Sounds like a regurgitation of Bitclub but with a phone added in. Hey, scammers gotta change it up every now and then.
In my opinion, anything that promises a set amount of return is a ponzi - there is no way to guarantee a rate when you cannot control the price, network difficulty, or block find for your specific coin.
the only way to guarantee a set rate would be to take in millions from investors and pay it back out in increments - always ensuring you bring in more than you pay out - of course.

Got my parcel today and absolutly happy with it. The quality of the print is sick. Might frame this with my Coldkeys from Q1 together. Keep up your good work, Kryptowerk! very nice! I got a bunch of stuff coming from him so I know hes trying to find the best way to ship it - coming across the ocean isnt cheap these days! Yeah you're right. But you dont need to be worry about the packaging of Kryptowerk, he packed it absolutly safe against damaging the items. oh for sure! I meant most economical as the items are all different sizes - but I know it will be worth the wait.

not to go too off topic - in June of 2018 I met with several members of BitClub - they posted some ad about a local bitcoin meet up - I said wth and attended - it turned it it was hosted by BitClub who made it into a big sales pitch on how to join their Ponzi - though, they did not call it a Ponzi - the members were just reading the slides verbatim and had no real mining knowledge - they were amazed that I was currently mining at home - they all thought that was impossible (at the time I was running 20 S9's) and got their "leader" not sure what his real role was but he did understand mining and told them to basically stop talking to me and asked them to have me leave lol I still have their powerpoint slides somewhere --- If I knew I it was only for this BitClub version of the ledger and not the other two (which I have several of each of those versions) I would join lol but I dont want any more of the other ones. Good luck to all who enter! I need to find me one of those BitClub versions! also noteworthy the two architects behind BitClub petitioned to be released from prison because of COVID 19 and both were granted release. taking this out for now - I am not sure if they were - one source says yes and another says no. edit - the guy they called on got on the phone was David Struckman second edit - the other guy involved in Bitclub - Russ Medlin was just arrested --- https://www.scmp.com/news/asia/southeast-asia/article/3089307/us-bitcoin-fugitive-russ-medlin-arrested-sex-chargesfinal edit - here is some info on the bitclub ledger edition https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@sinushacker/bitclub-hardware-wallet

One thing I will need to try is to put a small bit on one, and see if I set it up on one device what will happen if its "tapped" to a new device - I want to know if someone can essentially steal the card and they have all the funds on it simply because they have the card ? or because it is sync'd to my device that it is requires my phone?
Also, what happens if I lose my phone? Can I easily access it with another device - the above scenario about someone stealing it would answer this question as it is basically the scenario just not "stolen"
all the cryptographic keys (public/private) are being created within the chip and stays there (ie the private key). If you lose the card, then you lose the funds. The app is just a way to interact with the card (it does not store anything from the card). Hence you can use the card with different phones. With a single card scan, you can instantly see the balance of the card (ie if it is loaded or not). If you would like to transfer funds from the card to another addy, you have to keep the card attached to the phone for 1-2 minutes (for security reasons - see contactless RFID skimming) yea - I tested that just a few mins ago using my wife's phone, loaded right up with no problem - I don't see any way to add a password or anything either. AFAIK there is no option to add a password. but IMO you do not need one. The major functionality of those cards (except to store crypto like a usual hardware wallet) is to perform off-chain transactions. User A loads the card with an x amount, and pass it to user B. User B tap the card to the phone, confirmes the loaded amount and keeps the card (as an exchange for goods/ or services) edit: I never experiment myself with the PIN usage edit 2: someone should have physical access to your card (for a couple of minutes) to steal your funds. Hence if you are afraid of this situation, then probably this is not the ideal solution to store crypto in it. edit 3: the FAQ the BitcoinNewsMagazine posted above, will probably solve/answer all your questions :-) yea I figured it would take longer - my concern was if someone steals the card like a burglary - but that goes with any cold storage wallet as well - all they need to do is peel em and sweep em - if they know what they are lol I always feel that any criminals in my area if they get past the alarm and my guns wont know what crypto is lol EDIT another concern - maybe a non issue as there may be other ways to read the card - but what if Tangem goes under or their app stops working - will there be any way to recover the btc that might be on it? An example would be coinkite - I have one of their cards and with the public address I can add to the card but without their system, there is no way to remove anything added to the card/account. I do like the idea of using it to carry a set amount of btc - like in your example, to pay someone where they tap it and verify and then keep the card and there is no concern with me being able to take the funds as they essentially hold the private key in that card.

If I'm not mistaken I have a couple of prototypes of prototypes (they don't have the H1.W marking). Sent by the CFO of BTChip (that later became ledger) to a few french people to be beta tester. I've used them, put some dust, made a few Tx, lost the seed....
I'll put a photos in the next day or so.
wanting to sell any of them?

Black Bitcoin decks added today
Viz
ha! I had not seen you selling these! I ordered a green and black deck from their site and a white puzzle set.

I placed an order on May 20, the site was blocked, I stressed, but with insistence I managed. Because I thought I could sell out immediately, after all it still lasted a few days. I received the confirmation in my email, but I verified that they had not charged the amount! I was worried for a few days, maybe it was an error and the order didn't come in, but if it had happened, I wouldn't be able to get the dog's postage stamp. I got a reply from the post office in Austria saying that they would only charge at the time of shipment, ufff I hope you send the postage stamps in the original yellow protective packaging, I think they will have another value. Will all postage stamps have this packaging to avoid reading the code? I am philatelist unusual stamps my charges went thru immediately.

oh now I really need the pool to hit a block so I can spend the proceeds on one of those red rolls!

I found my satori there and it had the right address but the wrong balance - I assume as this is still a work in progress that it will change to show the correct balance when you are finished.

Be careful here. If he will not use forum member escrow I would be extremely suspicious of this offering. It fits a very common format of previous scams we have seen in here for at least a year now. Caveat Emptor. Also, do NOT agree to send "shipping costs" in advance. Another popular ruse. Good Luck.
agreed with this full statement - use escrow and pay nothing up front.

Awesome thanks! You disabled messages from newbie accounts and I’m still labeled as a newbie on here unfortunately. MJ can assist with escrow services. someone gave you a merit - not a newbie now lol
