As promised, I have an exciting announcement!

In honor of the upcoming halving,
I have released an updated 2016 free Casascius eBook, that also contains many additional pages from the Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins and Crypto-Currencies. It replaces the Casascius Guide published in June 2014, over two years ago now.
That's over 90 pages of free Content!

In essence, it is a teaser to this book. The aim is to introduce more people t physical bitcoin. It is engineered to get the reader hooked on the subject, but it does not even come close to what is provided in the paid book. Getting more people interested in our hobby is good fr everyone.

That said, spread it!

The eBook is available at www.coinfirm.org

If anyone wants to make an offer, I know someone who owns one.
Are all the 1000btc coins the same as the one in the pic above, that looks like a "error" coin to me

There are actually three different varieties.
- Series 1 'Prototype'
- Series 1 (as pictured)
- Series 2

Will this be included in the update??

I believe this is all in the current book. There are three separate pages for the gold coin.

I have finished going through a 20 page list of minor corrections which I have implemented. This First Revised Edition will soon be published as a hard-cover.

I will also be making an exciting announcement in the next day or two!  Grin (something to celebrate the halving).

Stay tuned!

Is it like a new version of the book?
How updated it is in terms of latest coins?
Does it include the BTCC coins?

Will the paperback version be updated also and available soon after the the hard-cover?

Not a new version per-se, only with minor revisions (added missing commas, fixed small factual inconsistencies, clarified sentences).
I can't guarantee about the paperback; I may be able to simply 'replace' it, and keep using the same ISBN.

Edit - Just seems like a scam. If not, prove it with me. Smiley

Why does everyone on this forum think everything is a scam? Who would go to the effort of creating a 'fake' book, if the real thing can sell for $150?
One might question whether the book is worth $150, but surely it is not 'fake'.
Nobody would question this in the 'real world'..

It is important to remember that low quantity book printing is not cheap. That said, I'm asking $89 shipped for my book, which is 270 pages of color with 550+ pictures.
I would venture a guess that the model & photography was not cheap either!

 sorry Elianite , but as a customer , i dont have to take this in consideration ! : that's not my problem if he produce only  a low number .. i dont care about it ..

You may have missed my main point, which was essentially that if I can make a profit by charging much less for a book with 50 times the content (still having color photos), $150 does seem like a little too much in comparison. I would not buy at that price..
550  Economy / Collectibles / Re: Chasing Casascius on: June 27, 2016, 06:19:17 PM
Received my book today......
The overall quality of the book is nice but for what we getting, the asking price of $150 seems way off......
15 sentences and 42 pages of almost the same picture.
The glossary at the end was surprising!!
And why not mention the Kialara bar that is involved in the pictures as well?

Your idea was great, but for what you are asking and what we are getting, this is disappointing.
Just my 2 satsohi.....

Thanks

This is amazing.. Maybe our books should be sold as a package deal (hint hint)

Well, congratulations on publishing the second book relating to physical bitcoins! It's a small club we are in  Cool

EDIT: third book

I suppose that if some individual wishes to send a satoshi to each address.. that would be fully out of bithalo's or my control..

I intend to publish a list of public keys for all of the Signature Edition books. If you are an owner and strongly oppose this, please voice your concerns to me by PM.
555  Economy / Collectibles / Re: PAPERBACK - Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins and Crypto-Currencies on: June 23, 2016, 09:25:42 AM
I wish to inform everyone that #2 of the Signature Edition is available for private sale. It is the last one. I do not have any more; this is the last first-hand SE book that will be sold. It is available for immediate shipment.
#1 sold for 3BTC
556  Economy / Collectibles / Re: HARD COVER Encyclopedia + RARE Autograph Edition on: June 23, 2016, 07:53:23 AM
#1 has sold via private sale for $1500.

The number of signatures has now grown to 26, and there will be 12+ holograms, plus unmentioned extras.

Matthew is going through the book looking for needed edits. Looks like there are several on each page... This version will be much better than the original paperback!

1.9BTC

Ahhh dangit, missed the closing bell... nice grab greenplastic! I think this is a new record low for a silver cas single, let alone a goldie  Shocked

I too wish you hadn't missed the bell!  Cheesy

But we do have a winner.. at a record low. I will sort out payment later today.

1.79BTC; escrow split or do I pay for it?

I will try to find a free escrow if you win.
I'm also willing to split.
559  Economy / Collectibles / Re: Where can I buy a Cassacius holo? on: June 22, 2016, 08:40:21 PM
So is there any way I can get another hologram that will fit it and still looks nice, maybe even a replica?

If anyone has one, id be totally interested.

Having a stash of perfect 'replica' Casascius holograms would make me a rich, rich man... though I could see that ending in assassination.

Just under 5 hours left!
