in #bitcoin7 years ago

The guy who held up the "Buy Bitcoin" sign on live TV yesterday is receiving a lot of love from the Bitcoin community. He has already received 4.62 BTC in donations from people around the world! This is how the crypto space works. Do something of value to the network, then it pays you.

Here you can check out his Bitcoin wallet:

In case you have missed the hilarious news yesterday... While the Chair of the Federal Reserve, the American Central Bank, Janet Yellen was speaking to the House Financial Services Committee yesterday, someone held up a sign saying "buy bitcoin". Here's a video of this enjoyable moment:

It's the best advice I've ever heard while watching a video from a central bankster. The timing was also absolutely brilliant. Yellen just started to defend the transparancy of the Fed. Nothing is more transparent than a cryptocurrency with a public blockchain and an open protocol.

Donations

Shortly after this epic moment, people from all over the world began to donate Bitcoin to the guy. Someone even donated a whole Bitcoin worth $2366:

At this moment he has received 4.628 BTC which has a value of $11,060 USD. You earned it dude :)

A hero was born yesterday! Some people even call him the new Bitcoin Jesus, because he sacrificed his career for the sake of Bitcoin. The hilarious moment was broadcasted on live TV and gives a lot of media attention to Bitcoin. The video is going viral and many news media have written about the happening. CNBC tweeted about the buy Bitcoin sign to their 2.7 million followers.

Can we do a similar thing for Steemit? Who can manage to hold a "Join Steemit.com" sign on live TV?

Haha, this is really cool! I also love how it goes to show what a great community the crypto community is when so many people are donating to this guy ;)

This really made my day. The guy is full of energy and optimistic about cryptocurrency. Even he is fearless.

I believe he was an intern and lost his internship as a result. Hardly surprising. His timing was perfect though, just as the news headline was about Yellens opposition to an audit of the Fed!

I'd take the BTC. Interns are slaves

He's got internet fame and a huge chunk in Bitcoin donations, doubt he'll have much trouble with getting employment, fuck the federal reserve.

The fact he lost his internship makes me glad he's getting donations. At first I was like ok big deal but now I'm loving it. Sent some myself.

Well that's one way to get Bitcoin

Hhahahaha, I love it! Threw his career out the window to be a boss! YES! YES! YES!
