well we did not win the investor presentation, but we definitely got a good number of new bitcoiners from the effort!  I will link to the video once they post it.

Our business DID sell the most orders out of all the startup candidates, so thanks guys for your support!!

I expect to have the holograms in house by next weekend, so the first batch of cards should be able to ship around April 2.

Why does the expiration mean on the front of the card? You don't take back the bitcoins if left unused for a certain period of time....right?

Hardforks aren't that hard. It’s getting others to use them that's hard.

I am still waiting on the holograms to come in, but they have shipped so it should be any day now.

The expiration date will be used for future capabilities.  All cards purchased now do not expire.

The idea is that if you buy this for someone and give it as a gift, if they lose it or don't redeem the bitcoins by a certain date, you get the bitcoins back!  So it is a low-risk way to spread the word about bitcoins to your friends and family.

Has anyone gotten theirs yet?  First impressions? I can't wait to see how they stack up against my bitbill set.

We're about to ship them out. Just making sure everything is perfect.
Don't want to send something out we aren't proud of.

We're actually just about to ship them. I finally finished the program that lets us easily generate them.
So if you ordered expect them soon. Smiley

How's it going?  This is why I didn't spend much...I'm starting to think that was wise :-/

Looks like it scans with a QR code. What if I don't have a reader?

You mean you don't have a camera, or phone? Well, you can redraw it in paint, and it'll probably still scan fine.

Oh. It was my (false) assumption that you needed a smartphone with an app. That seems to be the most widely used implementation.

So, I mentioned five days ago that it had been two weeks since the last update, and I still haven't gotten a response. I'm starting to think I got scammed. Bit-pay has a good reputation around here, so I'm not too worried. But the lack of any response is definitely disconcerting.  Sad

Well done! How do they work?

I'm guessing you can't swipe them or only use partial amounts. You either redeem the whole thing or none at all?

They look like they could be used as cash though, instead of paper, they are plastic cards.

I like!

Some more info would be nice, though.

I just found this and it seems exciting; however, I dont' see a response to how do they work?

Any details, or a link to a website where I have to go will suffice.

I would love to get some of these with expiration dates so that I could leave them in geocaches.

I've been leaving a flyer directing them to an instawallet website, but this could be another method (although it comes with a cost).  Meh, seems like it might be worth it as no one seems to be taking my fliers... haha  Peeps aren't interested in free bitcoins I guess...

Coinbase for selling BTCs
Fold for spending BTCs
PM me with any questions on these sites/apps!  http://www.montybitcoin.com


or Vircurex for trading alt cryptocurrencies like DOGEs
CoinNinja for exploring the blockchain.

My understanding is that this is a totally legit business plan but totally legit folks. But I'm sure that these are real people with real lives....jobs, kids, health, etc. I am hoping they can ship soon, but I more just want them to iron the business details out. This idea is too good and will benefit the community too much to fail.
