I think his movie could give bitcoin quite a publicity-boost in certain circles and I also think we should pool some resources to ensure it's being funded (USD 900 (currently about BTC 300) will fund the project)



Idea:



The idea is to pool support of the bitcoin community to fund this film via a "Proxy Contract" on GLBSE called



People buying shares of this issue on GLBSE will in fact be donating money to the production of this film. There will be no (regular) dividends payed and after the film is funded, the shares will likely be worth BTC 0. This is therefore not an investment in the classical sense, in that there will be no return.



Here's the contract:



Quote GLBSE contract: "MAXKEISER.bitcoinfilm"

The issuer of shares of this contract (herein called ISSUER) is molecular on irc.freenode.net, molecular on bitcointalk.org.

This is a "proxy" shareholder contract used for funding a specific Project using bitcoin (bitcoin funding is not possible directly) on PirateMyFilms.com (herein called PMF):

Initially, 300 shares will be issued at a price of BTC 1. Additional shares might be offered subsequently if necessary due to exchange rate fluctuations.

All funds raised through this contract will be used to buy shares of BITCOIN FILM by way of exchanging the raised BTC to USD using a public exchange at market rate. This will be done at irregular intervals based on ISSUERs judgment of future exchange rate and time constraints.

Leftover funds: Should funds be left over because no BITCOIN FILM shares can be bought on PMF or should BITCOIN FILM not be realized as determined by PMF or should anything else happen that results in funds being leftover, the remaining (possibly all) funds will be payed to MAXKEISER.bitcoinfilm shareholders via a dividend at most 7 days after BITCOIN FILM is either produced or it is sure BITCOIN FILM will not be produced and the PMF shares will be refunded (or do not have to be paid in the first place).

ISSUER does not take any fee or any other gain from the raised funds.

All raised funds will either be spent on BITCOIN FILM shares on PMF, or be payed back to (then current) shareholders as dividend.

This contract is subject to alterations by shareholder-accepted motions.

Please after donating, make a post here with the transaction id and a return address. That way I can return leftover funds to the respective donator.



Any funds leftover after trying to return to the respective donators will be given to the bitcoin faucet.



LiteCoin donation address: LQoxjfjJWcWh3pNRVDJmaDHWBLoejju27X (funds to this address will be exchanged to BTC pretty much right away, so I might not be able to give back all LTC)

On the GLBSE cost, I believe it is .5 BTC to create a new asset. Atleast it was in the older post from Nef I read on GLBSE... If you're not excited by the idea of being an early adopter 'now', then you should come back in three or four years and either tell us "Told you it'd never work!" or join what should, by then, be a much more stable and easier-to-use system. - GA

It would be great if Max could make this film. Unfortunately, both GLBSE and PirateMyFilm have cumbersome payment processes.



Can you just post a simple Bitcoin donation address? You are in good standing at this forum. I'm sure there are people who would donate based on your promise to make the funds available to Max's film, yet those same people would not go through the complex processes required to donate via GLBSE or PirateMyFilm.

However, I would send a few btc your way for the cause.

Good idea, the only drawback is that I cannot give people money back in case I cannot funnel the funds towards the film for any of the reasons mentioned in the contract.



Therefore: when you donate to the following address, do post the transaction ID and also a return address here if you want funds back in case I have leftovers.



1GhJ9QpShc9t1jWNgx8DX8nA44GYojHhE3



Any leftovers I cannot give back to the donators will be given to the bitcoin faucet. EDIT: except the donator specifies otherwise to me in PM.



I'm not sure wether I should buy GLBSE shares with the donations or just keep records. Doesn't make much of a difference I guess, at least not until most shares are bought.

Does GLBSE have a way to display shares outstanding from an IPO yet? If so, go ahead and buy the shares and post a link or if they have an api to display it neetly, post that. Will make it a bit more interactive and hopefully save you a little bit of trouble on keeping track. Does GLBSE have a way to display shares outstanding from an IPO yet?

Bad news: fund needed for the project was INCREASED from USD 900 to USD 1.500. I wrote an email to Max about this. Amongst other things, I asked wether we can expect more increases.



Good news: Someone donated BTC 100 to the donation address! Thanks to whoever that was!

It was my first time using the GLBSE and I found the web client straightforward to setup and use. Thanks for the initiative molecular.



I never used any howto when I started using GLBSE couple weeks ago. It's not hard.



I think it might be important to advise to make a backup of the keys and stuff (can be done via the web interface) and to not forget the password.



I searched for a GLBSE howto, but couldn't find any.

Should anyone find one, please post it here.

Also it still isn't confirmed 'officially' but Wikileaks is sending a spokesman + a prerecorded talk by Julian Assange (who wanted to but couldn't for obvious reasons ) molecular, I'll let you in on the fact that funds are very tight, that organising a conference is no easy feat and extremely expensive. Anyway I'm not sure that the PMF guy there is Max Keiser since I remember Mitchell telling me when he was breaking down the costs that we have to pay for some flights. You can't fault that this conference is going to earn us negative money and a lot of effort and time has gone into it to benefit the community.Also it still isn't confirmed 'officially' but Wikileaks is sending a spokesman + a prerecorded talk by Julian Assange (who wanted to but couldn't for obvious reasons
