So if you really liked this episode and you're sending bitcoin, instead of sending .01btc (5 dollars), send .010136 (6 cents more) and we'll add it to the tally for this episode. If you're sending LTBcoin (the same address will accept both), instead of sending 1,000LTBc, send 1,136 for the same impact!

After about a month and a half of running sponsor auctions on the forums, I'm pleased to announce the [LTB auctioneer system](http://auction.letstalkbitcoin.com) has been released in its initial highly experimental form thanks to @deweller. You visit [auction.letstalkbitcoin.com](http://auction.letstalkbitcoin.com) or click the Auction option from the page menu and you'll be taken to our Token Auction portal.

Anyone can create an auction - Last night I set up two, each with a minimum bid of 10,000LTBc set up to expire this morning at 7am and each giving one [SPONSOR](http://blockscan.com/assetInfo.aspx?q=SPONSOR) token back. A SPONSOR token can be redeemed (manually for now) to reserve a sponsorship on an available episode of Let's Talk Bitcoin, they don't have to be used immediately and they don't even have to be used by the person who won the auction.

Don't have LTBc? You might want to talk to [BitOfThis Sponsor Brokers](http://www.bitofthis.com/ltb-advertising-broker) who accept Bitcoin and bid on your behalf in LTBc.
