2122  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [Poll] What lower denominations for BTCC Mint coins? on: August 04, 2016, 12:17:37 AM
I voted for 3 options, 0.1BTC, 0.25BTC, and 0.5BTC.

After reading TheNewAnons comment in the other thread, a set of 5 coins, presented in something luxurious, would be the my top choice, if it was available. Going in denominations from 0.01BTC ( or similar ) to 0.5BTC. This will leave the set open to people who just cannot afford to spend 6BTC on one of your 5BTC coins. I would love one, but feel that it is a lot of BTC to tie up in one coin.

Thanks for asking for our opinions Bobby Smiley


How much in BTC premium are you (or others) willing to pay for such an arrangement?

the reason we're able to make the 5-set of the Five Bitcoin so nice (nice large coin in Titanium, nice big wooden box, and full packaging experience) is because of the relatively large premium we're charging.

If customers cannot afford to pay a premium, then it won't justify the custom molds and limited runs.

So help us do the math:  what denominations, and what total price?
(I have a feeling that if we do make this, people will complain that whatever we eventually charge is too high...  What do you think?)

thanks,
Bobby


Thanks for your response Bobby, and for taking my comment into consideration.

Lets go through some figures, and see what you think.

0.01BTC, 0.05BTC, 0.1BTC, 0.25BTC, and 0.5BTC = 0.91BTC in Titanium coins ( example).

Have you considered any other metals besides Titanium for your coins? Silver for example? I feel gold/platinum - suggested by others - should be exclusive to one high value coin.

That is my personal opinion - I do not have the pockets that some others do Wink

If this was presented in something similar to this ( or even nicer?? Cheesy ): Luckybit - I would personally be prepared to pay a premium of 50-60% for it.. You can add the value of any precious metal to that. ( edit 3: scrap that, no precious metal )
I feel that the price would be worth it, but again, I speak for myself only.

If you were to produce, say 100 sets, is that feasible to you, costwise?
If not, what about 250 sets? Anymore than this would, imo, would take away any exclusiveness of such an item.

We collectors love something like this. We also love the chance for our thoughts to be considered, so thank you.

Zepher

Edit: All in all, for a numbered set, in 999 silver Titanium, with those denominations.. what about 1.7BTC ( 100 sets )?

Edit 2: Okay, no Silver, for customs etc. Are Titanium Coins an option for you in smaller sizes? ( what about other metals? )

I have edited this post ( around 10 ) times as different things come to mind Cheesy

2125  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [Ideas] What's next for BTCC Mint? on: August 03, 2016, 05:41:13 PM
I've cast my vote and I'd love to see a 5 coin set of the lower denominations.

For example a 0.01 btc, 0.05 btc, 0.1 btc, 0.25 btc and 0.5 btc coin in a wooden box (just like the 5x5 btc set). Titanium bars (for example 1 BTC) would be cool as well.

Now THAT would be awesome. I second this fantastic idea.
A low denomination, numbered, 5 coin set is something that I think would go down extremely well.

Thanks

This is just my opinion, feel free to take it as you wish.

These are not worth $10 each, and everyone knows that. You are going to have a lot of unhappy people soon.
You should have really got a few produced, so people could see exactly what they were buying, before you started taking payment for these "coins".
As mj has pointed out, these seem very rough, I do not expect a hologram to even stick on them. He also raises some other good points, so I won't bother repeating them..

I'm sorry, but imo, these are terrible Sad I am glad I didn't get involved.

Please understand that this is NOT a jab at you personally, but I would be severely pissed if I spent $10 each on these.

Thanks

Closing this out and just selling some gold bars.  Will put these on a shelf and maybe my kids will find some day and know what they are.


Thanks everyone for considering.

Best,

A very good decision under current circumstances woodson.

Sell some gold instead. It is a better idea atm.

Who buys Coinographic coins btw? They are the worst coin makers in history.
Also buying a scammer's coin...... nah man I ain't that autistic!

I personally think Coinographic made some lovely coins.
This doesn't mean that the guy isn't a criminal though..

Yes, he ultimately scammed everyone that bought coins from him - but those "raided" coins are turning into a collectors item of their own now Wink

As unfortunate as the events surrounding him are - Coinographic will go down in Bitcoin History because of it Wink

+1 on that. I totally want one & that's only because the maker did what he did. Smiley

That is the exact reason I am collecting them as well.

No idea whether they'll be worth anything one day...

But, I want them anyway! Grin ( now now, funded coin sellers, don't go having the same idea as Mr Hamilton.. I might just send Lutpin after you )

2134  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [WTT] The Bitcoin Penny Company Doodle / Sketch Collection on: August 02, 2016, 01:24:18 PM

LOL awesome. It looks like someone else's sig and doodle though? ... Chris, do you have a secret helper? Cheesy

Sorry for the late reply. I've been out of town for most of the last month. Back for today, then off again to NY until August 10. What a busy month! Anyway... Smiley

That's not one of my / our (The Bitcoin Penny Company) doodles. I believe Zepher doodled that one. I like how he added the arrows to over-explain the obvious. That's my doodle trademark. Wink

Regards,
Chris

Hey Chris,

Yes, I admit, I stole your trademark arrows Roll Eyes
But... I am not trying to steal your doodles ( took me long enough to do this one... ). This is edition 1 of 1 only!!
There will be no more thievery from me Grin

It took me 2 days and I went through about 20 pieces of card to get this right.

Welcome to my world. It gets easier...eventually. After your first thousand doodles, you'll only ruin half your cards. LOL Wink

Regards,
Chris

Ahahaha Cheesy

Your doodles are authentic..
That is, ummm, not a doodle for the sheer reason that it took me way too long to complete.

I don't really know what to label that as..
Besides a cheap imitation Grin
2135  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] 1.25K moissanite white gold ring 1,800$ on: August 02, 2016, 12:44:45 PM
Got an engagement ring that I need to get rid of.





Your post is missing some very crucial details, without which, you will struggle to find a buyer.

Namely, am I correct in assuming you meant the size of the gemstone is 1.25ct?

What karat weight of gold has this stone been set into? 9k/14k/18k?

Do you have any certificates that indicate that this is genuine moissanite or lab created? This HUGELY impacts the value.
If this is lab created, you will have a problem getting much more than the gold value for it.

Genuine Moissanite is a naturally occuring gemstone that is derived mainly of silicon carbide. It is very rare to find.
The majority of Moissanite seen on the market is synthetic, and produced in laboratories.
It is used in engagement rings as a much cheaper alternative to diamonds.
Moissanite generally has more brilliance to it than the average diamond, as it has higher optical properties. For someone who would like a gemstone that looks like a diamond, yet cannot afford one, Moissanite is an option to go for.

It has similar thermal conductivity to diamond, making them useful as a much cheaper replacement to diamonds in industry.

To the untrained eye, these appear to be diamonds. There are a few ways to tell them apart though. Firstly, the hardness of the mineral.

Moissanite is a very hard substance, measuring 9.5 on the MOHS Scale - Diamonds are 10 on the MOHS Scale; this is the hardest substance known to man.
You can purchase diamond testers, which check the hardness of a gemstone to help distinguish whether a suspect stone is genuine or not.

Moissanite is reactive to high heat, and will start to turn orange after being heated to around 150 degress Fahrenheit. This is another way to distinguish one apart from something else entirely.

Anyway, the chances of this being a genuine moissanite, instead of one created in a lab, are extremely slim unless you can provide some papers.

Thanks,

Zepher
2136  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [AUCTION] Rare extra-large Bitcoin Block from BTCC Mint, w/ 26+ BTC, NO RESERVE! on: August 02, 2016, 11:03:05 AM

Bitcoin Block, 2016 N Series:
- 93 Titanium blocks
- 1 Error block, double funding (blocks 418419 and 418427)
Total made: 94

Bitcoin Block, 2015 N Series:
- These were all mined in December of 2015, but saved until now, to make into Bitcoin Blocks
Total made: 16

thanks,
Bobby

What's happening with the error block?
Are the 2015 N blocks going to be sold?  (Bars labeled as 2015?)

Also, when are the 12.5 blocks gonna be made/sold?


We may sell the error block later, via auction.

The 2015 N Blocks will also be sold soon.  Yes, the bars are indeed labeled as 2015. 
They're already made, but we haven't had time yet to properly photograph them.  We'll add them to store ASAP, but they will carry a slight premium over the 2016 N blocks.

12.5 blocks will also be sold, probably starting in early August.

thanks,
Bobby




We will auction the 2016 error block (double funded from blocks 418419 and 418427) if there is enough interest.

The bidding will start at BTC60 (increments of BTC0.1) if there are at least 5 people interested in this auction.

Let me know!

thanks,
Bobby

Wow Shocked

You mind giving some time to rob some banks? Or remortgage the house?!

Great work on your coins and blocks Bobby! I received my BTCC coin a week ago, and I must say I am extremely happy with it.

Thanks Smiley
