Title: Re: (Bounty) .5 BTC for link of high res photo of the CASASCIUS gold coin 1000btc Post by: mcorlett on April 20, 2012, 04:22:28 PM Here's a list:

How can it be? Title: Re: (Bounty) .5 BTC for link of high res photo of the CASASCIUS gold coin 1000btc Post by: Sukrim on April 21, 2012, 02:52:09 AM EFF doesn't have an option to donate by Bitcoin? They had, but took it down as it isn't sure whether BTC is money or not. EFF might in the future need to defend Bitcoin users and it would look weird if they'd accept donations in Bitcoin themselves.How can it be? You can donate to Wikileaks too, but I guess any charity out there will sooner or later need to convert the BTC back to USD/EUR/...

I believe I have this in a bit higher res as well... Also, a third one is in the wild, just not yet funded due to being in transit. Title: Re: (Bounty) .5 BTC for link of high res photo of the CASASCIUS gold coin 1000btc Post by: casascius on April 21, 2012, 05:16:20 AM How many did you make? Thanks. They get minted in small batches so I don't have to store them. The mint is local, so a 3 business day lead time is enough time to make sure I can get a coin in after an order is placed. That might also raise a question about how I price it. I am locked in on the gold price for about 50 coins, hence why I have a reserve price: it wouldn't make sense to go pick up a coin to sell it at a loss when I believe that holding the gold is a good investment. Title: Re: (Bounty) .5 BTC for link of high res photo of the CASASCIUS gold coin 1000btc Post by: casascius on April 21, 2012, 05:32:46 AM i love the coin but think gold is going down. hard for me to pay that much over spot. if gold goes back up, ill be very interested. thanks If you got one, where would it need to go? I assume Asia?

25btc=you asked for change, we gave you coins 10btc silver =bitcoin, an idea too big too fail (or something like that) I've got 12 series 1 1BTC coins, 2 series 2 1BTC, and one each of the 5, 25, and 10 BTC coins. Oh, and a bearer bar. They look cool with my bitbill set. We shall see if the lovebitcoins.org cards look good in the mix shortly.

I think they are actually developing the technologies to create an arch for the human race to leave the Earth. The are for example researching asteroid shields and Nanoshields (apparently to target microscopic ecophagic replicators whatever they are).
Maybe I should donate to the charity as well, it's like reading a science fiction novel :D |
