4  Economy / Collectibles / Kialara Guardians: Share, Trade, Buy, and Sell on: August 05, 2023, 12:02:45 AM
Hello, everyone!

Here is a thread dedicated to all things Guardians!

You can find more information at: https://kialara.com/product/guardians/

Each Guardian sent out comes with an entirely distinct Avatar, a one-of-one, carefully crafted using advanced deep-learning AI technology. While you have the freedom to choose your desired element, the actual character you get will be a delightful surprise.

I encourage you all to share your Guardians here, and I'm certain others would love to see them too.

In terms of funding or 'loading' your Guardians, feel free to share tips and methods in this thread. However, please note that generating keys safely is a topic of varied opinions, and I'd prefer to avoid getting involved in that discussion. Nevertheless, if you plan on using a site like bitaddress.org, ensure you're on the correct site and not a copycat scam site. Additionally, it’s a good idea to take your computer offline (air gap), especially when dealing with significant amounts.

5  Economy / Collectibles / [Silent Auction] Diamond Builder 09/10 ~ Ends in one hour on: March 16, 2023, 04:02:45 AM
All proceeds from this auction will be donated to the yogg rug fund.

The highest private bid between now and Monday, March 20th 5pm Pacific takes it. If the highest bid comes in under $10k, I will make up the difference... so it's a guaranteed additional $10k donated.

Please submit/private-message your bid to me in USD amount.

I just shipped two of these out of the US today and this is the very last Diamond Builder for sale, serial 09/10 [unfunded] - so who knows, maybe a bid over retail price is even possible  Huh

Here's a quick video that helps to visualize the diamond eyes and the opals inside better...
https://kialara.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Untitled-design.mp4

I'll likely be bumping this thread a couple times since there won't be any active bidding, but feel free to ask questions or open a discussion below.

And without giving too much away, I want to share that I have a new, self-custodial design in the works that invites the holder into the creation process in a fun and innovative way. This upcoming edition marks a transition towards a trustless wallet model designed to be more accessible to a wider audience... It's just a couple months out, and as usual I'll be announcing this to my mailing list so make sure to subscribe in the footer of kialara.com to be notified.

You are bidding on Messenger CX [2030 edition]
https://kialara.com/product/2030-messengers



With twenty-seven of the original thirty Messengers sold, just three more are remaining including this Dimepiece.  

A recent review mentioning Messengers on DailyCoin.com: Kialara: Bitcoin’s Place in the World of Art

“That is the Kialara's paradox— and its genius. The Kialara provides not only an unprecedented level of physical protection, but also powerful aesthetic and psychological motivation to hold onto one's crypto fortune.”

The private key (in both printed and hand-penciled form – to last generations) are housed in an aluminum centerpiece and sealed between dual Tungsten barriers cut on this industrial water jet. A small disc of mineral glass sits between tungsten barriers, designed to shatter upon manipulation. High resolution photos and video have been recorded for future authentication. (Thank you, Hox)  

This is the second and likely the last time I’m asking for creations of mine to be funded - the first being with the Thug Life bills. The funding of this series is essential to a story that concludes in the year 2030, when 1.5625 btc equals one bitcoin block. Each Messenger sold to date has been funded, and I’m seeking bidders who are wanting to adhere to this precedent. A portion of funds collected are being set aside for future creative marketing endeavors and press opportunities for Messengers, which is positioned to become a talking point as the years progress - especially around future halving events and on the maturity date of each messenger group.

The amount of 1.5625 btc will be collected (on top of the winning bid) and will sit in escrow until your Messenger arrives to you, at which point funds will be released to the bar.

Ultra-rare, first-funded (pre-fork) 2015 Kialara Original Gold - Serial 09/100

This bar was originally sold to a member of the forum here in 2015. It was intended to be a future-gift for this users newborn, and I appreciated their story and agreed to share the public address on the evening before release so that it would be the first gold Kialara funded. In late 2017, circumstances arose that forced the sale of this bar, and I agreed to purchase it back and have been holding onto it since. The condition is mint.

In the interest of closing out the 2050 Messengers this week, I’ll be hosting three-day auctions for the two left.

You are bidding on Messenger MA




Announcing Kialara Messengers, a special collaboration with world-renowned artist Ricky Allman. Allman’s vivid futuristic dreamscape paintings have been featured in The Los Angeles Times, Vice, Harpers, Harvard Business Review, La Nación (Paraguay) and The Independent (UK).

For Messengers, Allman has created a series of paintings that act, in his words, as “self-portraits, aspirational portraits, psychological portraits and portraits of fear.” He continues: “Many of my portraits exhibit a sense of stress or anxiety, reflecting the current mood of our country and throughout the world. A combination of thrill and excitement for the future and a deep dread about the horrors of our present being magnified rather than pacified by technology. Climate change, authoritarian state-sanctioned violence and poverty and total surveillance collide with self-replicating architecture, a global network, record-long lifespans and the eventual cyborgization of humanity. We are accelerating ever quicker into an increasingly chaotic future, and I’m attempting to embody all of that into the more recognizable form of a human face.”

Allman’s original paintings are incorporated into an innovative new multi-part assembly of precision-machined SUS304 stainless steel, permanently bonded at each layer with J-B weld two-part formula, and meticulously constructed with a proprietary combination of thoughtful security and design features.

Suite 05/21 was scheduled next, but one of the housings was lightly damaged during assembly and will be rebuilt with a new housing. It may be auctioned at later date. I caught the issue before the loc-tite had set on just one of the four screws, (prior to drilling) allowing me to pry up the retaining ring and slide the coin out unharmed.
