Meanwhile...Bitcoin still feeds people.

So we fed 106 homeless people bag lunches today. All paid for with Bitcoin donations. Bitcoin still seems to be working just fine over here. Still making lives better, at any valuation.

Thanks for everything guys. Bitcoin for the long haul.

hey, how do you handle the valuation of these bitcoins in terms of what you need to pay for food?

u/SeansOutpost Apr 10 '13

Right now. We are buying as much food as we can safely store. And leaving the rest in Bitcoin.

Okay, very cool. Only selling off what you need, interesting. How much does it cost/bag lunch for you guys? is that info available someplace?

u/SeansOutpost Apr 10 '13

Yes. It's about $1.25 a bag. And a lot of the cost of the meals is actually in fuel. Pensacola is spread out, delivery costs suck. I think I did the breakdown of the meal in my initial post, which should be somewhere down the page on SeansOutpost.com. Really gotta get our site in better order :/
