[ANN] Ravenbit NODE physical coin

[fvs114]

I've received my coin yesterday and it's really nice.

I think QR code should be done with gold background - isn't it better than white ?

Nice picture!

Gold background is not a bad idea, as I think it might make a more seamless transition between coin and QR code. I'll look into it.

Just a 3.5? That is an insult, you should sue them for making you look bad.
No, but seriously, it's a nice review, even though I disagree with the rating and that the market is limited. I have bought so many coins lately.

I agree with both sentiments of yours, bitcoininformation. I think they should have given the Node coin a higher rating, and 1 of only 2 "cons" they had listed was- "Coin form factor not the most practical way to keep a bitcoin cold wallet"    But...   you're reviewing a physical Bitcoin wallet...   So I hope they at least list that as a "con" for every physical Bitcoin wallet they review from now on.

Also disagree with them saying the physical Bitcoin market is limited, and they used their past review article from September as an example. Except- all of the coins reviewed in that article are still available...  most of them straight from the manufacturer even (not the Casascius coins, obv.).

But all things aside- Congrats on the good review and publication, Tom and RavenBit! I have all of your coins so far except for the new silver Node, and love each one of them! Keep up the good work! Will get a fine silver Node as soon as I can as well.

Heh - I think it is a fair review, and certainly more coherent than the Bitcoin Magazine review of the Ravenbit Satoshi. I didn't ask Jon how he came up with the 3.5 rating, but I do agree the application of the QR code can be "fiddly". However, "fiddly" and "DIY" kind of go hand in hand. The physical bitcoin market is certainly not limited, but you may have to wade through the forum a bit to find some of the different releases.

Yes, the NODE is still available in the "gold" for $20, copper starting at $19 (price varies depending on individual number) and fine silver at $79. Send me a PM and I can send you a total BTC amount and payment address or you can order directly from the ravenbit.com. Shipping to the UK generally takes from 4-7 days.

Agree on the coin form factor and even Casascius is still selling aluminum rounds direct from his website (the last time I checked). Thanks! 8 NODE Silvers left!

mrbrt...I received your email today for your new NODE Antique Bronze.

Any chance you'll offer the remaining 15 at auction or as individuals?  I'd like one, but don't need 20.

Thanks.

I sent mrbrt a PM asking if he is willing to sell singles as well. If not, well, I guess that I'll have to do a group buy for them as I don't need 20 either.
