RC,

You addressed this promptly with communication in these threads. Payment was received.  I appreciate the ownership y’all are taking with this breach. to me, it says a lot about your character and customer service. I have no bad feelings on this. mistakes happen,  I understand you have learned from them and look forward to what you do in the future.

Always a pleasure.

That "sign" applies to any new coin maker who sells funded collectibles. And you could just as well apply it to every old coin maker.

They were asking very basic questions on how to generate private keys.  That does not apply to every new maker, was unique to this one

At the moment the other negative tags on RC have been changed to neutral, going to leave mine as a warning for the moment.
Let's be honest its not going to matter since I don't think anyone is going to be buying anything funded or even with keys they generated for a while.

Once it looks like the majority of the people who lost their funds are paid back at least what they lost I will change it. But for now between the
1) Mistake with the key generation
2) The poor quality of the private keys
3) The admission that more then 1 person had access to the machine that generated / printed the keys

There are too many things that are just not done to the way things should be done to take off the negative in my opinion.

HOWEVER, once it looks like everyone has had their swept coins refunded I will update to a neutral.

raritycheck --> Have you attempted to reach out to the people who have not contacted you yet about this who have the coins? Email / PMs / even a letter though the post office if you have no other way of contacting them since you did ship them a coin you should have their address?

2) The poor quality of the private keys


you have not seen MR HOLD private key . 

[21MilBTC]

Maybe another member mentioned this already...But if I'm *RC* I'm turning a negative situation into a positive....

If I'm *RC* I'd design a different *New coin from scratch* and every person that purchased a VIBGYOR coin would now get one of the new designed coin for free....

Here's the kicker......The newly designed coin SHOULD NEVER GO ON SALE.....NEVER EVER......They should only go to the people who purchased a coin in this series...Now *RC* has actually created a new collectible for the people affected...Those who purchased funded get one funded...Those who purchased unfunded get one unfunded....What the people do with the coins once they get them...well that's up to them....

Probably a stupid idea on my part....I don't know....Anyways....it looks like everything the bloke can do he is doing...

Props to *RC* but I'm sure others on here may not see it that way....

Could you please elaborate or point me to some specific thread?

Hi everyone!

I'm new here and found this place after researching transaction 5f3720dd75ea36efed2bffd7bc136dc8556e600d6cc94f2a82c38880e0d02b64.

On a certain day (which I honestly don't remember), I accessed bitaddress.org to generate a wallet for my godson. I'm a tech person, so I took every precaution when accessing the site (Mac/Safari or Chrome), generating the document, and even when printing it. I chose to take my laptop to the printer and connected it via a USB cable (I've worked with printer drivers for years).

I had saved the address 1EXkmyQEtNL351Q9ovUsCvsDTYtx4hVgCf to check the balance using the BlueWallet app, to see how my godson's savings were doing. Tonight, when I accessed the website, I was shocked! The funds had been moved. I immediately spoke to my godson's father, who confirmed that the funds hadn't been moved by him and that the paper was safely stored in a vault, as I had given it to him.

I can't stop thinking about where I went wrong in this process.

If you're looking for assistance you might want to start a new thread. Not that someone won't respond to this post but with a new thread some of the more experienced members will see the new thread and might be more likely to respond.

I still don't know how I had 8 of these coins and NONE of them were swept. I swept all 4 of the 0.01 btc denomination coins and left the other 4 coins that are loaded with 0.001 alone and they are still loaded,  weird.


edit:
Does anyone know how many of the "lost coin series"  0.001 btc coins are still loaded ?  ty

According to Collectible Money, 16 are still funded.

Item 019 from series Rarity Check Lost Coin Series V1 Alloy has been redeemed on 2024-08-07 18:50:58 UTC, worth 0.001 BTC (54.85 USD).

First funded on 2023-09-21 03:30:24 UTC, this item held it's value for 10 months, 21 days, 15 hours.

There are 183 unfunded, 16 funded, and 1 redeemed items in this series now, worth 0.016 BTC (877.61 USD).

The Lost Coin Series has two variants -  Silver and Alloy.

Rarity Check Lost Coin Series V1 Alloy has 16 unredeemed, 1 redeemed, and 183 unfunded (thanks 2stout!).
Rarity Check Lost Coin Series V1 Silver has 5 unredeemed, 4 redeemed, and 91 unfunded.

For VIBGYOR series, there are still 8 unredeemed Gilded and 15 unredeemed Silver worth 0.044BTC and 0.015BTC respectively.

If you hold an intact, funded VIBGYOR coin or know someone who does, please make sure it is peeled and redeemed. Based on what we know about the keygen compromise so far, funds being stolen from this is a matter of WHEN, not IF. Leaving those coins funded is akin to sending a time-delayed donation to the people behind the bad keygen.

2 lost coins should show as redeemed.

Thank you for the datapoint.

If you're certain you used bitaddress and not walletgenerator, my sense is that both you and raritycheck ended up on fake sites of the respective generators, which were compromised.

If you generated any other wallets using this same method, I would suggest sweeping them immediately.

[raghavsood]

2 lost coins should show as redeemed.

For silver or alloy?

Just manually checked all remaining addresses that show funded for both series, and mempool.space shows them as funded still as well.

Would be great to see addresses/txids to rule out a case where a redeemed coin has a different address than the one published on the RC site.
