Okay sorry for the continued off-topic smooth...

Yes there are regulatory issues for funded coins (funded by me) and these coins would need to be buyer-funded as I currently do with all of my coins now where I never hold customer coins.

For all future questions and to be respectful to smooth, If you folks have questions please PM me or create a thread to discuss it. Currently I am still considering the idea but nothing is concrete as I like to make sure I have everything in order and tested before I start any sort of production of this type of product.

Here we discuss how to make it happen. Will it be the same thing as loading a physical LTC? Will it be in any other material other than silver/gold? What fits for XMR?

Ok, sounds good.

So to make them you need a short form of the privatekeys, i guess you can´t print 24 words from the deterministic keys on the hologram?

We could prolly make deterministic seeds that need just the first 4 chars of the word to work, would that help?

[dnaleor]

he also mentioned that these coins will be self funded. So how does that work. How do we know the address to send XMR too without printing the complete address on the coin?

about denominations:

I would prefer just a "1 XMR" coin, 1 ounce silver

He can just write the address of each coin on a thing called Paper and include it.

aha, lol, yeah

As I've said previously, this is something I am considering.

But at the same time I would like to take my time and make sure I have everything in order and tested for key generation as well as importing.

Hopefully I am able to write some code to generate small enough keys to fit on the coin (if there isn't already open source software out there to do this).

Give us a break.

She's a little dreamer,  yes she is.  Litecoin.  No, it was not enough to her,  not enough.  A heart filled with greed and hatred.

A fruity smoothie - yet shafting through its core - rotten foulness and depravity.

Not eternally.  No.  A cancerous shadow will come upon her and strike suddenly and devastatingly.

Yes thank you!

I've been waiting for this day to come! 

To know we have such strong support in the XMR community from smoothie has to be bullish!

Platinum could be used

i would be into a physical Monero if it looked timeless and valuable.

smoothie - can you get coins manufactured that look like old roman currency?

Cool!
Bitcoin = gold to Monero`s Platinum

That gave me a chuckle. We'll see.

Physical Monero coins ?

TAKE MY MONEY NOW !!

[Lloydimiller4]

Any updates on the idea Smoothie?

No updates at the moment.

Of course if BCX destroys XMR there will be no point in creating physical XMRs right?

Now I get it, Smoothie is is doing physical coins.

Things are much clearer now.


@Smoothie

Why didn't you just say so. His Leanlana coins are kickass.

Why should I say anything when I have 0 development on physical monero to date?

Thanks for the compliment.

I am being 100% real here.

Smoothies coins are excellent.

Likewise hence why I thanked you. Once again thank you BCX. 

But to be clear I have 0 stake in physical moneros to date. Some day I may create them but I would rather take my time.

@smoothie

So just curious, why did BitcoinEXpress post your government ID on this public forum claiming it to be me?
