Here is another fun fact you probably don't know. In 2023 Caribbean Treasures was attempting to make a 1g coin in the denomination of 7500 satoris. The coins were never released because of minting issues. Only 3 1g coins were struck. Only 2 of the 1g coins are operational. The other 1 was severally damaged past the point of salvaging. There is also 1 trail strike of that design done on a 10 gram and 5 gram coin. In total only 4 of that design exists, all trail strikes. You may verify with - Caribbean Treasures

Number 3 please, or any available

Haha, last fun fact. Denarium has 2 different Holograms for the 1/2 oz gold Denarium coin. Here is the proof!

We've learnt a lot of new things so far - 15 slots to go before we roll!

So far, only Vip_Bitcoins and bitbollo have maxed out their slots.

At the beginning of this year, in a joint space venture with the private tech firm Astrobotic, Bitmex sent a physical bitcoin to the moon! Unfortunately, due to a catastrophic propellant leak, the rocket never reach the moon and even burnt up in our atmosphere

I'm aware of that one, unfortunately - but thanks for the reminder, I should add it to the tracker.

For the 10th birthday of the genesis block, in 2009, French street artist Pascal Boyart painted a frescoe in Paris with a 0.26btc ($1000 at the time) puzzle in it. Inspired by the painting « La liberté guidant le peuple » by Delacroix (1830), it was a tribute to France’s Yellow Vest movement. The hidden 12 words (« Banker usury lie people fight hope union citizen lead triumph yellow horizon ») were found one week later by a couple that claimed the bounty.

Excellent story - I was aware of this instance, but not the fact that the mnemonic was publicly known - select a number!

Awesome! 15, please

I actually saw this thread recently, but glossed over some of the points apparently.

Pease select a number.

Lucky number 27 thank you!

It's a great day to learn something new - 13 slots left before we roll.

I'll share some too:

1. The highest funded item isn't actually the cas 1k - Someone funded a 25 BTC Cas with 2k BTC, and a 1 BTC Cas with 1.9k BTC (by spending the previous 25 BTC cas!)
2. BTCC wasn't the first to make items containing a coinbase output (or part thereof) - there have been 26 instances of at least part of a coinbase transaction being sent to a collectible prior to BTCC's first item being funded:

The last one hasn't been peeled so far!

I will give one final fact for slot #20 if it qualifies.

The Economist "Get Ready For A World Currency" magazine was a magazine I owned. It was told to an anonymous buyer here on the forum for $4K back in 2018. I imagine that, today, it's value is at least $50K or way higher.

Picture proof:



I wish I still had this.

 Did you know a Polymerbit note with seed exposed is still loaded even though it's been online for over a year?
