if someone would like to sell theirs - I would like to buy one - peeled or unpeeled - it is one of the polymerbit notes I do not have.

Offer still stands for replacement.

As of 23.12.2023, the note in my collection is still intact and loaded. Nevertheless, we still recommend peeling.

Has anyone else peeled? How did it go?
My private key seems to be invalid. Importing in coinomi as well as desktop electrum wallet failes - import/sweep is just skipped without any error message popping up.
Any suggestions?

I swept mine no issues. I used Ballet.


Ah, that would have been my next attempt. It did work, I left electrum open and running for ~20 minutes, the transaction did eventually show up. Sorry for the fuss.

Anyone receive a replacement-bill yet? I am still considering if I want to that (it's a very generous offer, no doubt) or keep the original-"original". While kept in the protective cover it's barely noticeable at all that the private key area was opened.

Edit: Worked with electrum after ~15 minutes. Before that no tx showed up. *phew*

very nice gesture from polymerbit - i prefer then the option #2
i am also in possession of a 10 year anniversary note and will then unfortunately have to peel this in the next few days.

Still haven't peeled (I know it's probably one of the more stupid gamles out there, roulette has better odds, that's for sure).
But rn I can't access the note for over 1 month, so fingers crossed. Last time in hand (already post-yogging) I didn't have the heart to do it. Next time I'm gonna do it and accept polymerbit's replacement offer.

unrelated - but any new polymerbit releases in the works? really like the ones I got

Yes there are, we have been working on our clear window tech.

I'm also excited for Bitcoin 2023 (Miami) and have been quite busy preparing notes for this.

Yogg is really the gift that keeps on giving (sweeping)


The notes are still intact at this time. We however have no way of guaranteeing they will remain loaded. This is why we are strongly advising to redeem.

I also would be willing to buy one and pay the $50 load value on top of the note value

Since (1) I collect Polymerbit notes, and (2) I hate to see these notes peeled, please feel free to hit me up if you have one of these Yogg-compromised notes. I'll take it off your hands.

Regards,

I was lucky enough to win a raffle to then be able to purchase one of these notes. I remember feeling excited about owning a loaded polymerbit.

Now, I don't know if I should peel it. This is a sad day for the community, and Yogg has truly destroyed many years of trust that took many more to build.

But something I also noticed today is that the community has bonded and become stronger in many ways.

Thank you Polymerbit for offering this solution! You are truly one of the greats.

I peeled mine.. i have an extremely small and lower denomination collection. Something like this feels like big chunk of my btc gone, especially when these kinda collectibles has more value in premiums than the actual load amount. Destroying about 20 coldkeys valuing at load value of .13btc is almost like loosing about .4BTC..

It’s not much for some OGs but big hole in the wallet for the new members..

I think peeling anything related to Yogg is the right thing to do. However, I’d be surprised if there are more coins he could steal that he hasn’t already.

Another thing I would say to caution folks is to take a good look at the design style and the manufacturing techniques used. I would bet that if he did this to you all now, he’s likely already hard at work pushing other loaded products to the community using an alt that will eventually be rug pulled. Be safe and be suspicious of anyone trying to sell you preloaded goods.

Well guys, I'll be the Guinea pig here, since I'm not peeling this damn note. Why? Because I have lost thousands overnight already, so fuck it... Plus I love this damn note, it's awesome!

Oh no. Almost forgot about these. I loved these notes and paid a massive premium in a previous auction. ffs
Thanks for bringing this to our attention, polymerbit!

Because of the loss of value, we've decided to offer the following. I know it cannot replace it fully, but I hope it helps to compensate.

Anyone who owns one of these notes, and have peeled it due to the crisis... we will offer a trade in program.

We will accept these notes in return for either 1) a $100 polymerbit gift card, or 2) an updated version of this note in clear window, with our keys (unloaded).

The gift card will be valid for the life of the company and can be sent/sold to other users.

Never a sad day in Physical Crypto collectible world. Always a savior..

Kudos to polymerbit for doing this…

As I also appear on the back of the note, I would like to say that I am not related to the private keys generation, nor to any other "technical" things on this edition.

I was with him when these were produced. I'm pretty sure the notes are safe and there's no private keys backup, but who knows, I'm shocked by what has just happened

I don’t own many bitcoin collectibles. I’m new to this hobby. I bought a Titan (compromised). A coldkey collection (compromised). I also own 1 polymerbit note, its this one (compromised). The fucking trifecta. I’ll be selling all my collectibles over the next few days/weeks. Well done guys you got me good.

From the information we have gathered, the keys at this time are intact.

We are recommending this action to err on the side of caution.

To be clear I’m not upset with Polymerbit. I just don’t need the aggravation, stress and negativity that this place is riddled with. Nothing but scammers and thieves. No thanks. I’d rather go touch grass.


Read clearly , Priva key was done by JOGG..

I apologise for the informal manner of this thread...but time is of the essence. As you know, there is a situation with ColdKey. Speculation is rife; and there is evidence of private keys being compromised.

For the safety of our clients, I'm releasing this PSA.

We recommend to peel any ten year anniversary notes immediately.

We are offering a trade in program, read in the comments.



Early 2019, 21 pcs, loaded.

The keys on these notes were not made in house, and we cannot verify the integrity at this time.

----------

No other polymerbit notes are affected.
