[Interest Check] Custom Designed Satori Coins

[BitcoinNewsMagazine]

May have to take what you can get. From the company website:

・Sale resuming date: February 12 Monday (Japan standard time)

・Important: There will only be about 3,000 pcs made for sale. After this lot, we expect to cease sale for at least 3 months or more. It is becoming ever more difficult to load value at low transaction fee. It makes no sense to manufacture a 0.001BTC coin with the fee being just as high as that amount. We are continually trying various techniques to load a large quantity at low fee and we hope we will be able to achieve in the near future.

As for color combinations it is interesting to look at what BTCC has used:



If you are ordering in bulk loaded 0.002 or more may get preferential treatment? Just a thought. However it sounds like they are going to make one last production run of 0.001 chips; @Hhampuz should know more since he is the one talking to the company.

Yeah, Moto told me that they'd get a small batch in shortly but apparently some of it is already sold just waiting to get shipped. And yeah Moto has told me for a while now about the difficulties with loading 0.001BTC per chip. Last we spoke he was unsure if they'd even make any more satoris in the next 6-8 months.. So I'd assume that he would prefer to load them with more than 0.001 if we were to make a custom chip.

I also really like the colors on the BTCC chips, but I don't think we want to make ours too close to them, as that could perhaps also stir up some troubles .


As for how far we'll go with the design, I'm also thinking that we might just change the colors a bit, I also believe we could change the front of the hologram, not the back, and that is where it could get interesting.

I misspelled my joke..

"Hampz why did you want to make this all about BTC chips"  Meant to say *BCT.  Fail. lol  

In reference to BTCC - I think the Green would look sharp with black BTC logos.  The blue would be better with a platinum/silver color for the BTC.

Wow, missed this topic until now.
Idea is great and I'd be in for a few rolls for sure.

We've got a lot of options/opinions for designs and none of them seem able to be written off immediately.  If they could be mockedup and vote out, maybe not for a difinitive design,but to narrow it down to say tio 3-5 & then democracy vote for final design, perhaps thatll work.    IM strongly against "taking a casino design and slapping a BTC on it"  too lazy.

I'm not an artist/graphic designer and there are some very cool designs, and I'm not saying I wouldn't change a few things either.  It's not about being lazy.  Plus it's going to be voted on.

My wording was crude.  Taking a chp from say Harrah's and slapping a BTC in the middle is lazy. Im no artist or designer, I know this isnt a quick process, just voicing my opinion and seeing if it weeds out any forward progress. Taking a satori coin and changing it maintains brand. I like that idea. maybe I shouldnt have paid attention in business shool, idk.

Business management degree myself..I paid attention too and I got you..I didn't lay it out very clearly what I meant so you were going off a vague statement.  I looked at, at least a 1000 chips and found a few I loved and got ideas on how to change them up.  I'm currently designing a coin to bring here and have some decent ideas..just no artistic ability of any kind to put them on paper or pc (just stuck in my head lol)

[SatoshJr]

Count me in.
Whichever design you guys agree upon, I'm in.

[dolphriends]

I suggest the hologram could have a dolphin in it.

[Gatorelf]

A peacock with zeros and ones in the eye of the feather

[buckrogers]

I think it would be a very good idea if we put killyou72 in charge of the design.

No.

Yea, that would probably be the biggest mistake in the history of making mistakes.

and yea I know you are joking

[digicoinuser]

Have any designs started to come in?  I'm eager to see what's been submitted so far! 

[SatoshJr]

How about we ask Moto at Satoricoins for a special design?
That way, they will be in the same spirit as the original Satori, but with a special edition touch.

From the Satori website:

When our stock depleted in late January, we announced that we will resume sale on Feb 12. But we are afraid to say, we are going to delay the resuming date. The reason is this.

As you know by now, Coincheck hack problem arose. Our decision to originally use Coincheck payment service was for our accounting management purpose, to avoid the complex BTC/USD/YEN calculation burden. But to this date, we cannot retrieve our BTC .... Alas, everyone, please learn from our mistake !

So, we need to introduce a new set up and implementing that is going to take another week or two. We are sorry to keep you all waiting. As soon as we are ready, we will re-announce.

Now please take note in that when we resume, in order to serve as many people as possible, there will be a 100 pcs purchase quota limit per person. We cannot accept orders above 100 pcs. We expect to make close to 3,000 pcs.

Lastly, we previously indicated that after this lot, we expect to cease sale for a prolonged period (due to high transaction fee preventing us from manufacturing at a sensible cost). The good news is that lately, the transaction fee has come down drastically. Preparation to fully restock will still take a few months and we cannot promise any dates, but things are starting to look promising.

Thank you all for your patience and understanding.

@Hhampuz does this mean no more group buys or custom designed Satori Coin for some extended time?

Seems that way, party over....

Cool idea!

I'm currently working on my own mockups, but if anyone has an awesome idea that they want mocked up, feel free to reach out to me, I'd be happy to assist!

Shoot me a PM with your idea or message here, happy to help people out to bring their idea to life!

Thanks,

Very cool of you- will likely be in touch!

The last group buy was for 214 rolls. With Satori limiting to maximum 100 rolls order per person now we will be fortunate if Hhampuz wants to do another group buy for the next batch from Satori. It sounds like custom coins are way in the future if ever.

Good thing I HODLED on to my precious Satori rolls then.
