I think sequential #'ing for rolls would be a good way to distinguish roll purchases vs. acquiring/collecting small amounts over time..as a collector one can appreciate the roll a bit more

Question:
For a roll of chips - would the serial #'s be sequential or random?
For a roll of chips - would the serial #'s be sequential or random?
The only sequential numbers will be for the 6 x poker chip sets.
Anything else will be random as stated by BTCC.
If there's a demand for sequential serial numbers for the rolls, then we'll try and give out sequential numbers when we can, for future orders.
For the "6-color Signature set", all 6 chips have the same serial number, just different "A" through "F" prefix.
(the 200 different sets have different serial numbers, sequentially from 001 to 200.)
thanks,
Bobby

Wow they look awesome! Congratulations BTCC!!!
I doubt that they will ever be used for playing poker though

After seeing some more close up pictures from users here I can only agree. They look so damn crisp!
The 100k is my favorite by far! Looks really clean and cool.
About the poker part, I'd love to crack these open and play with them, perhaps meet up some fellow bitcoiners and do so. Can't wait until I have some in my hand to get the feel of them

Today we launched Bitcoin Chips, a new set of fun and affordable bitcoin collectibles for bitcoin enthusiasts. Bitcoin Chips come in six denominations that range from 1,000 bits (0.001 bitcoins, roughly $0.70) to 500,000 bits (0.5 bitcoins, roughly $356.10).

Hi Bobby,
I ordered some of these great looking chips but it seems that there might be a problem with my order. The webpage didn't refresh after I paid via my Electrum wallet. The Tx also took very long time to confirm but it's ok in the blockchain now.
I didn't get a confirmation email from BTCC neither
I mailed to support@ yesterday but till now I didn't receive any reply.
Could you help me out please?
Thanks.
edit: got in touch with support

November 22, 2016, 05:32:00 PM
rolls of 20 1k chips has sold out .... I am sure they will be back though

I do like the black one but the purple one is not bad looking either. My 2 favorites, also the most valuable!

"affordable"

Considering to buy one just because of how sexy the 100k bits one looks, and if you get one you gotta get em all.

The black 100k bits one is definitely my favorite. If someone put that on the table during a poker game, you know they mean business.
Yup. That 100k black chip is definitely the best looking one out the lot. I just couldn't resist.
My poor wallet was NOT expecting to be raided quite like it was

The fresh coins part is the biggest selling point for me.
Same here and also why I have a few of these coins so far, one 1 btc v series, graded as MS69 even!

I had a look around the site... I really like your products, they look sweet but I think anyone buying this stuff is nuts. Take for example the set of 5 x 5 Bitcoins, your asking price is 32BTC. Basically I would be paying 7BTC for the artwork, a bit of titanium (which is not expensive) and a wooden box. That's around US$5,000 which I think is outrageous. So... yeah, cool stuff, liking the innovation but ... seriously you all need to be committed.
I can only imagine how silly this thread is going to be in 2 years from now when BTC is $5,000. It will be bitcoin pizza 2.0. People paying $35,000 for a wooden box wtf.

It's true that the 5 x Five Bitcoin is priced at a premium.
But the way we look at it, it's premium priced not because of the wooden box, but rather the fact that you're getting 5 huge Titanium coins, the largest of its class, containing pristine Bitcoins, newly mined and all from the same block. A piece of history, not to mention the limited issuance. Never again!
The only analogy, let's use gold here, would be to get 5 of the largest gold coins, straight from a world class gold mine, all created from a single nugget of gold, mined and created on the same day, without any impurities or recycling of gold from other sources. New and pristine. And you new what: limited edition and any large gold coins (5+ oz!or 1 Kg bar) command a larger % premium over regular 1 oz coins. And of course you would get a really nice wooden box with that!
That's our explanation of our pricing premium at both ends of the spectrum: the larger the piece, the higher the premium. Smaller pieces also have higher premiums (when measured as a percentage) due to their manufacturing inefficiencies.
And like you said, all this will be moot in a few years when BTC is over $5,000+.
(I think it will happen, which is why we prominently list our coins in the Bits unit of Bitcoin.)
Also sort of like how people reacted to the amazing 1,000 BTC Casascius coin when that was released. No one bothered buying it, and look, now there are only 3 in existence!
Thanks,
Bobby
I think your coin prices are more than fair overall. My favorite part is the fresh coins they get funded with...really unique. Keep up the great variety and can't wait to see what you guys create next.
