How would this work H ?
What are the minimum numbers of chips Would there be a fee for the 'custom chip manufacturing setup', the holos and chips (I guess fiat denominated), plus funding (BTC denom'd)
I am assuming the closest we stick to their original chip design the better, costwise (maybe just a different colour ?). Unsure how it would work on the holos ? would they be a different holo ? would the numbering start from 1 ? Is a design needed for this ?
Elephant in the room. Funding
I am guessing that Satori wont start a custom chip, without at least that FIAT denominated amount. So I am assuming there would be a need for pre ordering
Possibly the chip funding amounts could happen nearer shipping time. Do we know a lead time (estimate) from order to shipping

As of now Moto would get to work on answering all of these questions actually, he told me to give him 1-2 weeks and then he'd have a rough draft for me on all of the numbers. I believe it is possible to change the front of the hologram, not the back. Other than that I really am as clueless as the rest of you guys

Hmmm The last "Forum coin" was a big success ... oh wait... Just ... no....
just my 2 Sats

I agree with you on this. The forum is such a smart part of the bitcoin/crypto ecosystem. By making a chip that is specific to this "forum bubble", we are excluding the rest of crypto. So many people stay away from here because of the so called "toxic" environment not to mention the people who don't like theymos for whatever their reason. You need to think on a larger scale... the 50 or so collectors here are great, but you need to make your product appeal to a wider audience and you will get a much better reception. Based on previous item that were forum-centric, I would advise to stay away from this branding.... but then again what do I know Fair points. But then again I don't see this as creating a product for the purpose of reaching a broader audience.. This would be our own Satori Chip and I'm sure most of the people here would keep theirs, not try and flip them somewhere else.. The people that took part in the Satori GB's were all from here, none from the outside

A unique piece from satori would be great to give/sell to an audience that doesnt "live" here

I agree that BCT shouldn’t have a part on the chip itself. I feel like this is for us like Hampz said, but also I’d like to be able to gift these like I have been and if I weren’t a user here I’d want nothing to do with BTC on my coin. A small hidden mark wouldn’t be bad tho if some really wanted it.
My vote is for a brand new front.

Sounds interesting and I'll be watching to see how this plays out. I'm on the fence about the idea if it's forum related but I think it will come down to the design and execution.

I think this is a great idea, and I'd love to be a part of it. The only caution I would say is to not deviate too much from the original design because we will never agree on a right approach, and it will only prolong the ordering process.
Just the thought of having a different color satori coin would be worth pursuing, IMO. It would certainly offer a special premium for not being a traditional orange Satori.

If this is going forward what will be the deadline for submissions?

That'd be awesome to have different colors. You can already count me in the next GB if you chose to handle it ! Just for info, what was that previous "bitcointalk coin" that was made ? What happened ?

Interested in a bundle of em. I see a graphic someone posted in thread, and unfortunately, my color of choice is not there. Purple. Purple just jives with orange so well. Next choice would be Blue (bluechip stocks anyone) & it also is a good counter color to orange. As for the design... I'm no designer, but my preference would be to bastardize their current design in a minor manner. I actually really like the holo (reflects interestingly at different angles in the light) and the front side, I certainly wouldnt remove the moto "value doesnt exist outside the consciousness of man" (I might be off, didnt check). The rest of the design is up for debate, though I also like the interlaced different color circles encompassing the BTC in the center. Alter the colorway perhaps. same with the red ziggy zaggy.
If we wanted to appeal broadly, keeping changes minor like this, but visually appealing/impacting seems to be 1. the route of least resistance to reach consensus among us, and 2. maintains brand identity/recognition. Custom is good, but exclusive isnt inclusive and thus could be viewed negatively a la the old guys country club. & 3. require the least alterations of their current process.
If we opted to go a route like this, securing their current image docs and working off of those would go a long way for ease, if they're open to it.

I agree with a lot of what Tickld said I am simply not crazy about the shiny/glossy messy looking front. It's too busy IMO. I like the more simplistic but "professional" look of BTCC chips. I really dig how they have the BTC all around the border. Since I have no artistic ability and not going to pay a graphic designer I found there's a lot of great casino chip examples in which if you simply swap the casino name for BTC it'd look great. Hampz why did you want this to be all about BTC again?? Edit * BCT

There seemed to be a lot of issues around order fulfillment and I'm glad I didn't deal with that, sad indeed.
