The first paper wallet tipped in this experiment (to a male server at Chambar, Vancouver) has now expired.  The 25mBTCs have been revoked: https://blockchain.info/address/1847EXesCGn9k7fcR9tBnYFfKSR8ssLCcY

Maybe 10 days isn't long enough time?
For someone that has no idea about bitcoin it might take
longer than 10 days to figure it out ( or get help).
"We are just fools. We insanely believe that we can replace one politician with another and something will really change. The ONLY possible way to achieve change is to change the very system of how government functions. Until we are prepared to do that, suck it up for your future belongs to the madness and corruption of politicians."

10 days is fine.  By then they have probably tossed it not understanding what it is.   It does say 10 days on the paper warning them as well.

My first five 0.025 BTC paper wallet tips have all expired and the funds have been revoked.  None were redeemed by the recipient.  

I gave out another paper wallet at Vij's in Vancouver on Sunday evening (1Bkh1bScfbhFkgmwqzgCXbWJs76yRH3oLr).  Perhaps this will be the first!  

I'd like to get more paper wallets out in the wild so that I can get better statistics.  I may have to start recruiting trusted friends and family to help in the experiment.  I'm still expecting about a 10% redemption rate, but time will tell...
