announcement: the international "when-bitcoin-reaches 1000,- $ party"

[NewLiberty]

If partner is allowed, there will be ALOT of gay people if guess.

that i exactly the problem. no, don´t get me wrong: no problem with gay at all ( ), but they will be a lot of people pretending if they could save $ 1000 this way. it will get very swampy if we go in this direction. in addition , it would cut the budget 50% since we would have to plan everything for the double number of attendants.

Is there no savings for shared accommodations, hostesses, transportation and such?  Maybe a half rate or something, or whatever makes sense, but it may not be a 1 or 0 decision.
Rumor has it, bitcoin is divisible.

I know I said I would be coming but this is going to be hard on the timing of this event for me.

Especially since I live in Hawaii...it is literally half-way around the world.

Somebody mentioned donating to charity, so we don't look like douchebags (I don't mind looking like a douchebag, but whatever). One suggestion is to have Bitcoin100 set up a separate bitcoin address specifically for this party, and then when all the donation money is collected and counted, donate it all, split evenly between all the charities Bitcoin100 has donated to already. It would go to charity, and it would be another thanks for all those charities that supported Bitcoin from the beginning (you can find the list of charities so far on bitcoin100.org). Plus it would spare us from having to vote on, pick,and approach some specific charity. Call it a "rich douchebag tax" for partying too hard.

Spicing it up a little, if the Tutu Project doesn't accept my 10 BTC donation before the Party, I'll donate directly to the Bitcoin100 (wearing a pink Tutu at the party, of course) Funds should then go evenly to all the charities, I guess we can sort something out.

Between Rassah stripping and qwk in a tutu, i suggest we donate to the "Tickets For Hot Chicks Without Cash Foundation".

February 9, 2014 - To celebrate three years of bitcoin-dollar parity! How it felt like an achievement at the time.

Going, +1

Can't wait!

Convinced my hubby (told him he doesn't have a choice), so I'm going too. Will take a week traveling around Germany first, then finish the weekend with the party.

Bitcoin is at $ 900 on bitstamp.

I can't wait.... If it gets to 1k again I'll open up a bottle of champagne.
I will anyway for my birthday party which is in a few days. I really hope the two things coincide.


The way things are going BTC may beat my birthday though...

What is the total number of tickets sold as of yet?

So, I was thinking that my friend is a small-time DJ, and keeps up with the latest music artists out there, though mostly in the electronica genre, and that he would be a good resource for ideas for whom to get to perform at this thing, as well as maybe help get them, but then I remembered that my best friend from Kiev, Ukraine, is the owner of http://karabas.com, which is the biggest concert ticket sales company that side of the berlin wall (It's basically the Ticketmaster of Eastern Europe. Or is trying to be). He was even featured recently in a Forbes article. So, he has some rather high level contacts, including with some of the world's top performers, and can probably help out white a bit in getting whoever the hell we want. He also said he may be able to help with getting us tallent (I asked already). If you approve, should we hire him as our tallent agent?

Also, I know bitcoin won't be $1,000 for many months more (probably not until next week, anyway), but should we set up some sort of a poll or gather suggestions for whom people want?

Well done rassah!
