I really like the idea of customized awards for the winners of the upcoming community awards ceremony. It gives a very serious tone to the whole thing. I keep wondering how much you paid for that laser engraver and did you purchase it with bitcoin maybe? Grin

If it's not a secret, let me know.

Would be really cool to see the reach of these videos so far, and how many people got inspired to register on Bitcointalk after watching them.
Maybe in the next video, you can mention that new users who registered on the forum, could write an introductory post in this thread just to see how big of an affect it has on people. Maybe some sort of symbolic award can be given to the first 5 or the first 10, or something like that. Copper Memberships maybe. Although, knowing how people are, it would probably be abused.

The laser was around 3500 USD. Funny story: Tried buying with BTC, seller said YES, laughingly. When asking for details they excused themselves, thinking it was a joke. It was in good taste though, as afterwards they started asking about actually adding Bitcoin as a payment option

Events for new members and their stories would be interesting. But I think it's something that need to be thought well and organized somewhere down the road, if/when the reach is greater. But there was one brand new account that posted here, saying they got inspired to register after watching the Youtube video

As for the reach, so far BitcoinTalkShow video thumbnail impressions will probably reach 5k total this week, the click through rate is over 7%.
Views: ~1.3k
Total watch time: ~31h.
IMHO, it's better than personally expected for just starting out with not much promoting outside this section of the forum, but I'm no Youtube expert Cheesy

Second Episode is even better than first one, and I honestly expected to see something like this after watching first teaser video with t-shirts and cool packaging.
It's obvious that you made this video earlier in 2021 so you had to make small corrections later Wink

I have one suggestion for everyone who wants to keep more privacy but still receive their unique reward, just use alternative address, PO boxes or some other mail & package forwarding service.
Congrats to all happy winners (again).

Indeed, as it was pointed out earlier as well, the filming was done in summer. Due to a series of delays, it was published just now.
As for shipment, good suggestion. AFAIK @icopress will compile the list of the awardees that want to claim the prize soon.

I know it would probably be difficult because so many forum members value their anonymity, however, I think it would be interesting for notable forum members to be interviewed. It could be done via google hangouts, or zoom so no one would have to travel.

Yup! It's already in the works. Pretty excited about that.

Still when you search on youtube with "bitcointalk" , our this show no where to be seen yet, even if you search "Bitcoin Talk Show" first video is not from this channel. Yes I know this will improve by time.
Also another small thing I'm sure somone already pointed it too is it "bitcointalk" or "BitcoinTalk"?

IIRC at first only searching "BitcoinTalkShow" would Youtube display any content from there. Search and discovery should improve with time as you said.
As for the name, different capitalization was mostly unintentional AFAIK. However, the name itself is a play on words to bring together Bitcoin, Bitcointalk and Talk show.
