Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

They initially were selling them 10 for $100 but then changed to 5 for $50. Seems like such a small amount for a scam but I guess if they had 100 orders you never know. Also it is Christmas time, but why hasn't anyone received even a reply in over 10 days?
Hope they are just a bit behind. I was looking forward to giving these out as gifts to a couple friends who have shown interest in bitcoin

Yeah, I checked everything (WHOIS) out, but for such a trivial amount of BTC I wasn't terribly worried. I'm still going to give them time before I go calling anyone a scammer or anything like that.  |

Not a good start. Maybe the laser blinded them?

Lol. Day 12... still not a word I continue to have hope, only because the product is such a good idea and yet relatively simple to make -- they could make so much more money by actually making the product rather than just taking a few orders and bailing. But I've been wrong before. If they don't come through, maybe I'll just figure out how to do this myself. |

You're right, I feel like they could make a lot more money by having a real product. It's a shame too if it turns out to be fake, since the product looks pretty cool and I was excited to get them and hand them out to people. I guess time will tell... coming up on 2 weeks with no word.

Per the website: We will be issuing refunds starting January 10th due to low demand and issues with our engraving process. Too bad, seemed like a cool idea. |

The only reason they had "low demand" is they didn't keep their reddit post alive and they didn't respond here frequently enough to keep it visible.
Too bad, hopefully someone else will move in and make this happen.

Crazy something fishy happened

Not a scam tho
Low demand is bs, they did not expect to sell a million in a week

Fear not, f*D has moved into this space with laminated paper wallets for select currencies and will be launching plastic card versions to support all cryptos in the next couple of weeks.

Interesting. Well I guess we will see in 10 days?? Seems weird, why not just issue the refunds now.
Hopefully someone can come up with a product like this. I've seen some wood etched ones, but not really any credit card sized aluminum or steel

Hey guys! We are Crypto Cards, and we have been offering a similar product for about a month now. Coldcoins actually registered their site 24 hours after our first reddit post, so maybe they liked our idea a little to much;) Anyways, it's to bad they have decided to close up shop! We would like to offer those who placed orders for Coldcoins a generous discount on any of our products. Send us a message via our contact page on our site, and we'll hook you up! As I'm sure you're all wondering "how do we know you're not going to close up shop to?". We'll, we have actually been processing and shipping orders to happy customers since day one! (if you're a customer thats already received your order, make a post! We'd love to hear from you, and I'm sure everyone else would to!). To ensure a situation like this didn't happen, we did a decent amount of testing of both materials and printing processes before bringing the product to market. check out our site at www.crypto-cards.com . If you placed an order for Coldcoins, don't forget to get in contact with us for a sweet discount! |

We actually already offer them! We just need to add that as an option for our Cold Cards (already listed for our public ID cards). If you'd like one for litecoin, just make a note in the order notes section of the checkout. If you were a ColdCoins customer, shoot us an e-mail via the contact page and we'll hook you up.
