- 3 stars

I think I missed it. I can't find what the 2 star / 3 star means.

It's a marking on the coins/blocks

I'm not quite sure, but if I had to guess, there's gonna be another one for each halving
(1 star for 50BTC blocks, even though imaginary, 2 stars for 25BTC blocks, the current ones, 3 stars for 12.5BTC blocks, next week and after that 4 stars for 6.25BTC blocks in 4 years)

At what value will the coin be declared upon shipping? Will it be the full value or the winning bid minus the BTC contained in the block?

I do not intend to pay 5BTC+ fees upon import so this is quite important to know if I want to join the bidding

We will declare customs value of $100 for the Titanium collectible, and ship it via FedEx or DHL, and signature required for delivery.
(we will self-insure the item, and won't as shipper to insure.)

thanks,
Bobby

These look very nice, were are they made?

Will production continue past halving with 12.5btc bitcoin blocks being made?

The physical block of Titanium was made in China, and custom designed by BTCC in every aspect.
Final assembly (stickers, private key) is done by me personally.

The bitcoins are newly mined from the blockchain by BTCC Pool; they're straight from the block reward, part of the coinbase transaction.

Yes, after the block halving, we will continue to make Bitcoin Blocks (if they sell!), but those would be:
- 3 stars
- with 12.5 BTC in block rewards (plus varying amounts of transaction fees)

So the 25+ BTC Bitcoin Blocks would become extinct and no longer produced after this Saturday!

thanks,
Bobby

I believe that issue was cleared up a while back.

Expect to pay a vat of winning bid minus 26.033. Of course the gov/customs can do whatever they want.

Many thanks for clearing this up, my apologies if I missed the post where this was explained Wink

Let's get on with it and move it all the way to 30BTC and match the other blocks.

(I can't say it's the largest block ever mined, but certainly, it's very rare to see a block with over 26 BTC in size.)

Sorry, but you're not even close.

https://blockchain.info/block-index/1081405/

You're correct, however:

I was referring to our mining of blocks to make our Bitcoin Block collectibles.

We're making roughly 100 of these pre-halving, and we've already mined 65 up until now, and this is the largest one so far.

thanks,
Bobby
