Re: S.DICE - SatoshiDICE 100% Dividend-Paying Asset on MPEx
- BTC related advertisement's. (Yes we all hate ad's, but because Bitcoin is in it's infancy right now it's imperative that we give new business the ability to gain public eye to a community of people more susceptible to seeing value in that business. Extra revenue, along side supporting BTC growth is certainly not a bad thing. I would implore all large and successful Bitcoin companies to implement some sort of unobtrusive advertising block on their site, while allowing them to vet who they deem to be appropriate and charge on the same basis too.
Ads however will never be integrated

Care to elaborate on why ads will never be implimented? I think I've made quite a few fair points as to why they would be a wise move at this stage of Bitcoin development in total. It would help the entire cause.
Yes, could you please clarify about the advertising plan. Based on previous postings, the IPO proceeds have been sequestered for advertising but are awaiting the gambling license before proceeding. The $400k+, based on current exchange rates, of advertising spend will help raise significant awareness for Satoshi Dice and Bitcoin.
For example, from the IPO prospectus it states:
Quote
10% of raised capital will be spent on a high-profile print marketing campaign in European gaming publications.
...
Advertising expenses for SatoshiDICE have been in the $100-$300 range per month. However, after
the new site has been released, the advertising budget will be increased to between $500-$1,000
per month (not including the planned European magazine campaign which will be separately funded
with a portion of the IPO proceeds).
...
However, what can be shared is that SatoshiDICE will maintain strong visible presence throughout
the Bitcoin ecosystem. Further as mentioned, 10% of the raised funding from the IPO [note: 34,500 BTC so 10% is 3,450 BTC] will be
dedicated to a high-profile print media advertising campaign in European publications.
