I mentioned this in your auction thread, I noticed all sets have identical BTC addresses.
Now it doesn't mean that everyone will fund the coins however even if sold empty someone may want to do that at a later date by themselves, as a present or something.
The problem I can see is that you also sell them as singles not only sets. So potentially someone may be sharing private keys with someone else.
I got sets anyway, just in case
Set #1
Set #27
Well, this is certainly an interesting situation, and one that has not come up before.
Good job spotting this before any individual coins were sold, coin@coin.
So, 3 coins, but they all share the same private/public key? So, you fund one, you're not funding the coin, but the "set of coins".
Please explain why you did this. I will definitely not be funding them now. What are my options for 3 different
private addresses (not just public)?
As I said, it was most certainly not intentional. Which is why if anyone is unhappy about the 1 address per set, I can work something out with them. The coins were supposed to have 1 address for EACH coin, not each set. I obviously can not sell them individually now which hugely stinks for me. But, I guess its not the end of the world.
I was actually planning on getting Set 100 Funded with something like 0.05
BTC each, and keeping it for myself.
Knowing now that the same addresses and private keys are engraved on all 3 coins in the set, I will not be doing this. Anything loaded on them will be on all 3 coins anyway.
I am glad you didn't sell any individual coins yet, that could have been disastrous..
i would like to ask a security question .. ( apart the fact the same public & private keys are engraved on each same coins of a set..)
-do you engrave public and private keys by yourself on the coins ?
( cause if not, it could be a serious security issue to give a key list for engraving , to any mint...)
( wich is certainly not a real issue if coins are bought only as collectors coins , and not used as a cold storage.. )
The coins were engraved by the company who struck the coin.
I presume that because of this, no one would recommend funding these anyway, as the keys could be compromised? ( this is just a question
)
I will have a think on what to do Rmcdermott927. I won't be asking for a refund as I personally like the coins, and feel they are worth the $60 I have paid for each set.
The public addresses being the same on all 3 coins in the set is a bit of an issue though.
