So I have to create an airgapped system which I will look into, and I might
have some more questions further along in my learning.
For my laptop...I took apart and removed the wifi card just to be sure  |

Here is the link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5292596.0 If your ever in NYC....you can stop by for some breakfast at my nearby restaurant where I meet all crypto travellers coming thru the city and bring your air gapped computer...I will lend you my Mycelium entropy and while we have breakfast you can generate as many keys as you want. Any chance you have an extra entropy device to sell? They are not only useful but also a collectable for me....if I come across another will keep you in mind |

I see a potential product out of this 3d printed art.
Indeed I agree....they look so colorful the variations I can make are endless as well. These are loaded with BTC and also there is an NFT inside as well.  Dig em. These would look pretty cool on poker chips.
Thanks and yes they would...but I could not find anyone to make poker chips to accomodate my 2" holograms. All are cool. I'll take the set  I think I like the bottom left corner best (orange pill color with the shadow black on the face). ' Steeley Thanks bro....yes the orange and black mix well. Was supposed to also do a blue/black black/blue variation as well...thats i the works as well. |

Below a series of questions, feel free to answer all or only part ...
1. When you bought your first crypto collectibles? [What "triggered the spark"
?]
Had the collecting bug as a child with stamps…the one day in 2013 I came across an article about Bitcoin and after searching on the net came across Casascius….the rest is history. The idea of Bitcoin and a physical collectable was irresistible to me and thus my journey into the rabbit hole started.
2. What did you love about this sector?
[What excites you more about this kind of objects?]
The idea a novel idea like Bitcoin and it being integrated into a physical “body” that can increase and decrease in price, that is unique and having the representation of physical and digital in one place.
3. What future do you see in this kind of collection? [Will there be an expansion based on the largest number of users who approach crypto currencies?]
Our hobby is all based on trust, without the trust of the makers our hobby will be shunned. Many people look at us and probably shake their heads on the amount of money some of the loaded collectables hodl and the amount of trust needed to not lose any sleep at night knowing that your Bitcoin can be lost.
If I am not mistaken in past threads people couldn’t grasp on why physical Bitcoin was ever needed when it was contradicting the digital aspect of Bitcoin.
Regardless, I love this hobby and also the many other fellow collectors I have met and made friends with who share the same passion for these as I do.
4. What do you think are the objects or types of objects that will have a greater interest or revaluation in the future? [Coins? Drawings? Stamps?]
There are collectors for all types of items….each will find their own nich in the collectable community…time will be the judge on what will be most sought after. I have a feeling the rarity novelty of an item will be key…as time goes on what is not sought after today can be the most sought after tomorrow….I am mean look at NFTs! Who saw that coming? I didn’t for sure.
My favorite quote that I use under my Avatar is, The Stone the masons rejected was the cornerstone. a shortened quote meaning the item people ignored turned out to be the most important one after all.
5. What advice would you give to those who are entering this sector for the first time?
Do your homework on whats out there…read the thread about breached coins and scams…too many seller have sodl coins that are on that list without making them aware of the issues presented in the past. Also ask and find some OGs that have been around for some time for their advice and of course read the many threads we have posted thru the years. I can only wish they were available to me when I started…I would not have had to learn from my own mistakes….learn from other peoples mistakes!
6. Can you post your collection item that you think deserves more attention? [The rarest, the purchase you dreamed of, the one you are most fond of?]
That’s a great question! When I collected stamps, the ones I always wanted were the very first stamps issued from each country, or for that matter, the 1840 Black Penny GB stamp being the very first in the world. Not that I could have afforded any at the time.
That being said, when I entered this rabbit hole in 2013 I hadn’t dreamed of looking any further as I left for awhile…but when I came back and saw the many created thru the years I did some research and sought who was the first to come out with the first physical Bitcoin collectable…and that’s where I came across Bitbills.
Issues in May 9th 2011, months before Mike Caldwells Casascius coin, they were the first and to me, first is the biggest part of history. Many are not into loaded cards but only coins but for me it doesn’t matter at all, its who issued the first and that trophy belongs to Bitbills.
And for the longest time many people I know ignored…sodl or really didn’t care that much for them, and thus that is why I wear that motto The Stone the masons rejected was the cornerstone in reference to Bitbills.
7. What do you think could be the “holy grail” of collecting bitcoin/crypto objects?
To me its my Bitbills collection and proof sheets and other items used in the nascent of Bitbills.
8. Do you think it's a hobby "for the rich" or can it be started by "penniless" collectors as well?
Really like this question….As BTC price keeps on going up, our collectables will be way out of reach for may, but there are still micro loaded coins that are within reach of many should they wish to join.
9. What do you think about the dilemma of those who buy items paid for in bitcoin rather than keep bitcoins themselves? [It is the exact opposite of what happens in classic collecting where an inflationary system favors the long-term hodler...]
Another great question that I solved for myself years ago.
I had bought an item for say $200 and the seller regretted paying for it 6 BTC back in 2012. This kinda haunted me a bit since down the line the same dilemma would eventually happen to me as well.
So the way I resolved it in my head was, I had x amount of BTC to HODL.
Any collectable items bought I bought new BTC that I wasn’t planning on buying at all but in this case it was for a collectable, so that somehow gave me peace of mind.
10. Observations / comments / ask yourself a question and give an answer.... more...
Special questions for creators / artists
11. What inspires you the most in creating objects in this sector?
Am I creator? I guess you might say I am for the items I have made and am planning to as well.
My main inspiration beside the genius behind Bitcoin and its revolutionary properties is the fact this anonymous person we call Satoshi Nakomoto invented Bitcoin and just walked away without enriching himself like most humans would have done. The fact that he did it for the better of mankind/altruistic reasons is a very big factor indeed.
12. Which is the creation you are most attached to from an emotional point of view?
My trademark and what it represents.
13. Besides being a creator of collectibles, are you also a collector?
Very much so, this is my passion, that when life throws its worst at you, is what keeps me going.
14. What do you think is the future for this sector?
When I joined the collectables in 2017 and up to a few years later this place was on fire….nowadays it has really slowed down quite a lot. My feeling is many have taken their interest into NFTs.
