the late response. I've not been logging in regularly. The answer is yes - I said I would match up to the time that the total hits the $600 level, and I will. Near as I can tell, that would just about put us there, no? Shall we?

so the goal is $600... let's say I put in .5 and you match...how close would we be? can we get someone else to pitch in the difference? I'd really love to see the goal met.

Jbreher, can you calculate how much we are short of $600 if we get 1 BTC?

Well, at today's price (if you'll excuse the snark), http://lmgtfy.com/?q=600+usd+%3D+btc we'd need a total of 2.6822 BTC. There's currently 1.2580731 BTC in the kitty, adding your half and my half brings us to 2.2580731. We'd need another 0.424469 BTC to hit the goal.

Come on peeps... we can restore justice in one little corner of the universe. who's with me? Your .42 BTC gets 1.42 BTC and we can give the full $600 back to Zoe. How great would that be?

Thanks for reminding me .... Great cause and purpose . I sent 0.20038295 just now. Lets see a couple more contributions to get that remaining .22 BTC from new donors.
