we will distribute the leftovers to all who deposited more then 0.1 btc. A total return of 4% of the deposit.
4% ?? Might as well just say, yeah... we're taking everything... *sigh*, thought you were going to be honest. What was your total profit on this site? 20 something btc's?

GAME OVER Dear HonestDoubler Participants.
The project "HonestDoubler" has come to an end. The reasons are:
1) Our automated payment API is broken, we will need a lot of time to fix that. 2) Our balance almost hit zero.
Regarding to our rules, we are only able to process payouts, if there is enough balance. Since our API is broken, payouts are only possible with a huge delay and there is still a risk of doublespend. Under that circumstances, further operating is not possible, we can not accept further deposits => Our balance will hit zero as soon as we start manual payout. So we decided to stop operating, and distribute the leftovers among all unpaid deposits beyond 0.1 btc.
You all were aware of the game and risk, you all were well informed that payout is only possible if there is enough balance which is generated by new deposits only. You all knew that there is no guarantee of payment! Do not blame the highrollers, or anyone else for your losses, because you are the only one who decided to take the risk, and deposit! Regards, HonestDoubler
So, the last remaining bets are being processed right now and we're going to get paid if we weren't the ones who lost during the last day? I'm confused if you are just running away with the coins, or going to pay who needs to be paid...?

I'm confused... so is this a tournament based on hash rates? I have no idea how this "tournament" works, so explain it for a newbie please No, it is not based on hash rates, though that would be an interesting concept! Cryptour functions just like traditional multi-table poker tournaments, except without cards. Score is generated for each entries based on txid and tournament salt. Please check out the section on How Cryptour tournament works for more details. You may wish to try out the first Pilot tournament for only 0.003 BTC. Tournament concluding sometime in a day or so. Ok, I might sound really newbish here because everyone is saying these terms interchangeably and I have no idea what they mean... what is "txid" and "salt"?

So I'm confused... are there no holograms that come with this or is there no need for the hologram? They look very nice though and am thinking of ordering one

Yup. They've taken a very nice and original approach. No idea what future valuations will be but if you find it a satisfying object to own then why not take the plunge? They're not a huge outlay. True, but I believe these coins come without funds... so since I wouldn't know how to go about funding them I'm kinda wary, but idk. I would rather have an "original" coin that will be a lot more valuable than the other made coins.

Usually 0.01 (Single page / JS App) to 0.5 (Multi-page).
Did you mean 0.05 BTC for a multi-page website? 0.01 to 0.5 seems like a big jump. I have a small website idea that I have and if you meant 0.05 BTC instead of 0.5, I might be interested. .5 BTC is not really a big jump, if you want a really well done site that offers a multitude of different features...

Hello. Today I want to tell you, that I am developing modern websites for cheap prices. One of my previous works: http://www.masterskypvp.ml/The prices depend on how long is the work and how big is the site. Usually 0.01 (Single page / JS App) to 0.5 (Multi-page). If you are interested, leave a comment below, and I will PM you. I have been looking for a developer that truly wants to become apart of the website I want to create and also become part of the "core team". I describe all of this in the post I made in project development: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1181358.0

Genius business plan you have here, and the marketing you're doing is incredible.
I wish there was a "like" button on bitcointalk, because I would've liked the f*** out of the comment

Which escrow are you going through?

People will pay an amazing amount for highly rated coins. It's amazing how the difference of a few numbers on grade is HUGE in how much value it has.
Currently there is a good market for coins. People really enjoy them, and I would like to see them get their own thread they are so popular. But in 5-10 years will they hold that value... hard to say.
One of my favorite examples is ball cards people thought they were like gold for a long time. Then one day... they drop to hardly what they were once worth. I knew one person who invested most of his money in them as a hobby he did great... until they dropped.
No one really knows just make sure you don't only invest in one thing is the moral of the story.
But I guess if you think about it... there are the really really rare cards that are of old/legendary players that go for like $100,000 ... maybe these casascius coins will kind of be like that since they were the first ones. Also have you guys looked into Kialara coins? They look really beautiful, and to me they look more expensive than the casascius coins, but I'm not quite sure. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=837501.0

This is going to make me sound like a complete newb, but how do I go about screening them to see if they're legit?
Ok, the only reason why I'm asking is because I feel like I have a really great idea which I explain my idea here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1181358.0I'm trying really hard to get a team together, but nothing is working... is this, in y'alls opinion, just a stupid idea? If so why, and if not please let me know if you are interested.

So is there any way/any website that tells the average price of casascius coins, and/or other coins? I really would like to invest and get a good quality coin to buy, but I have a feeling I need to do a lot more research in these physical coins before I go putting money down on getting one...
Anyways of knowing more about these coins or should I just frequent the Goods and Auctions sections frequently and see what prices they sell for?
|
|
|
Ok... so I started looking more into physical coins and which ones are being sold right now, and I came across certain coins being MS64-70 ... what are these grades and what do they entail?
Thanks for all your answers so far though, helped me understand a bit.

One thing to bear in mind is that every physical coin creator will have handled its private key at some point. That's a big if when it comes to new coins from unknown people.
Ok, so I know what a private key is and everything.. but what do you mean by the bolded text above? Pricing goes into materials, design, forging and shipping so there'll always be a premium over the BTC value. I'm not so sure many of them will be any type of investment but you never know unless it's in retrospect.
So in your opinion, Casascius's coins are the way to go for the best bet of potential profit/return in the future? Do you know how many coins Casascius has made in the past while he was still making them, and how rare is it to see a Casascius coin being sold on the market place?

I will thank the OP for one important thing concerning this thread, he have made it possible to have some money making ideas compile together in one thread and this could be used by anybody even you.
Yeah, but I'm afraid that only the people who just know how to code very well (unlike me) can make any money off of these ideas.. *sigh* , guess it will be nice to see some of these ideas come to life though Everything become easier to those that knows what they want, you can simply hire a coder or a freelancer to get the job done for you. Quick question, is there like a thread that has a list of good coders/devs like the thread that has the list of good escrows to go through? There are two list of honest escrow services providers here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=108716.0 and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=855778 though I read somewhere here that there is a like of coder but I do not have it right now however you can simply create a new thread looking for a coder then you screen them This is going to make me sound like a complete newb, but how do I go about screening them to see if they're legit?

So I've been browsing the marketplace in my spare time when I have nothing else better to do, and I see people selling physical btc, ltc, xmr, et cetera ... and pricing them at a pretty high price. Why is this? Are physical coins going to steadily increase in value over time if cryptocurrencies value increases along with it? The whole concept of physical coins has me a little confused...
Edit: Also, I see that some of these coins are made in valuable metals like gold, silver, copper... then you have some physical coins made with something like plastic... so if you think physical coins are going to be big in the future, does the potential value of the actual make up of the coin like a X2 factor in value?
