Hello All,

A few months ago we asked the bitcoin community on this very forum, Which famous historical figures we should honor next and feature on the next physical bitcoin coin?

The ideas and votes came in and the the winners where Tesla and Shakespeare.

Infinitum Bitcoins recently launched two of the winners from the last vote both 1 Oz proof quality pure silver coins bringing the collection to a total of four coins.

The range consists of beautiful proof quality coins made using pure fine silver featuring genius historical figures such as Leonardo Da Vinci, Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla and William Shakespeare.

Now we need to decide who is next :)

So, again it's up to you, the beloved bitcoiner's and backbone of the bitcoin revolution to place your ideas forward to be heard. We at Infinitum makes for the finest physical bitcoins will honor your greatest genius of all time.

The criteria is simply, It can be anyone who has made their mark on history and is classed as genius in their own right.  Male or female anyone from any era.

So give us your ideas or vote on each others ideas.

I am just not a big fan of Edison.  The things he did to show AC current was dangerous and DC was safe was insane... Such propaganda, I hate that POS.

my favorite:

- Claude Shannon is considered by many to be the father of mathematical cryptography

other suggestions:

- Alexander Graham Bell
- Samuel Morse
- Confucius

or make duo-coin with Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee  ;D

I would definitely add a +1 to Newton.

Also, Alan Turing would be a good candidate.

Max Planck and/or Edwin Hubble could be ideas if you want to go the space route...

Oh, and by the way, a Neil Degrasse Tyson coin is a must ;)

Hello All.

Great feedback and response.

We have been discussing your suggestion internally and Alec Johns has suggested that we switch to a new theme like old famous move stars of yesterday the likes of Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Audrey Hepburn, Charlie Chaplin and others of that ere, people who where the first major stars on a global level.

It's a different direction to the Ingenium / Genius coin range and we would start an entire new series.

Tell us what you think...

And if we should change theme or stick with the genius theme for now.

Regards,

Mandy

Please make a coin with Barack Obama and the quote "a swiss bank account in your pocket".  It would be a good way to honor his last year as president and also to memorialize a stupid quote that he made last week which is a great analogy to Bitcoin.  http://gizmodo.com/obama-just-made-his-dumbest-comments-on-encryption-yet-1764388286
