The picture is just a prototype. The finished product will have 2 cards (One with just the public key so people can send funds to it on the go. and a public private one to stash.) I have a fairly high level of trust on Bitcoin-OTC (I go by noitev on there too.) My engraver that I used my Bitcoins on should be here soon and its a high end engraver. There's also a small possibility of a business card sized usb drive with a public address on it. put your own wallet in it and send me a btc address to put on the front and you have a usb backup you can send coins to on the go. Big news: I Work for Bitbills now and im getting the final product ready with him! Stay tuned!

I am willing to invest in this if you need financing to buy a large enough order, which would be very justified. Look at Bitbills.

Oh golly, I appreciate the offer, but I had like 320 coins I got when they were very cheap, I'm using that.

Oh my, this is going to be huge. Imagine using these with a smartphone app or (much later) even a P.O.S. solution. Most modern barcode scanners could easily handle the QR codes. This is a very elegant solution that a lot of mainstream people can wrap their head around. Scan card, spend money in your account. Existing PCI-DSS rules could easily handle loading a private key into memory and then securely erasing it once it is no longer needed for the transaction. Now, if we just had a way where someone didn't need to wait 10+ minutes for confirmations after they've made their purchase we could make some pretty large steps forward in mainstream adoption.

I guess you could make (public key) QR-code earrings or necklaces or bracelets too. Love the card idea!

I have to say the metal engraving is a nice touch, but wouldn't a laminated card (like a credit card) work just as well and be a lot cheaper?
How much will you be selling these for anyway?

So, lemme get this straight. Your customers have to trust you with their private key?
