I did the following at first because it was something that made me laugh, but then again it wasn't all that stupid either...I think.
The project I'm working on involves music and tokens. Basically, musicians get some tokens when they join our project. Others have also received these tokens by answering the quizzes I've posted on a couple of sites. These tokens represent a portion of our profits, if or when there ever is one. In other words, if there's a profit we can send bitcoin to the token holders.
When I've held the mentioned quizzes on r/music on Reddit. There were several users that got the quiz right, however, none who were interested in the prize. To put it into their words “they didn't have a bitcoin account”. Even with my delightful explanation that it's as simple as downloading an app, it just seemed like a bit too much bother. But all in all they enjoyed the trivia. One user said I could donate the prize to charity, so that's what I've done.
There are several projects out there that accepts bitcoin donations. The projects I've chosen to send tokens to are ones that have a static donation address on their site:
- * The Pirate Bay
* GIMP
* VideoLan (VLC)
* The Water Project
So, the next time you add one of our songs to your playlist you'll know that The Pirate Bay might be getting a tiny bit of that streaming revenue. Pretty cool! Or maybe kind of messed up?
