Titan Bitcoin - Silver 1 oz coin is now available

[Bobsurplus]

These coins are awesome looking, I'll be placing my order very soon.

[TitanBTC]

Credit card ordering is back.  

We battled and negotiated with FIVE different banks/merchant account underwriters before landing on one with the best rates and terms, so please appreciate that the price markup you see at checkout when selecting to pay with a credit/debit card represents the lowest we could find at this time.  

We'll be looking to leverage our good standing to lower the rates in the future.

Would love it if you could somehow implement a BIP32 encryption into this.

Can you elaborate on how you're thinking this would be implemented? 

We don't currently have need to generate public/private keys from our servers, as we use cold storage for all BTC that is used to fund our coins, so I'm not sure that the secure deterministic public key generation BIPS32 offers would help us, but I'm honestly not up to speed on the latest protocol updates. 

What are the problems you're hoping to address and what are you envisioning the solution to look like?

I think It stop's you from tracking all the coins you've sold, and after selling 2-5000 you run a script to cash them all and zero them and F off.

Not to say you would. But extra level's of security allow us to buy a coin we KNOW is safe and you have no way to running off with.

Again not saying oyu would. but if TF has shown us anything.. Anyone can screw off lol.

Hell just imagine the money Cas. would have if he did this

BTW. Marked you off, I will but at least one in the new year, when will gold be out!?!?!

Want to buy some and send to an address in florida, but pay one part in BTC, and another with credit card, can we do that?

We're looking at late January for the 1 oz. gold coins.

We track coin ownership for our 2-factor coins as a security/anti-counterfeiting measure.  We're working on making ownership tracking decentralized, but we haven't come up with a good way to make this product "trust-free".  I'm certainly open to suggestions on that topic. We've explored a few ideas, but its likely there will always be some aspect of our products that involve some trust on the part of customers. 

I don't know Trade Fortress, so I can't comment on the inputs.io fiasco.  I'd like to believe he had good intentions to start, but he also had a reason to stay anonymous.  We're definitely NOT anonymous.  If Mike Caldwell stole everyone's BTC, I would expect he would be arrested, tried and jailed for theft, no?

That's tricky but we can probably make it work.  Could you send an email to sales@titanbtc.com and give them the details of what you're looking for?  They can make up a custom invoice for you. 

Fair warning, though.  We had some stolen credit card purchase attempts (as we expected) and as a result, for the next month or so, we'll need to ship to the billing address associated with the credit card. 

Sorry for the inconvenience there.

he could theoretically have keys to several >7000 BTC -  more then enough to run away to belize

[Fila Ford]

oh these sure do look pretty

i think my hubby is going to have to buy me one soon 

[Todamont]

Any chance of getting some of these "unloaded"? I'm building a collection of physical bitcoins and I'd like to add yours, but don't want to tie up any actual bitcoin value in them right now...

I was interested in your coins, but when I saw how to redeem them I changed my mind : http://www.titanbtc.com/redeem/
If someone wants to redeem their coins they need to use your website On long-term it's not a good idea; you can disappear for any reason and our BTC get frozen.

Are you going to make a series of coins with the private key directly written underneath the hologram ?

[nobbynobbynoob]

They sell coins in the CASASCIUS style with the private key attached to the coin.

They don't. This is what's under the hologram :

whut? 

I just receive my 2 goldalloy coins yesterday and they look great (1 is a little looser in the airtite and rattles, but its not much of an issue). I ordered the privatekey style (rather than 2FA) and am/was expecting a full privatekey under the hologram, like with a casascius.

can you please clarify what is under my hologram? If its just the firstbits like shown above

[TitanBTC]

I'm sorry it's not more clear on the website, but we do sell coins with the full 30-digit private key included.  

There's an option to select whether you want a private key version or a 2FA version of the coin on the product page before you add the coin to your cart.  See the product page, right underneath the price.

I'll get someone working on making that clearer on the website today.

Ok, I tought that it was for any version, not only the 2 factor version.
You should make it clear on your redeem page and put the procedure for each versions; 1. Redeem 2 factor version; 2. Redeem Private key version


How many Titan One Silver 2013 do you have left ?

[nobbynobbynoob]

I received my Titan One Silver today, thanks so much - it is so shiny and beautiful!

Great service.

[luke.watson]

Two questions :

1) As you're selling to for USD do you not have to be a money transmitter?
Not sure if you already are one

2) Do you take BTC and what is the shipping to the UK?

Thanks
