I've never had the good fortune to own a casascius physical BTC.

It would be really cool if somebody(with more rep than me)
created a Gold Rogers style One Piece
with a huge amount of BTC loaded on it.

I would propose doing it as a way to promote BTC and possibly get lots of people excited/informed.

The ideal way to do it is VIA Donations from other BitCoin fans interested in helping it grow.

Once a set amount of BTC is obtained(via donations?) they would be loaded into a physical btc(casascius or custom) then hidden in whatever state the organizer of this event lives in.
Only clue to the BTCOne Piece would be the state/country that it is hidden in.

Hopefully at that point traditional news outlets would run a story about this incredibly valuable modern day hidden treasure.


I would love to be the one to organize it, I doubt anybody would trust/donate to me.
So, Anybody with more rep in the bitcoin community willing to take up/refine/execute this idea?

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

unfortunately, the creater/hider of the coin would have no incentive to actually hide it, or to not come back for it a month later under a different sudonym and claim they found it.

24" PCI-E cables with 16AWG wires and stripped ends - great for server PSU mods, best prices https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=563461
No longer a wannabe - now an ASIC owner!

there is a physical bitcoin at a museum in the UK. people have added to it, just for the fact that it is securely stored and that the owner (the museum) is a known entity in the real world that believes more in making history then making money

A night or two ago I was heavily considering putting all my BTC in a physical coin and hiding it,
I've only managed to accumulate 0.13567825BTC, think anybody would bother looking for it?

All my BTC came from mining/etc., I have been unable to find a reasonable/easy method of buying BTC.
