I am surprised their coin is bland/generic and not some new kick-ass design. I also have a hard time assessing the collectible value of Ballet products. My personal opinion is there is very little premium opportunity in them, but I will be thrilled if they have some eventual appreciation.

HOWEVER, I also cannot imagine the risks of selling these loaded products right now. Only 25 US States will allow them to sell there, securities questions etc. I bet they decided to go with a design that is recognizable to the general public due to all the other risk factors; playing it safe on design seems appropriate. I'm pulling for them gaining mass adoption.

I am inspired by the risks they are taking and the products they are testing. I'm a big fan of BTCC/Ballet/B. Lee/others. Keep up the good work!






More designs will be coming in the future.

I knew there was an issue with credit cards purchasing crypto but whats the problem with debit cards? Debit card is whst you use on the exchange?


Debit cards have a higher success rate than credit cards, but still too many are being rejected. Feel free to give it try.
Are there any patterns you can identify regarding buyer country location?

Currently the product is only available in the United States, so we don't have any information about other countries.

Hi everyone,

Thank you for expressing interest in our latest product, Loaded PURE Bitcoin. Regrettably, we have encountered certain issues during the beta launch phase. Financial institutions are declining a substantial proportion of credit and debit card transactions on our website due to regulatory restrictions on the cryptocurrency industry.

We have observed that some of our customers attempted to make payments using credit cards, but unfortunately, their transactions were declined. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and kindly request that you consider placing your order again using ACH bank transfer if you remain interested in the product.

Thank you,

Ballet Team

I am pleased with your new product and commitment to tearing down the walls of regulation. I hope in the future you attempt to recapture the essence of what made physical bitcoin so special to begin with. Rarity and scarcity are the heart of driving sales. Icluding things like dates, mintage, and unique characteristics is the reason why customers become return buyers. Its the reason why your BTCCs are atill so highly sought after. I understand that you're juggling mass production and mainstream adoption and i hope that you can find a way to implement the chaacteristics that make me want to keep my ballet wallet in a glass case. I look forward to your new products and seeing what you come up with.

Thank you for the feedback. We definitely put a high value on the preferences of avid physical bitcoin enthusiasts, but as you say, there are a lot of factors to balance when designing our products.

How many will be made of each or are these unlimited?

These are standard PURE Bitcoin physical bitcoin cards, so there won't be a limit on how many we produce.

Are they live on site

Yes.

Congrats on a cool new release.

Any estimates / plans to bring this to European Union, too?
And are solid-silver wallets a possibility in the near future?

We don't have an estimate of when we will be able to offer this in the EU.

We do currently sell one pure silver product: https://store.ballet.com/collections/ballet/products/2021-pure-bitcoin-signature-set/

Hi Bobby,

Are these "virgin loaded" cards, similar to the original BTCC chips and coins that were loaded directly from a block reward, and if not, can you offer cards created that way?

Good to see you back in action with a new product Smiley

Thanks,
-buck


These cards do not contain bitcoin from a newly-mined block. We will take your request under consideration, but please be aware that BTCC had its own mining pool, which made it easier to do.

I have asked a few people at ballet and have yet to get a clear answer

will these vary in appearance on the card or packaging from the pure wallets of the same denomination that are unloaded?

These loaded cards are the same as the empty ones sold on the Ballet store, but these come in black packages, the empty ones in white. You can see the black packages here:

Due to COVID restrictions, we cannot really go anywhere to get a decent photo - besides, you do not want to have my mug in the photo - so I am simply submitting a picture of my Balletcrypto collection. As far as I know I am only missing the Ravencoin and the PRO series cards (my PRO series were ordered last week but have not yet shipped so cannot be included - and I was just made aware of the Ravencoin one, so I will be on the lookout to find one of those as well)

Located in USA - State of Florida



Thank you for your submission MoparMining! Your collection is impressive!
