Titan Bitcoins - Physical Bitcoins with 2-factor authentication

[TitanBTC]

if you send me one of these i will make a video to determine if my cat prefers these over cass coins

Does the cat have good taste?  You're going to have be OK with a coin that smells strongly of tuna if this is how it's going to be.

yes he is an excellent cat. Smelling strongly of tuna is fine, however the other coin might also smell of tuna from last years unrelated tuna salad incident

I just ordered some catnip off of Amazon to give us the edge.  We'll be in touch.

Thanks!   

P.S.  I don't recommend coins with private keys if you intend to resell, due to the ease of counterfeiting/hacking, but you wanted them so here they are...

Nice looking coins. I just don't like that qr-code with the website over it. When will you have the coins similar to casascius?

[The 4ner]

That's one awesome coin! I love the design. Will you concider minting silver coins?

Read through the posts. He did mention minting gold and silver coins.

We won't be copying Mike's design for the Casascius coins' holograms as the QR code is necessary for now, but we're looking at implementing NFC chips on the coins which would let us have a nicer design on the holograms.  We'll bump that one in the list of future improvements.

Thanks for the feedback, 4ner.

That sounds awesome! No problem.

Price fluctuations have been a bit crazy the last few days!  We price the coins based on fixed margin above the spot value of BTC, so if you're sending us payment directly for an order you PM'ed to me...please contact me beforehand to make sure you're not paying too much.  Thanks!

Got 2 in. Love em. Great customer service guys!

Any idea when the silver/gold coins will be available?

I'm happy to give an update. 

We'll be officially listing the Titan One silver edition on our website November 30th.  We've sent the final design revisions off to the engraver and purchased 1,000 ounces of silver today (prices were down a few percent so we took advantage).  We have some resellers that are pre-purchasing now to get lower edition numbers so I'll go ahead and open up pre-sales to forum members here as well.  I don't have pictures yet, but those of you that know how we operate will trust me when I say that we won't deliver anything short of exceptional.  The 2013 silver edition of the Titan One is limited to just a single production run of 1,000 pieces and they will be selling for 1.85 BTC per coin.

The silver Titan One coins are slightly larger (39mm diameter).  We felt that a 1 oz coin at the current diameter looked just a little too thick.  These coins are going to be minted at a "proof" grade quality.  The dies have to be re-polished often to maintain a high mirror finish and the coins are individually pressed so it does take a bit more time.  It's worth it though, as they come out looking absolutely spectacular.

Emailing sales@titanbtc.com is best, as I've already botched one order that was placed here (sorry Phil), but if you don't mind working with me directly, feel free to PM.

Got mine a while ago (numbers 199 and 200!) I had a problem funding one if the coins and used the Contact Us page on their website. My problem was fixed within 5 minutes of sending the email. Really ecstatic at the great customer service and on top of that, the coins look amazing

Great to hear, btway!
