Topic: [Auction] The Original 'Buy Bitcoin' Sign - page 2. (Read 569 times)
looking for a knockoff replica of this. google searches aren't helping. any idea where i could find?
A pretty cool item and a unique piece of Bitcoin history. Must be exciting even to be the auction house chosen to auction it. With 5 days still to go and a price over half a Bitcoin already, it looks to be a successful endeavor already. Congratulations to everyone involved.

This image offers the best proof, with donations to the BTC address starting right after the timestamp. You can inspect the handwriting by comparing it to other auction images.
Those near Pubkey can inspect the sign IRL on the final auction day.
'Bitcoin Sign Guy' will also issue a COA in buyer's preferred format.
Hopefully this helps!

Scarce City, Congrats on being selected to auction this item. It is absolutely iconic in the bitcoin history. I laugh every time I see clips of Yellen and the sign being held up.
Also want to say this, I love your site and the artistic freedom you promote. If I was an artistic creator, then your site would be a so helpful.
I love that I can see previous auctions and the results. I hope you never remove this.

And drop the shitcoins: NFTs and ordinals.
Bitcoin only. We're trying to fix the money. Everything else is a distraction.
while I agree with you and dont care for the XCP NFT's and/or ordinals, many would argue that both are run on Bitcoin. No differently than LN is.

this is going to be expensive - I hope to get a few bids in but I am sure I wont be the one to win it lol
someone jumped it from 1 million sats to 10 million sats in one bid - wonder if he meant to make that a max bid lol
