Got hacked, need 14BTC, will offer TheBitcoinMuseum and contents as collateral.

..the community should rally for proven and established members that have been the victim, regardless of "coulda shoulda wudda" finger pointing and provide help where needed, especially for something important.  Nothing is 100% safe and secure and I'm a little shocked at the lack of pledges here.

With that in mind (and thinking how upset my real boss would be if our wedding day had been in jeopardy) I'd be happy to send a gift of 1BTC, I don't want it back.
 

I'm glad to see this too... and i agree -- its a little surprising that more people aren't helping out. 
I hope they will inspired to the rally.

Here here.  Couldn't agree with these two posts more.  Really re-assuring to see good people helping other good people still a respected aspect of the bitcoin ecosystem.

Yeah I fully agree with this.
I gave an interest free loan, not because I get something out of it, but just because it feels great knowing you helped someone.
It would have been a donation, but I am not really in a position to give out donations like that. I'd rather give a loan of 0.5 btc than a donation of like 0.05 btc

I really hope more people step up and send some money his way.

About 1-2 years at this point.  These now basically cost more to run then what they generate

How much hashrate do you need to make 1 btc

[ThomasCrowne]

Are you selling item(s) individually or are you hoping somebody will come along and put up the whole 14BTC just to hold everything?

If selling individual item(s) interested in knowing how much your asking for the 2011 Casacius Physical and whether or not it has been redeemed.

I'm asking for offers in this thread...

If someone came along and offered a loan, that would get me out of the shit and save my arse!

Otherwise, I'll sell the smallest amount of items to get the 14BTC I need. If I end up having to only sell 5-6 items to make that up, then I only lose 5% of the Museum's items.

Although I was hoping to one day have grandkids and watch their faces light up when I show them the rarest BTC1 casascius of them all...THE ERROR COIN

hopes & dreams...it's what keeps us all going

in the last hour we have had a wonderful member of this bitcoin community step forward and offer a loan for the remaining 10 coin needed to recoup the stolen amount - this means that none of the items will be sold and the museum will remain intact

I would like to thank everyone who has assisted us in loans and donations towards this amount, you have all restored my faith in the BTC community and I am now typing with eyes full of tears

and I would also like to say to everyone who showed an interest in this auction that I thank you for your support and kind words. Thanks to you guys the museum will not be getting split up, if you all hadn't got the word out there we would not have received the loans and donations that we did.
