Being nice and using our prayers/hopes/dreams isn't working. I'm kinda disappointed in the lack of red trust givin to OP.
You'd rather support someone who starts an auction for his joke of a coin collection because hes been a funny/interesting guy in the past... someone who has been in contact with minerjones and arranged an alternate shipping method ( I assume it was to mail all to MJ and he divvy out the coins as per auction wins ) but hasn't happened. ( also could have told MJ about illness/family problems but failed to mention anything wrong )
Show some support to the few names that we don't see in collectibles as much, maybe this was the beginning of it all, to get them hooked into our physical coin collecting. Starts with some silver, ends with some Casascius/Kialaras/Lealanas.
The main thing that gets me is killyou72 was so fast to toss up a payment address, then empty that wallet. These guys paid him. Should they have used escrow? Yes. But that does not excuse the actions of killyou72. In this case I believe an escrow would already be sending funds back to the bidders/winners.
I agree, dropping red trust now, I was waiting for this to play out but doesn't seem to be a good ending. Killyou, ship the coins man, everyone here has paid. Worse comes to worse red tags can be removed. If he did indeed pull an exit scam this makes it so his account can not be sold as a cherry on top.

I look forward to meeting a lot of us collectors in the future at one of the many conference and even though you will not be joining us in person, your spirit will be at each and every one through the lives you've touched. It will be unbelievable how many toasts will be made to and about you Zepher. You're only really gone when and if you're forgotten... you my friend will live on eternally. Rest easy.

And finally protective methacrylate secured with Titanium bolts. (The foggy appearance is due to a protective film that should be removed once it arrives to the customer ) The peeling of the protective film off of these is going to be so satisfying for the 10 new owners. That's usually the best part about buying a new phone or tv lol.

- I am the only bitcointalk.org sysadmin and on-demand programmer, and I'm used to the current software. Furthermore, I need to frequently make changes to the current software, but each change I make might require alterations to Epochtalk, which is problematic.
I'll fully admit I don't know the ins and outs about this kind of development, but what I do know is how many exchanges have been going tits up due to having only 1 director or 1 person with the know how.. and then unfortunately having something happen to that person and it all comes toppling down. With that said I hope you have some sort of succession plan in case of the worst case scenario happening to you theymos and have somebody that understands/can fill your shoes in that case. Or just live healthy forever, which is what we all want.

This thread is about a COMMUNITY coin, this isn't a pissing match. Yes people have come in here following theymos' post that aren't naturally in the Collectibles board every day. Does that mean they aren't a part of the bitcointalk community? No it doesn't. Do we have a lot of coin creators that are active right now? Yes we do. Does that mean we should shit on somebody for offering their services? No it doesn't. Do we also have coin creators that fucked right off due to toxicity on the Collectibles board? Absolutely. So keep your comments to yourself if you aren't going to act as a community for a community sourced coin.

IMO I would like to see theymos get in contact with Kialara, smoothie (Lealana), and Mike Caldwell (Casascius). These guys have 1oz, 2oz coins on lockdown and create absolutely stunning pieces. Not to say we don't have some other very capable coin creators but those three come to mind as being very large parts of the growth of this particular board on the forum. I'd throw eodguy in there but so far the last coin he teased here seemed to never come to fruition. Mind you they could possibly already have a lot on their plate due to upcoming releases, but with the proper incentive and exposure im sure they could create something incredible.
We have some incredible holograms kicking around aswell.. use the resources we have and make this coin a must have.

Be prepared to either have a deposit or proof of funds. It will be required when Yogg sees this.

Thanks for letting me know - Really appreciate it! I'm still a little new to these coins since I have not spent much time with them. Do you know how to check if the coin is loaded?
Using a first bits lookup like: https://www.walletexplorer.com/?q=19pnCXexIt appears to not be loaded.

Love these coins too. Was actually going to drop some red diamonds in it like the titan I did but I'm curious to see the market price for these, hence the auction for a raw dog btcc.
Would really be cool if you did a multiple color scheme of gems using the BTCC logo colors. Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald/Black Opal/Onyx? Or colored diamonds. Damn that would be sick.

I see that I made the increments .01, meant to make them .001. I can keep it as is or can change it, I dont mind either way just .01 is a little harsh on the increments. Will leave it up to the community if that's ok or not. I'm fine either way.
AuctionPoliceIncrements of 0.001 BTC will help us find the true secondary market price of these coins a lot easier. You spotted your mistake early on and I believe you should be able to modify your OP. Also please include whether or not you will be accepting newbie bids freely or require a deposit. These lower denomination coins are an easier entry point for new collectors and we need to properly outline our rules. With that I will change my bid in the OP to .001, unless there is overwhelming objection I'm not looking to start drama. As far as newbies bidding, I'm fine with anyone bidding freely who has been a member since 2018 or before. Newly made accounts in 2019 need to sign a message from a wallet with at least the amount in their bid. Good? Very reasonable. Good luck with the auction. I actually really like the striations and imperfect features of the titanium coins (besides the shipping error flaws in the 2018 run). I kinda want to peel one and carry it around just to see how they wear over time.

I had a similar issue with a brand new out of the box Ledger Nano S that seemed to brick itself at the bootloader stage. No matter what we tried I couldn't figure it out but luckily I had brought a Trezor One with me aswell, so the person I was helping ended up with a Trezor instead. I brought the Nano S home and plugged it into my PC and it was up and running within 10 minutes... I did nothing different besides change the device it was plugged into. Try a different computer/laptop.
