I might start a new group buy, just for the new 2015 coin. It looks amazing!

I still just don't see the functionality of it being a physical bitcoin, its more like a collectible not a coin/wallet that should represent currency since it is not easily able to obtain the currency it represents and stores.
Technically it is a physical Bitcoin.
The maker itself said that it should be considered an ART piece.

Stop with the ignorant comments.

Wow, the 2015 Kialara is amazing! You bring such unique works of art to the physical Bitcoin market, and come at it from a completely different angle than all others. I still need to get the 2014 model, I'm really falling behind now!

My question is for these, say worst comes to worst and someone wants to open the wallet that is attached to these coins, how do they do it? It seems like these are impossible to open entirely. I think these are beautiful but lets all remember the actual functionality too. Can someone explain how someone could go about opening it without completely destroying it?

I would say if you plan on pulling the 0.10 BTC from it in the future, then to not fund the coin in the first place. I don't think these are really designed to be "opened" down the road. Just like I wouldn't open a Casascius coin though basically, because the unopened coin will always be worth more. If I had a funded Kialara coin that I wanted to spend the Bitcoin from, I think I would just sell/trade the funded coin for a higher value than 0.10 BTC, rather than just destroying it to get the 0.10. Just my opinion though, and I've been pretty sick the past few days so I feel a bit off & like I'm rambling.  Undecided

Who would do such a thing??  Only a Monster.  Sell it on whatever the eBay is and keep your hands clean.

Only a Monster that made me laugh Cheesy.

I agree these are collectibles that can be used to store bitcoin but the face value is so small if it was loaded for that amount I couldn't see anyone breaking one open to redeem it.

I'm working on one for Bitcoinist but you can contact me and we can see about getting one to you and have you do it instead and then I can do mine for CCN.


hm would love to review one of these for CryptoArticles.com and possibly even Bitcoinist/BTCFeed.

Too bad there is a 5 minimum for us Europeans.....but maybe I can find some other interested parties Smiley

I have received the case and my Kialara just barely fits into it. However, it looks great! Grin

Hahaha yeah I was tired as f*ck...
You could begin a business pinning those Bitcoin logo's on various products Tongue
That's not even a bad idea to be honest. I will keep that idea in the back of my mind. Might even start selling "Kialara" cases with nice Bitcoin logo's. Hahaha.
