Just wrapped up the reformatting this evening. I'll have a pdf ready within a few hours. I'll message anyone who has expressed an interest on here, if you haven't pop me a message

My trade is small enough I'll let it ride with a trailing stop. Still think it could have legs with Greece ect...

Barely a quarter of my order got filled, but ridiculous timing I know :-/ Oh well, better than not being in it! Seemed like ltc just caught up with btc's for now.

I'm going long litecoin around these levels for the first time in a long time. Let's see how it plays out!

yeah, weekend and US holiday- but Greek referendum tomorrow, which has potential to impact market mood. Look forward to watching your videos.

Small announcement guys: I've decided to take pre-orders for those interested in the new run of bars. This is a slight change to how I have processed orders in the past (I have never taken preorders).
Previously I have taken names down in a reserve list- which is fine, but the bonus from taking preorders is that I can add to the manufacture order before it ships and prevent running out of bars- as has happened due to popularity in the past. It also has the added advantage of meaning I can package all orders as soon as I receive the new bars and get it out to you guys sooner. You have waited long enough and I truly appreciate your patience with this.

And it is because I value your patience that any preorder will get an extra gift as a special thank you.

If you have previously reserved a bar there is nothing you need to do- I will contact you. If you have not previously contacted me to reserve a bar, then pop me a message or post here and I will get in contact with you.

So to clarify- if you have reserved a bar, regardless if you preorder or not you have a bar reserved. This is a point of integrity and about keeping my word- these are already being manufactured (I have sent payment for them already).

As a special thank you, anyone who preorders and makes payment will receive a cool extra gift with their bar/s

Cheers! Have a nice weekend all! I will be around to answer questions for 20 minutes or so from now then I will reply to all messages tomorrow evening (around the same time as now).

It wouldn't make any difference really- due to the limited run there unfortunately aren't any economies of scale to take advantage of! Otherwise I would happily offer a choice.

Thanks Mitchell! That settles it. I'll continue to include both.

Hey guys, I'm thinking of just doing this run with InkJet labels, since laser printers are less common for personal use.

Thoughts? I'd love to hear a few before I go ahead and order.

Thanks!

Maybe everywhere in the media we consume- I think at most a passing article on many mainstream outlets.

What verification process do you mean? I touch on dimensions and measurements, communicating specifics of materials and aesthetics to manufacturers and I also write a little about indicating purity of precious metals. If you mean the due diligence and checkboxes you need to tick for a coin project- then yes it does. But this can be relative. I have written in depth about my processes, you can use the same or modify them as you see fit!

Well if you are demonstrating that the large disparity indicates unsustainable decadence and exploitation in the upper echelons of power then I agree.

Been crazy hot here in Amsterdam lately! Finishing up the print/pdf version, hopefully it will be available some time next week

So am I misunderstanding this or is it advocating more tax on the wealthy? I'm not so convinced that this is a panacea to our social and economic ails. I do suspect that many of the wealthy would not be able to retain their immense material gain without the power of the state to rely upon. But perhaps this is not borne out in reality and stifling institutions develop and disintegrate naturally over time. Humans are selfish as a matter of course (perhaps my western bias shows here?), it's my hope that an information age will empower the masses to dissolve the myriad economies of scale that 'oppress' them. Perhaps that is too idyllic though- for the drudge can make an honour of slavery by bowing to and praising his oppressors.

The more I think about it, the more I wish a middle line was walked with governments not overstepping solid bounds. But as a favourite author of mine wrote "Tyranny exists because the weak and the powerful seek it". /rant

Come on bit1. The mark of the beast is on hand or head and you're unable to buy or sell without it. No one knows or cares about bitcoin (at lesat in terms of the great unwashed). The mark of the beast is likely to be a one world currency as the thread you linked from.

Seems like a cool topic- look forward to reading more!

I hope you're right Hyena. Ready to get on the train rocket moon ride! Or something to that effect...

Just an update- I'm struggling to find appropriately sized labels as there is a size difference. I've found some that will work so I can now finally order the next (and probably final) run of bars.

I have a list of those interested in pure silver- please pop me a message if you are interested in the plated version and I will make sure the run has enough for everyone.

Thanks!

I haven't heard about Greeks buying btc- most of those outside atms are probably pensioners wanting to get out what little they have in there. I'm sure that some Greeks must be, I find it hard to believe that they are the source of the rally though.

Maybe we should put one on a tram track instead?

Wanted to chime in on the thread too- this is a great idea for a coin, super cool!
