If you come to the bitcointalk collectibles board you'll find fair prices and knowledgeable people.. go to that bullshit times website or eBay and you're going to find hyperinflated prices that are unrealistic. You can hold onto this and hope billionaires that do no research and like throwing their weight around find your thread but in the meantime take the advice of some of the members here if you want to sell this.

Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

First well done on getting 9!

I own number 10, i used to own Unity and the Black Swan... I was on this forum a lot many years ago - lost the email now - I also have some other smaller coin that he sent me thats somewhere in my house here.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2223623.0

PM me - I was sent #10 as an apology believe it or not in 2016 out of the blue, if i get into my previous account here i have a load of interesting PMs with WoodCollector.

I live in Asia and #10 named, 'Lagniappe' is in my deposit safe in UK (where previous were shipped from when i sold them) - its a 100 BTC on the front and purple wood (not sure name) - very shiny. Not sure but i also remember it being bigger than the other 2.

I will be in UK on 19/2 so gladly send you some photos soon.

Wow - to find this thread as well, i just popped in to see if he was still around! Has smoothie seen this thread Smiley ??

Very exciting. I have sent you a PM but I would like to keep most of this in the public. I am of course very skeptical and have been ready for somebody to approach me with a fake Coin 10 that they have crafted themselves/had made locally by a wood worker. I won't go into the certain things that I would be looking for on the coin but WoodCollector has a few "tells" when it comes to his coins that someone would only know about if they were holding multiples of them. No better person to be able to tell if it is actually his work or not than someone who has nine of them Tongue

First lets start with a definition from wikipedia.
"A lagniappe (/ˈlænjæp/ LAN-yap, /lænˈjæp/ lan-YAP) is "a small gift given to a customer by a merchant at the time of a purchase" (such as a 13th doughnut on purchase of a dozen), or more broadly, "something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure."[2]"

Interesting name for the coin.. WoodCollector definitely used unique/meaningful names for each of his coins. He did say he was going to gift Coin 10 to a forum member of his choosing, 'lagniappe' seems to fit within this scope.
The key to decoding the first part of that puzzle is coin #10 which after much though is being given to someone whom i already chose from this forum. In order to decode each individual wooden coin you will have to have #10 in its physical presence and in order to solve the entire first clue you will need to posses and have all 10 coins in the same physical location.


Now I pose a couple challenges to verify you are actually ukcrypto/litecoinaddict

1. Can you provide a picture on top of this blanket with the most recent block number and last 6 digits of the hash?


2. Can you sign a message from this bitcoin address 125gVqUrFqoa3yo1cBxWuiZZa9UNeFV6JH?

3. In private messages in 2017 you signed one of your replies with "Regards, xxxxxx" assuming your name in place of the x's what would this have been? (Answerable in PM of course) aswell you were working somewhere quite unique at the time of sending Unity/Black Swan to me.


I will add a few questions to this as time goes on, I am reviewing the conversations "we?" had back in 2017 to see if there are other defining questions I can ask that only you would be able to tell/show answers to.

I very much await February 19th and the pictures you can provide! Also the smaller coins that WoodCollector crafted would be pretty neat to see aswell.. not once has anyone mentioned ever having seen one in public or having purchased one.

You of course can provide answers to any of the questions I have posed here or simply tell me to F off Tongue it's up to you to further advance this tale if you'd like and I'm happy you found this thread.

I don't know if this is just a English as a second language thing or if this "investigation" is truly just at a child's level. I was even rethinking the red I left for OP because it seemed like he was leaving the drama alone and going back to what he does best but reading this trash is just wow.. definitely worked yourself up to a ~
304  Other / Meta / Re: Techy should be removed from DT for systematic abuse of his position on: February 03, 2020, 04:03:25 AM
Do I even need to say anything at this point? Is any one else going to tell him he is out of line? This isn't the first time...

Your abuse towards me (and your post above) claims you're a doctor.   Undecided

I'm not out of line at all - posting PMs just because someone won't argue with you is wrong and untrustworthy.

DON'T SAY ANYTHING
- just stop the abuse and forgive.

(Edit:  I forgave teeGumes a while ago...  can you follow an example?)
Nothing to forgive me about Vod. I stuck up for what I believe in and to this day am proud of what I did. Your forgiveness falls on deaf ears because it in itself is mute, unnecessary.
It's interesting watching the intellectuals on the forum argue recently and then have you come into the conversations thinking you have any relevancy left here yelling "ME VOD, ME GUD, TECSHARE BAD, THEYMOS SAY FORGIVE"
An actual bitcointalk joke you're becoming.

We welcome new collectors here.. we embrace them.. every once in awhile a few gems appear out of the rough but every once in awhile a turd like alamjob239 floats up to surface.

This member came out strong as a newbie and many of us tried to protect him in the beginning, we saw some scammers targetting him and we took appropriate action.

A few long time collectors decided to take this guy/gal under their wing and pumped his collection up with cheaper than normal/free collectibles and this member showed their true colors by attempting to flip said items on eBay or Etsy.

Disrespect/forum spam/penny profit/garage sale antics began to take place and it has been noted/articled throughout the various shit-threads started by this member.

The rules broken by the member grow daily. His multiposting has reached a level never seen before. Mods have to babysit on the daily. Every single day, multiple days in a row.

I could keep going and going and going but if you look at alamnob239's post history you'll be able to see for yourself.

Fuck this guy. Fuck his couch. Fuck PayPal. Fuck the color green and the number 12.

Fuck yourself alamjob239 I hope we never cross paths ever again. I embrace newbies but you've made me so skeptical now that I can't trust as I once did.

Poor guy! Give him an another chance.
possible alt of alamjob239.... further investigation to come.
Pretty much confirmed.
No real way to tell who's banned and who's not here is there? If he was banned he waited like 30 seconds to evade.

Impressed me enough - make you my new best friend.  Shocked

Do you only accept btc or will you accept other types of payments. Let me know early so that I can arrange based on your request.





This might be more your speed alamjob239. Go sit at the kids table while the grownups play in Corrosive's auction.

Seriously you are  going after my blanket NOW. The next thing you will try to sniff my underwear.  Your intention is fishy. I am straight.

Leave me alone  I posted what you asked for because I thought it was a valid request.
Sorry but with newbies and red trusted members we require the most recent block and the last 6 digits of the block hash (as I had requested in my previous post). There was plenty of enough time between my request and your newest pictures to have photoshopped your name in gold glitter ink.

You have not "posted what I asked". I have bolded the portion of my post that you have failed to read. You have a tough time following the rules here don't you? Leave your little underwear sniffing jokes elsewhere.. it is not cute nor is it funny.

Also the blanket at the bottom of the picture has changed from purple to a beige color. My mind is just racing whether these are the same cards or not.
311  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [WTT] 24 Hrs Original ether card for ETH on: January 26, 2020, 08:28:32 PM
Hello guys

I have 7 the 1st edition Original Ether cards. The company did not change the design for long time until recently.

PM me if you desire to have one of these beauty,


These seem to be in nice protective top loaders. Definitely in immaculate condition. However I can not tell if they are in your possession. All I see is some gaudy fabric from what may be a really ugly couch or chair cushion?
Please provide your forum name, date, and most recent block with the last 6 digits of the block hash please.
312  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [WTT] 24 Hrs Original ether card for ETH on: January 26, 2020, 08:19:22 PM
Now let me see if I am reading this title correctly.. you are trading these Original Ether Cards for Ethereum?
I know you aren't much for the rules around here but bitcoin is required to be accepted as a form of payment.

Also please post a picture with your name and date with a pen and please have the pen on top of one of the cards possibly scratching them.
313  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [WTT] 24 Hrs Original ether card for ETH like bitbills for BTC on: January 26, 2020, 08:02:48 PM
Every time I see an alamknob239 trade or sales thread I wonder to myself which member gifted them to him. How many times have you been caught taking advantage of others' generosity alam?

that is not your business.

Because Members love me. I am a gifted person. You are a jealous person.

I am busy lowering my inventory, The next huge WTT will be coldkey. Tons of them will be offered by me. I thank to coldkey with my heart and soul.

More papersafe notes are coming different kind.

Tume do not mess up my thread.


Feels pretty bad when someone takes their pants off and shits right in your thread hey?
I'm curious why you wrote "like bitbills" in your title? I told you in a thread previous that this eBay-like clickbait is not required here. You just make yourself look like a scummy eBay seller.

315  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] KeepKey Hardware Wallet - Brand New, Sealed on: January 26, 2020, 04:06:03 AM
This would be understandable if it wasn't sealed, but its still factory sealed with the original packaging and hologram sticker on it. Thats kind of the reason why they put the sticker there to begin with...

With this logic, you couldnt trust any hardware wallet as its touched multiple hands through the mail and would only be valid if you physically picked it up from a manufacturer.
Original packaging has already been proven to be easily recreated. Tamper proof holograms have also been beaten at one of the bitcoin hackers conferences (these outside packaging stickers are far easier to get off clean than say a hologram on a Casascius coin). I'm not saying youre some kind of mastermind i'm just providing a warning for potential buyers. This could be used to store $20 to $50 dollars at a time but I would never trust putting more on a second hand hardware wallet. If you don't understand this then you don't really understand how to properly secure your own keys. If you're going to act as your own bank, its best to take every precaution necessary.
316  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] KeepKey Hardware Wallet - Brand New, Sealed on: January 26, 2020, 03:26:19 AM
As legitimate as this might be it is recommended to NEVER ever buy a hardware wallet from anybody besides the manufacturer. Nothing against you OP.. bu maybe if someone were to want this as a collectible then that should be the only way they buy it. Everyone needs to be 100% sure their hardware wallets are not compromised and buying second hand removes this.
317  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [INFO] What's new, What's trending, What'd I miss? on: January 26, 2020, 03:08:02 AM
Weekend bump.
Coins of Nakamoto and the Bitbills auction take our top position for the time being! Continuously updating through the weekend, some red listed items are going to disappear to make room for new more "obscure" listings.
318  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [WoodCollector]Nine Public Coin Collection Completed on: January 23, 2020, 02:00:15 AM
Thanks so much for the kind welcome! Crazy to see this come full circle (LOL).

So I ran some simple blockchain analysis on Blockchair, I was looking for (and I believe someone in the thread suggested this) 1000 unique outputs holding exactly 5 BTC (that are still spendable) that were created between July 2014 and April 2015 (I arbitrarily figured these dates may be when WoodCarver would have issued his coins), and I got 630-ish results;
https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/outputs?s=value(desc),time(desc)&q=value(500000000),time(2014-07..2015-04),is_spent(false)#
This means he probably didn't create them during this time, or at least not all of them at once.

Then I ran the numbers back to January, now we have plenty of results, about 1300+ 5 BTC outputs that are still spendable.
https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/outputs?s=value(desc),time(desc)&q=value(500000000),time(2014-01..2015-04),is_spent(false)#

I think we can narrow these results to see if maybe a batch of 1000 was created at once, (via script) it seems that would be the way someone would generate 1000 addresses, or no? Or...in essence we're looking at the funding dates of the addresses, not the creation dates. so how would you think someone would fund 1000 addresses? At once? over time?

This is EXACTLY why I went public with this thread, I never even thought about this. Definitely need someone more tech-literate than myself to look into it.
It honestly makes me so happy to see other people get excited about this and share their ideas.. it's often months with nothing but every once in awhile someone with a fresh set of eyes comes along and drops a bombshell idea or new set of information. I absolutely love it.

When I get home to my notes in a few days I'll chime in with some thoughts/ideas with the blockchain analysis stuff and some WoodCollector timeline.
319  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [WoodCollector]Nine Public Coin Collection Completed on: January 21, 2020, 09:23:17 PM
Absolutely fascinating story, than so much for sharing. A friend sent me a link here, glad he did!
Cool piece of Bitcoin history revealed in the thread.
Here's hoping to success!

So here's an idea as far as the need to be physically next to the coins - what if they have embedded NFT chips? You my be able to tap your NFC enabled phone over the coins to see if anything registers. Also loo for invisible inks, blacklight, etc..
A great idea as well. I won't lie I've been slow to get through the many different ideas with finding the clues as I don't want my part in the story of this tale to potentially end.. but you never know if I ever found a number or some letters it'd also be such a good feeling and drive me mad searching for more..

I'm a fan of big round wood things(keep your jokes :p) and I'll be adding one of your FractalEncrypt Bitcoin Full Node Sculptures to the mix.. in a way it will be my temporary coin 10. Such an amazing piece and welcome to the forum.
