I mined one in July - and finally got round to sending you some BTC (5 mBTC) too.
It's funny because I was in Kassel with my partner for a concert and not really involved with the Documenta Exhibition. However, just taking a brief walk this beautiful construction caught my eye. It wasn't running but I just walked around admiring it before spotting the QR code and - lo and behold - discovered not only its fascinating history but that it's connected to my crypto world!
We came back the following day when it was tabled to run and loved putting my own energy into stamping a physical coin and mining a crypto coin in the same process. The irony is after all the early excitement about mining and ASICs in late 12 early 13, I ended up with two paperweight BFL units that weren't worth running by the time I got them so this was actually the first crypto I've mined. Also fascinating to learn about the history of slave-labour for coin minting and did some reading-up of my own one evening too. Thanks for that.
I have not really kept up with alts and ICOs so I don't really know how they work, (nor have I downloaded the app nor read the white paper) but I'm assuming the private key with which I signed the transaction to send the BTC will let me claim my TEIO when the time comes? That's of secondary consideration for me really. Whatever happens with the TEIO, I'm happy to have experienced that, have massive respect for those of you who thought it all up and brought it to fruition and happy for you to have the 5mBTC anyway
All the best with the next stage of the project
Thank you so much for your words! We are very excited for having received your support also in the "crypto-side". After the ICO, we will make public through all the channels the way to get your TEIO.
