Found this Kickstarter, looked interesting;

You would think that the cards would have a little more style or thought put into them, don't get me wrong I am all for a bitcoin playing card deck! I wonder why the Bicycle brand hasn't already done this? Or maybe they have an I didn't know about it yet I will have to search the web. I have seen many different types of bitcoin/crypto cards though made by private companies I certainly wouldn't mind owning another deck. I am hesitant to get in on this kickstarter because from the looks of it right now they aren't going to hit goal, unless some of the forum folks take a liking to these and other folks post to social media etc.

Yeah, I had my eye on this deck of cards for sale on Amazon for a while until I decided I just didn't want to spend the money:



The price difference between the Bicycle cards and the ones above isn't that much, and I actually like the Bicycle packaging a lot more--orange is an eye-catching color, and the texture of the Rich Life Style cards seems too slick.  And man, I like the ace of spades card and the seed phrase recovery card that's in the Bicycle deck.

I think there's a lot of attention to detail here, and they might look just a tad minimalist but overall it appears to be a collectible that'd be well worth the money.

You know what maybe you're right I did quickly glance and this but I have to say that I did initially agree with you I was fond lf the color and I will say that the design elements on the back do resemble the famous Bitcoin coin design depicted but i did not initially notice these key factors: there are only 21 days or 3 weeks for this project and in a span of only 4 days they are nearly 1/4 of the way to being fully funded. And secondly there are only 2100 decks going to be made. Making this symbolic to 21 mil cap. A nice nod with this collection.  The seed phrase is cool but the way it shows is that they pre print you a wallet? I think I misjudged a little bit now having a second look Sceptical, I will have to keep this on my radar! P.s. those amazon card sets are also pretty sweet!!! I like that they're golden and come with a chip.

however the face of the card are the typical face you see on every deck of bicycle cards - I wish they had put some sort of bitcoin theme/twist to the face of the cards as well.
