We have some exciting projects we are working on. We can't say anything specific yet as we're currently in the talks with designers and manufacturers.

We are also thinking about setting 100 of the current coin series aside for us to assemble at a later date. This would mean that we will have even fewer DIY coins available. Make sure to get your orders in ASAP! Remember, every order of 5 coins gets a free 'prototype' coin (while stocks last).

 

[SHIBANU]

We'd like to wish the entire Bitcoin and crypto community a merry Christmas and a happy festive season!

[SHIBANU]

Happy 2016 to the entire community!!!
Here's to a year full of health and happiness!
We hope that in 2016 we will be able to continue to be part of this amazing community. We have some amazing things planned and we cannot wait to share it with you.

You know you want some coins... Once they're gone, they're gone!

How many of you are interested in buying assembled coins? We are considering assembling the last 100 coins of this series but we'd need a new hologram to differentiate the assembled coins to the DIY coins. We were thinking of going with the same hologram in silver but this would cause us to have to charge quite a bit more for the coin... We're open to suggestions though

Would they be loaded or unloaded with the 50,000 Doge?

It wouldn't come loaded with the 50k DOGE. We would ask for payment + 50k DOGE and then we would load it upon delivery. We could also load the coins with the face value at the current rate of the buyer doesn't have any DOGE. The reason for the higher costs would be that we'd need to pay for a full hologram production run and the cost of this would have to be absorbed by the 100 coins. Normally speaking, a high production run would mean the cost would be spread more evenly over a greater number of coins. Here however, the low number of coins would cause the price per coin to increase.

I would be interested if the hologram was different as you described

I like this idea. Cryptoimperator does it this way for their BTC coins.

Would you then also sell the gold hologram assembled ones as pictured in the OP?

Are custom holograms expensive?

Thank you

The problem with selling the assembled gold ones is that people could simply use their DIY holograms to replicate the coins.
Say our firstbits show a wallet address starting with DG30oC1a, anyone who has a gold hologram can assemble their own coin and replicate these firstbits to give the impression that their selling a coin funded and assembled by us, where in truth the coin could have no private jet underneath whatsoever.

We need to find a possible solution to this to ensure that this won't happen. Our best option would be to use a different hologram that we will only use on assembled coins. However, a new production run (without design costs) could range between $700-1000 alone. That would bring the price of each coin up by $7-10 simply because we'd need to divide that cost between the 100 coins.

Have you thought about collaborating with gravitate or mrbrt to use one of their unreleased hologram series on a limited edition set of your coins (50 or 100 coins)? Since they are already produced, the cost would be significantly less.

Maybe use the Prototype ones for the pre-assembled "gold hologram" coins.
I guess this could still be done to a degree if you have a decent amount of the Prototypes left.
Un-hologram the pre-assembled ones all ready made and sell as the regular Shibanus.
This way there would be only pre-assembled Prototypes out in the wild and not be any fake duplicate first bits coins.

Thanks

As good as a suggestion this is, users could simply take their prototypes and use their DIY holograms to produce assembled 'prototype' coins.

coins...

We have been in talks with gravitate with regards to future colloboration but nothing in connection with our current series. This could be a possible option although as far as we know, both manufacturers do have some holograms that were released non-assembled which takes us back to square one.

If one of the above have some holos that they only used on assembled coins then it could potentially work.

I had the same thought.
This would work like the coins wttbs sold a while back. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1195329
The only problem I see with this is if someone did not use these DIY holograms on the Microsoul coins, they could use them to replicate the new ones from SHIBANU.
BUT, I know of only a couple people that got more than a couple of these coins, so the community would know pretty quickly if this came about.

Is there a way to "number" holograms after they are printed?.....
DUH (to myself  )... smoothie does this with a laser for his "buyer funded" coins.
Maybe this could be done using the Microsoul holos.

The Ravenbit ones would work, but would have to use the Node ones?
I am being lazy to look this up,  but didn't mrbrt sell sheets of the Satoshi holos? or maybe sent many extras when ordering?
I'm pretty sure I have 2 or more sheets of these somewhere.

Just some more satoshi to chew on.....

Thanks

EDIT: Maybe just laser engrave the ones already pre-assembled. If there are less than 20 or so, this would solve the problem for cheap!!

That is what we were thinking too.
With regards to the laser engraving, that is also a possibility although anyone could laser engrave their holograms. We'd need to do some more research as we currently don't own a laser engraver.

Thanks for the suggestions guys!

MUCH WOW! SUCH GROWTH! MANY NUMBERS!

The DOGE price has risen by over 62% in the last 24 hours!!!

Buy a Physical Dogecoin today!!! Don't miss your chance

Edit: Make that 77% Growth.

[SHIBANU]

All pending orders have been shipped

[SHIBANU]

Any word on the new coins/holograms that you wanted to produce??

We are working with a user on the forum to design something awesome.
We're still going through the ideas stage but we've got some great ideas and sketches.
We will have to count how many 2015 Dogecoins we have left. Sales have slowed down for the last two weeks so we're not sure if producing a new hologram will be a viable option. We may just assemble 50-100 coins and sell them with a COA.

[Fortify]

Just put in my order for 5 + 1, they look exceptional and I can't wait to add them to the collection.

Let me guess something : a new serie of coins ? Are the prices of these nice looking physical coins negotiable ?

Interesting and too bad. The idea of the free prototype coin is interesting. The picture of it appears for me as an invalid proxy error. Can I get a new link please ?
