If you would like more info or images of the bar, please PM me and I shall try to accommodate.

Willing to use escrow and courier for Asia and US. I am UK based so major EU cities and UK for delivery in person is no problem (I like holidays). Courier and escrow to be paid by purchaser.

The starting bid for this bar is 0.15BTC and minimum bidding increments of 0.01BTC.

Auction lasts until 3/1/18 @ 23:59GMT.

Many Thanks

Shame it was funded as the only way to redeem it is to take the price apart.
However, #690 is a great number especially as I know someone who has #691 for sale  ;D
I’m watching this with interest. You’ve got a lot of awesome coins up for sale OP!

Can I ask why you decided to fund these as that kinda kills the premium. I'm sure some collectors might not care (TMAN maybe?), but most that I know of do.

I'll take if I it's easy to unfund.

Why fund it in the first place though? Seems like a waste  :'(

It's not easy to unfund and I believe without some futuristic tech it has to nearly be destroyed for redemption.

Funded as it is diffiuclt to access without destroying.

Didnt realise it kills the premium. Surely the point of the thing is to store bitcoin... and 0.1btc. nevermind.

Look guys, at least it was only .1 and check how much it was worth when it was loaded? something under 30 USD I believe!?  Another cool thing about it IMO, not that I am looking for one funded or not... :P

 :D I was reading this thinking the same thing - I totally get wanting it pristine but sheesh - the thing was made to be a 100,000 bit bitcoin wallet for permanent storage - its not THAT crazy to fund the thing - I had bought a few and I funded one and gave it away as a gift, didn't seem crazy at the time!

I funded a Kialara Labyrinth. As I’ve told others before I see it as like a savings bond of sorts, you can get to it if you want, but you’ll be penalized and better off leaving it be. HODL

I funded an original Kialara before I knew there was a secondary market for physical coins / bars. I thought of it like a long term storage solution same as OP.

Funding Kialara bar is fine if you are to keep them.
They were indeed made as a cold storage but only few people loaded them as if they ever need funds, it means breaking the beautiful bars which is not at all cool.
If you're looking to keep it for long - lets say till 2032 or to give it to you children, then yes - fund them and keep them.

I do understand people funded it cos btc was nothing back then as compared to now but it should be held. I personally never funded a bar myself and do not plan to

Congratulations Chronic!

    As for funding Kialaras, I funded one of my own. This is exactly what Max had in mind when he created these beauties!

    Yes you need to take it apart to get to the digital funds but I funded it with the idea this will never have to get redeemed in any way. The ones funded prior to all the forks began, will become unique and rare in that they are funded with BTC and all the other BTC coins after that!
