First, it needs a name so that you can market the idea more effectively. The first thing that came to my mind is this:

Bitcoin Trumpet or BitcoinTrumpet at bitcointrumpet.com

In my opinion, your overall idea is sound, put readers may be turned off by it, nonetheless. Reason? The first two words in you post is a put-off. Why, you may ask (and if you did ask yourself why, mentally, then I feel we have a deeper problem)? Spelling and grammar.

Thanks for the name. My writing is poor and now it should be better organized.

My friends already know.  Me giving them Bitcoins would look like desperation.  Some have said that I would help Bitcoin succeed because it will make the ones I own more valuable.  How about we just use Bitcoins to buy Christmas gifts?

Buying gifts using Bitcoin certainly help Bitcoin economy, but your friends may not know it and they are not interested.

How do you give Bitcoin to them and do they spend all of Bitcoin? I would say that most of friends ignore Bitcoin except some geeks because most think it is too complicated. So I would like to make everything simple to maximize the friends to try Bitcoin. The plan is to guide them to instawallet and send Bitcoin to them, and then ask them to spread to other friends or make donation.

Another part of the campaign is to ask friends to spread Bitcoin to their friends, i.e. to propagate it to one further layer. If my friend of friend is also your friend of friend, this co-occurrence in the same date will greatly raise their interest to get Bitcoin from us. This collative behaviour is what I want to create.


There you go, bud. Still far from perfect, but improved, nonetheless. Feel free to register that domain. It's a gift.


I am not sure how to register a domain, and I dont know what other contents I want to add.
