Topic: [Interest Check] Custom Designed Satori Coins - page 3. (Read 1188 times)

Interested in a bundle of em. I see a graphic someone posted in thread, and unfortunately, my color of choice is not there. Purple. Purple just jives with orange so well. Next choice would be Blue (bluechip stocks anyone) & it also is a good counter color to orange.  As for the design... I'm no designer, but my preference would be to bastardize their current design in a minor manner. I actually really like the holo (reflects interestingly at different angles in the light) and the front side, I certainly wouldnt remove the moto "value doesnt exist outside the consciousness of man"  (I might be off, didnt check).  The rest of the design is up for debate, though I also like the interlaced different color circles encompassing the BTC in the center. Alter the colorway perhaps.  same with the red ziggy zaggy.

If we wanted to appeal broadly, keeping changes minor like this, but visually appealing/impacting seems to be 1. the route of least resistance to reach consensus among us, and 2. maintains brand identity/recognition. Custom is good, but exclusive isnt inclusive and thus could be viewed negatively a la the old guys country club. & 3. require the least alterations of their current process.

If we opted to go a route like this, securing their current image docs and working off of those would go a long way for ease, if they're open to it.

That'd be awesome to have different colors.
You can already count me in the next GB if you chose to handle it !

Just for info, what was that previous "bitcointalk coin" that was made ?
What happened ?

It sounded like that was the direction it was headed but in any case I'd like to see these prospective designs being whipped up and voted on!  

If this is going forward what will be the deadline for submissions?

Hhampuz your looking at it wrong you shouldn't put bitcointalk on there , should just make it a different design yes but not forum related

I don't know why a lot of you are assuming it will have something to do with bitcointalk .. I didn't mention anything of it in the OP, did I?

We'll just have people here come up with designs and then we vote, that's all

I think this is a great idea, and I'd love to be a part of it.  The only caution I would say is to not deviate too much from the original design because we will never agree on a right approach, and it will only prolong the ordering process.  

Just the thought of having a different color satori coin would be worth pursuing, IMO.  It would certainly offer a special premium for not being a traditional orange Satori.  

Sounds interesting and I'll be watching to see how this plays out.  I'm on the fence about the idea if it's forum related but I think it will come down to the design and execution.

I agree that BCT shouldn’t have a part on the chip itself. I feel like this is for us like Hampz said, but also I’d like to be able to gift these like I have been and if I weren’t a user here I’d want nothing to do with BTC on my coin.  A small hidden mark wouldn’t be bad tho if some really wanted it.

My vote is for a brand new front.

Yes it can originate here but i would definately sell to a larger audience past here.  4-6 years ago yes it was basically here and a couple other small spots but the whole point is to further the reach of crypto.  A unique piece from satori would be great to give/sell to an audience that doesnt "live" here

Fair points. But then again I don't see this as creating a product for the purpose of reaching a broader audience.. This would be our own Satori Chip and I'm sure most of the people here would keep theirs, not try and flip them somewhere else.. The people that took part in the Satori GB's were all from here, none from the outside

Interested to, pref a funded one.

OK bud

As of now Moto would get to work on answering all of these questions actually, he told me to give him 1-2 weeks and then he'd have a rough draft for me on all of the numbers.

I believe it is possible to change the front of the hologram, not the back. Other than that I really am as clueless as the rest of you guys

How would this work H ?

What are the minimum numbers of chips
Would there be a fee for the 'custom chip manufacturing setup', the holos and chips (I guess fiat denominated), plus funding (BTC denom'd)

I am assuming the closest we stick to their original chip design the better, costwise (maybe just a different colour ?).
Unsure how it would work on the holos ? would they be a different holo ? would the numbering start from 1 ? Is a design needed for this ?

Elephant in the room. Funding

I am guessing that Satori wont start a custom chip, without at least that FIAT denominated amount. So I am assuming there would be a need for pre ordering

Possibly the chip funding amounts could happen nearer shipping time. Do we know a lead time (estimate) from order to shipping

Yeah i would stay away from bitcointalk.org focused chip but i dont think that was the intention viz, i think it was to secure the idea for the required moq and see if some people here can strum up some design ideas.  If thats the case then im in, only if they are loaded, there arent many people selling loaded coins/chips these days.  Id say a submit your design people who commited funds vote on design and go forward.  Im in depending on pricing.

In the unlikely case that your design were to win, then it would be used to create the custom chips, yes.

Then I would be in charge of the design, right?

Then it wins?

What if my design wins?

You can feel free to submit your design just like anyone else, you won't be in charge of designing this thing though
