ANNOUNCING: CHASING CASASCIUS

Chasing Casascius is a project released to commemorate the halving being sold on www.chasingcasascius.com

It is being released through Creation Company (CC Ltd.) and we are working hard to get our publisher and printer in line with our exclusive custom printing demands.

This is a photo book featuring a short story about a girl, whose profession is Block Explorer, and her quest to find a Casascius gold bar and sync it's associated address with the bitcoin blockchain.

To me, it represents a whimsical story that doesn't need to mention bitcoin directly in the title to get attention. Casascius gold plated bars remain the most aesthetic and technologically advanced gold plates in existence. This story combines bitcoin, casascius bars, fintech, an exotic locale, IoT and more in a technologically advanced way.

Although our suppliers asked us to pay them in US dollars, we are accepting payment only in bitcoin. We are committed to releasing this product in the closed loop bitcoin ecosystem:

  • Payment in Bitcoin
  • Track your ownership with the associated Counterparty asset
  • A portion of the proceeds donated to charities that accept bitcoin
  • Sales timeline tied to the bitcoin halving
  • International Shipping

Sales close at block 420,000, so time to purchase this book is limited

After the halving, a book from number 1 - 5000 will be chosen randomly via a provably fair seed to be shipped with the Casascius Gold Bar. This is worth more than the book itself.

We are using Stripe for payment processing of bitcoin, alipay, and credit cards. We also accept bitcoin escrow on orders of 5 or more

I'll be around here for the duration of this project, but unless Theymos un-newbs my account, it will be slow for me to respond here. We can also be reached via email at hello@ccltd.co

Let's make history,
Photon Research

Brand new account and effectively anonymous seller (we only have your statement that you are known to coinbase)
You can complain to coinbase .... I am not on coinbase. Will coinbase verify your statements ?

I would love to buy, if there was an escrow opportunity

ccltd.co website is not bursting with legitimacy
ccltd.co looks to be registered / shielded through Panama

Give me a reason to feel that I wont be ripped off, and I will be buying. Set up an escrow facility through a trusted name on the forum, you will get lots more sales

I would be willing to buy one assuming we can use a well known escrow on this forum.

Do you plan to at least respond to requests for escrow given you have no known reputation on this forum?

If you do have trades you've done please link us to the proof so we can verify. Thanks.

I've been in contact with several people regarding the group buys and escrow

This presently presents logistical problems as this particular forum's version of trust wasn't considered by my team (but still wouldn't change the logistical problem even if we had considered it, the distribution model would have been concluded unviable and we wouldn't have pursued the project!). So it depends on the size of the buys and the need for it, as the books are selling as is using the way we intended for them to be sold.

This may be something we consider down the line (in coordination with our publisher's warehousing, printing and shipping cost demands) if it is a substantial number of copies - shipping many copies to one person instead of many copies to many people.

People interested in the book should buy it through the website. People that want to buy the book in different quantities need to contact me via PM or email.

Is it possible that you can post a plain picture of the finished book - just to see that the cake real?

Some people will have their orders soon, they are shipped from a warehouse and I don't have a copy here. But I have approved proofs, I'll get one and take a picture next time
