Thanks

I like both ideas. 0.001 funding seems collector friendly and still amounts to quite a bit for the rug-pull coin. Also I'd prefer to chop the funds, one winner coin and the rest with a minimal loading amount remaining, gotta agree there with Krogoth and 2stout.


Just because that's the "whole point" for you does not mean it's the whole point for everyone.
Never read "coins must be peeled to determine a winner".

What I do care about is a coin that plays with the scam terminilogy, ideally in different ways (references in design, as well as the loading aspect). However I don't care what everyone does with their coins. Imho you can hodl for 30 years and peel then or peel right away.
Actually I think it's even more fun if everyone decides by themselves. If for example 1/3 of collectors peel and don't find they are the winner, it also becomes more enticing for the remaining to peel. Could be some interesting dynamic.

Haha, I thought something like that would happen. But I mean a 10% loss shouldn't be too bad (not sure about breathing the air, though). Still would love to see some silver.

Oh, just after finishing typing I see Krogoth just pretty much wrote down what I am thinking. : )

Anyway, great work and please continue.

Lot 6, 7: 0.001 each

Okay now! These look amazing, great work! Is this technique also possible with precious metals?
Could imagine it vaporizes too much of the material in the process or some other factors not making clean cuts possible.

Also interested on what's gonna happen with the other coins.
Gosh, the detail and "strength" of these coins is just something new!

Well, ofc you cannot know if the private key correctly corresponds with the public key (QR code on coin) - however there are no known cases of this not being the case.
So you could just scan the QR code and enter the displayed public address into a Bitcoin block explorer, for example: https://blockchair.com/
You would see if there are still "spendable output(s)" available with your balance or if these are swiped. If the explorer cannot find the address it means it was never loaded and thus cannot be found on the blockchain.
All that said, for now I believe there are no known issues with private-key Titan bits.

Yeah, I see where you are coming from, but I stick to my previous post given the sum of "hick-ups" that occured.
As someone said before, it might just be a rogue employee or whatever that compromised a whole project. Not saying it is indeed compromised, but there are some signs that I will not ignore this time. Maybe just oversensitive.

Here is the original thread regarding the swept 2014 eagle: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5231305.msg54367281#msg54367281

If I read it correctly that's not what happened, indeed the funds were swiped twice, once before holo peel and once after refunded. (?)

I own a few bulls and one eagle (first edition, not this new rip-off bs one).
And as much as I hate to speak ill on collectibles that I like (optics / quality), everything that's been going on with coins from their mint leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. Maybe 8 months ago I would have been more relaxed or just figured it was all explainable by some tiny mistakes / inexperience etc.
But with all that's happened this year (yogg, Titan, Betnomi...), it's another project with a bunch of red-flags - I myself and I believe quite a few fellow collectors here have the tendency to ignore these or try to "rationalize" things until it's too late.

tldr: Will stay away from these, too much fishiness going on, haven't decided what to do with the coins in my possesion, probably hodl and pray for now.

I recently was lucky enough to aquire a 0.0025 Bluebits chip (2017).
Now all that's missing to complete a full 4-chip set is the 0.005 bluebits chip.

If you are the owner of one of these and want to sell or trade, please send me a dm.

I would be most happy to make a trade for my 0.0025 (green colored) Bluebits chip  - you missing the green one, me missing the blue one to complete our collection. Would add-on the difference in loading (0.0025 BTC) of course.
If you are interested in a Bitsend 4-chip set instead, also happy to trade this one.

Please dm.

I heard the 0.005 was blue colored but never seen it, so not sure.

While I like the idea of an auction that is timed out when a certain block is reached, it's unfortnatelly quite unpractical. Some auctions might end in the middle of the night or take much longer than expected etc.

That said, cool artworks. Took me a little to probably fully get your comic sequence.
Fight Day has a touch of Bitcoin soft-porn. Haven't seen too much in that regard so far, lol.

So starting bid is just 1 sat? How much is EU shipping and how much for US (to MJ) shipping?

Let's start this off:
Pizza Day 2023 - Nr. 3/10  0.00000255
Fight Day - Nr. 2/10         0.00006969


Oh and one last point, your photos look great but one just fully displaying the card without the need to turn your head 90 degrees to the screen would be cool.

Okay, hab mich mal für die nächsten 5 Solo-Parties nach dem jetzigen miteingebracht.
Hoffe es kommen noch ein paar Leute dazu und wir können mit 45 bald starten...

Schönen Urlaub, Willi.

Ah yes, rookie mistake, of course it's 2.96 x 10^79. Thanks for the correction!
Your explanation for why it's actually 2^256 is quite clear - however to brute force we would still need to go for the full 2^264 route since we cannot know if a phrase would result in a valid checksum, correct? Or are there any ways to determine in advance which combinations to avoid checking at all?

I love that one. Monero logo and mouse lighting the bill on fire - dope art right here.
If you want you can try hosting an auction for some of your original artworks, I would very well be interested as some others most likely, too.
Shoot me a pm if you some notes with Bitcoin or Monero artwork up for direct sale.

There is also one high-res version of the design.

The concept shows a strong Bitcoin pirate protecting a vault and at the same time mixing coins in front of him.

Funky collection. If I find the time this weekend, would like to compile the submitted images into some sort of summary-graphic, just to show the different types for the four elements next to each other.
Ofc if anyone wants to do this in the meantime, feel free!

Oh and that's an insane giveaway, a Builder. 

I am not familiar with this tool, so maybe ththis is a stupid question: Do we know if the Libbitcoin explorer wallet (seed) generation method was utilized by any mobile or desktop wallets?
Or is this just a tool you use similar to a paper-wallet generator and cannot be included as part of code for a wallet project?

That's crazy and tbh "intuitively" I wouldn't have thought it's not possible if you have access to some strong (cloud/super) computing system.
What I really like about this question: it goes to show how INSANELY ASTRONOMICALLY impossible it is, to brute force a 24 word seedphrase if no word is known. If I am not mistaken, we have a wordlist of 2048 words? - That's 2,96^79 combinations, a number 79 digits long!
(nothing new, I know, but still, was fun to remember this)

Exactly that. Design and quality / finish are great. I also very much like to see 2oz of silver.
As everybody seems to agree, the 1000 sats funding is a joke. Sure it proves the point, it's now a crypto collectible, but this is not a 0.5g coin, it's over 60gs - I want a value that at least reflects the precious metal value.
And yes 200€ for a practically unfunded coin is just too much - that very nice looking box doesn't change that fact.

Another week another chance for a custom Ballet wallet!

Thanks again, Krogoth. Appreciate your generous contribution to the collectible community.
And btw - your recommendation is to load these cards with their face amount?

Thanks for the info. This thread was just resurrected from the dead - but I feel it makes more sense to post this here than a new thread.

Is this an automatic update or do you need to re-install and then restore your seed from a previous download?
Haven't used Samurai in a while but it always seemed like decent wallet with some nice features - user interface isn't the prettiest but function over form obviously.
