That's a nice one. I've been hodling crypto since 2013 and I'm not the type of person that likes to peel off coins.
I suggest you edit the OP and add the post with slots in it if you want to fill it anytime soon.

Let me help with the 1 3 bar Smiley

Thank you and good luck to everyone Smiley

Sounds interesting, i would be in this
Just saw this as well.  If still available, I will take a slot!

Has any of you, actually read the topic and the rules...? To be more precise, has any of you read this post made by AT101ET...?

In order to register you have to pick a bar and a slot... not just to mention here that you are interested. If your posts were not made just for spamming the forum, and you really intended to be part of this social experiment, then, at least, document yourself with what you have to do for being eligible to participate.

Hey OP, is this topic still on-going? It's been so much time since it was started and, so far, not all slots have been filled. Can the winner be announced even without having all spots filled? There are minimum chances for the slots to be filled, as nobody bumps the topic. Perhaps, even those which chose slots forgot they did it, given the amount of time...

I think that best approach is to choose a winner from those which signed up already or, at least, to announce that the topic is closed, to lock it and it will be official that nobody else can have any hope for winning this beautiful prize.

Opinions?

I totally did not want to seem impatient or demanding there. Maybe it sounded a bit like that.

Totally up to AT101ET, but there are alternatives to get things going I guess.

Currently 29 participants listed for 3 bars (48 raffle spots).

Can wait to fill them all up.
Run as is until a winner found for each bar.
Consolidate into two raffles and then do a "losers" bracket for the 3rd.
Could randomly assign 3 spots to everyone listed and do a 100 spot raffle with a few open re-roll spots and three winners, no repeats.

Just my 2 sats.  I'm more than happy to wait for this fun little game whatever the timeframe.

All of your alternatives sound good to me and I am obviously also happy to wait for the raffle a bit longer and even more excited about the actual game/experiment behind it.

Hopefully there will be a few more people willing to participate Tongue

Updated. Please see available slots below.
Hey there,
since there are quite a good amount of interested people but the slots just don't seem to get filled 100%, maybe we could just launch the experiment with less people.
The result should be the same I guess Tongue
Otherwise I am also cool with waiting another month :=)

open spots below - just have to scroll back thru. (I added HeRetiK and GazetaBitcoin)

Thank you for the update, MoparMiningLLC!

I was wondering what are OP's intentions about this nice raffle, regarding how much he decides to wait until running it, in case not all the spots are filled. As far as I see, the raffle was announced on October 26th and now we are on November 12th, so almost three weeks passed, yet there are still 23 free spots. And these 23 free spots represent almost a half of all slots available (which are 48).

Seeing all these (with sadness, as it seems not many are interested in this raffle), I doubt the remain slots would be filled soon so I was thinking if there is any chance to run the raffle without having all slots filled...? Anyone else sharing these thoughts as well?

Hey all!

Happy new ATH! BTC
We may have taken a slight dip but we’ll get back there in no time… Smiley
To celebrate this achievement and spread some love, I thought it’d be nice to try this little social experiment.
A couple of years back, I released a DIY hybrid BTC & ETH storage bar (see here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-vaultbar-hybrid-btc-eth-storage-bar-4355883).
I’m looking to give 3 of these bars away (shipped WW) to 3 users that are game.
The idea is that each user assembles their bar and loads each side with $100 of BTC & ETH.
These bars then have to be left untouched for a set period (say 2 years) before which they can be peeled and redeemed.
Ultimately, it’s a way of locking small funds into long-term storage and seeing how the price changes in that timeframe.
In essence, it’s a fun social experiment based on trust (and diamond hands).

Thoughts? Anyone interested in this? Grin




Bar #3 f please

If they're free (and you make the assertion that you don't have access to the prive keys etc), then yeh, I'm okay parking a couple of hundred (2 X $100 on each of BTC and ETH) and putting them in a safe for safe keeping for a couple of years.

I'll take two and do it twice to sweeten the deal.

Sorry, I'm not sure how I can sweep ETH and there are plenty of other people already, so I'll withdraw my request.

I may be late to the party, but I would also love one of those.
I like a lot the idea to add yourself the private key there.

I don't mind even if the address or tx ID is sent publicly. It will become a nice collectible.
Also obviously I don't mind if the time frame is (way) bigger than 2 years.

Wow! Some great responses and interest so far. As this is a community endeavour, I'm open to suggestions on how to proceed.

I want in. Generous on your part to put up bars and of course, I'm hodling anyway. Sounds like a great deal. Let's go : )

One question, are you saying the bars would be held in escrow, like with MJ, or with you? Or are you trusting the participants? How do you see this going down?

Gratefully

Steeley


I was going to trust the participants and just ask that they post the public keys to verify funding. Having an escrow hold the bars is an option too.

a long list of volunteers - how will the participants be selected? a raffle perhaps?

I love this idea! Looks like that might have to be the way Smiley

unfortunately I am incapable of making the keys and loading the bars myself but if I can send payment for a done option, where do I sign? And I will never peel a beautiful collectible so that part is easy

I am happy to generate and print keys per request but opted for DIY as a safer method. Alternatively, if using an escrow, they could also be responsible for key generation.

Would love to get a few more opinions before going ahead and finalising the terms.
Thanks for all the input so far! Smiley

unfortunately I am incapable of making the keys and loading the bars myself but if I can send payment for a done option, where do I sign? And I will never peel a beautiful collectible so that part is easy

I want in. Generous on your part to put up bars and of course, I'm hodling anyway. Sounds like a great deal. Let's go : )

One question, are you saying the bars would be held in escrow, like with MJ, or with you? Or are you trusting the participants? How do you see this going down?

Gratefully

Never peel, never redeem. The true value of physicsl bitcoin is that the art is to great to destroy and locked crypto inside becomes the base price for the value of the art. Once the world sees the beauty in this collaboration, physical crypto will be the most sought after collectable on the planet. We are the pioneers in this industry like the OGs before us. Spread the word, hold the physical, Never peel, Never redeem. Your children will sell them and the legacy will continue.

Hey all!

Happy new ATH! BTC
We may have taken a slight dip but we’ll get back there in no time… Smiley
To celebrate this achievement and spread some love, I thought it’d be nice to try this little social experiment.
A couple of years back, I released a DIY hybrid BTC & ETH storage bar (see here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-vaultbar-hybrid-btc-eth-storage-bar-4355883).
I’m looking to give 3 of these bars away (shipped WW) to 3 users that are game.
The idea is that each user assembles their bar and loads each side with $100 of BTC & ETH.
These bars then have to be left untouched for a set period (say 2 years) before which they can be peeled and redeemed.
Ultimately, it’s a way of locking small funds into long-term storage and seeing how the price changes in that timeframe.
In essence, it’s a fun social experiment based on trust (and diamond hands).

Thoughts? Anyone interested in this? Grin
