Title: [EBAY AUCTION] The Times, October 31st 2008 Newspaper & Jan 3 2019 10 year Post by: frankbitcoin on June 30, 2020, 01:27:32 AM The Times newspaper, dated the original date of the Bitcoin whitepaper, October 31st, 2008. While there's no mention of Bitcoin in the article, I still found it to be a neat collectible for Bitcoin lovers. I have one and am auctioning the other on Ebay. Includes box and certificate of authenticity
Starts at $.99, no reserve https://www.ebay.com/itm/264780302634 (https://www.ebay.com/itm/264780302634) Also have a 10-year anniversary paper of The Times. a bit crinkled, please see the pics: https://www.ebay.com/itm/264780346176 (https://www.ebay.com/itm/264780346176) Title: Re: [EBAY AUCTION] The Times, October 31st 2008 Newspaper & Jan 3 2019 10 year Post by: houseo on June 30, 2020, 12:34:39 PM what have oct 31, 2008 papers gone for in the past?

I have NEVER heard of this item as a bitcoin collectible. I'm guessing this will confuse some newbie into thinking it's highly sought after like the 01/03/09 Times.

I have NEVER heard of this item as a bitcoin collectible. I'm guessing this will confuse some newbie into thinking it's highly sought after like the 01/03/09 Times. Just thought it would be interesting to have a 'The Times" released on the same date that the original whitepaper was released, that's all. Still a neat piece of history if you coincide that date with other artifacts. But that's just my personal opinion. I even have a Dallas Cowboys newspaper article from January 3rd, 2009. Simply because that's the date The Times had the article. No relevance, and it's not for sale. But personally I like collecting things based on this. I don't think there's any confusion to be made. The pictures show clearly it is not The Times from January 3rd, 2009 Title: Re: [EBAY AUCTION] The Times, October 31st 2008 Newspaper & Jan 3 2019 10 year Post by: gentlemand on July 01, 2020, 08:21:27 AM It's a free market but that smacks of preying on naivety a bit however it's a neat hook. I may auction the bed I was sleeping in on October 31st 2008 and see what happens. It has a Bitcoin pillow now.
