I still plan to pay out on it, and I would say my objective has been met.

Companies claiming they got hacked and lost your coins sounds like fraud so perfect it could be called fashionable. I never believe them. If I ever experience the misfortune of a real intrusion, I declare I have been honest about the way I have managed the keys in Casascius Coins. I maintain no ability to recover or reproduce the keys, not even under limitless duress or total intrusion. Remember that trusting strangers with your coins without any recourse is, as a matter of principle, not a best practice. Don't keep coins online. Use paper or hardware wallets instead.

I am so looking forward to it. Hey how about a second project where one can write BITCOIN CHECKS and SIGN them with private and public keys? |

Really like #3 and #4, but I'll go with Psy's #4.
Practical consideration: Should the "amount" line be visible when the private key is folded over? It would be a shame to have a great looking note and then have to write the amount onto the folded back in white space.
For example, if the amount line was over the Load & Verify QR (where the equation currently is), it would be visible whether or not the private key was folded over.

Mike is there a way we can have the user supply their GPG key and encrypt the private key so that in order to spent it he also needs to give the redemer the GPG thing to decrypt?
You know what I mean

Payouts! Out of $200:
$130 goes to Psy for being the winner
$50 goes to Bit-Pay. Factors leading me to put Bit-Pay in second place include responsiveness to adaptations.
$20 goes to the blue fractal design (but on HOLD pending conditions). While very appealing and got voted more than Bit-Pay, I chose to put it in third place mainly because the appeal comes from an excellent selection of background art more so than iterating it to meet the needs which included an emphasis on vector. This reward is also on HOLD pending someone showing me where this has been published in high resolution and the terms agreed to (and also I need confirmation that the background image that was used has a free license). If it is not published and/or the terms have not been agreed to by now, and/or the background image is rights-incompatible with use in this project, then the $20 is split between the other two winners.
Please post payment addresses for the rewards. Exchange rate used will be MtGoxLast at moment of transfer.

For those of us scrolling through the thread on our phones, it would be great to collect all the winners in the original post...just a thought...things like scrolling through 20+ pages or using the search feature is a major PITA. |

I sent the BTC to the donation address in this link... 1EUbpbRV68Rap4JcQFkfxd2urgv9hLy2uu Received! Thank you. I will tell my friend to drop by the thread and thank you and all who donated so far! BTW, the green note, is almost ready. Only my part missing, which is converting the PSD layers into vector objects. Let's see if today I take a few hours from goofing around and get it done  |

I have drafted a proposal for how I think password-protected private keys should work, and published it in the Wiki. Thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=97752.0Wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/User:Casascius/Base58Check-encoded_objects_proposal |
