Hello! I'm now searching for these two coin "Buyer Funded" addresses as I must have aquired these coins from you? As far as tracking down the public addresses for these coins I have hit a dead end as well.

I purchased some of the new Lealana coins Smoothie created and asked if he would be so kind as to provide the public addresses for these coins if he had them but he never responded to that request. :/

I wish there was someway to track these addresses down. Such a shame to think they are lost forever.

Unfortunately, the only way is from the very original buyer. Smoothie will not answer or reply to these types of requests as when they were sold, they were sold based on privacy. People who re-sell items like this either might have literally no idea and just discard the list, who knows, but finding that "guy" who may or may not even have the PGP-signed list anymore... Well... After some time, I'd just consider them lost forever, but regardless, they still have value, so hodl on... Wink

Thank you for the response. It makes sense that these were sold based on privacy but the original buyer never funded the coins which is why the addresses do not show up on the blockchain? So, I don't understand why it would be an issue to provide them since only the holder/owner can peel the back to redeem them.

I did purchase these coins as collectibles and being naive I didn't realize the addresses would be unrecoverable. I figured since they weren't funded smoothie wouldn't have an issue providing the them. But, I love the coins as collectibles and am very happy to own a couple pieces of Bitcoin history either way. I am just a completist and it kills me I don't have the addresses too. LoL

I appreciate you taking time to respond though.

1. You can upload the images to imgur.com and post here the links. Then somebody will quote your post so they're visible. You cannot make them visible until you rank up.

Imgur.com is not working properly these days, and as a result many of the images posted in the forum are unavailable or not visible anymore. Better use TalkImg.com, a service that has recently been created by the member joker_josue and has already been vouched for by the administration of the forum.

Hope is the last thing to lose. With some good luck he/she will eventually find the owner and get the reward. But, as you said, even in the worst case scenario, they still have some value independently on the Bitcoins or satoshis they may or may not cointain.

Can't figure out how to add images or I would!

1. You can upload the images to imgur.com and post here the links. Then somebody will quote your post so they're visible. You cannot make them visible until you rank up.
2. From what I know, one method to find the address is to go to https://www.walletexplorer.com/ and post there the part of the address you have. They'll try to get you the full address.

For example for 1BTCfifq taken from here: https://images.greysheet.com/l/blogs/20211201/510a07e0-83a8-49a1-8ad8-410b39299274.jpg
I've got 1BTCfifqJmZFJxaEoiRGSz8nCRM6SMNcmQ showing 0.1 BTC on it.

Thanks for the tip! I left out a few key points in my original post... they are both buyer funded, black addresses. From what I can find they are a mintage of 10 each if I'm not mistaken. Because they are unfunded, the public address has no references in the blockchain; therefore unsearchable using walletexplorer. Perhaps because they were the lower mintage, there was a list kept of them.

I apprecaite the tips - still searching. Going to post in the collectibles section as well. Thanks all!

Bitcoin needs you!

It may well be worth asking this in the collectibles section of the forum - this is where smoothie (lealana coin maker) held a lot of sales and there’s a lot of information and informed members there.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=217.0

You can have a look at this list too

http://lealana.com/fulllistltc.txt

I’m sure There is another list somewhere - just can’t find it at the mo. - I’ll keep looking though

Hey everyone! This is my first post on the forum. I have a couple Lealanas that did not have the public address when I purchase them. I know this is a needle in haystack request, but if any of you happened to own them in the past and still have the public address, I'll send you btc as a reward!

1 BTC Gold "B" is serial #1346
.5 BTC is serial #2604
Both are "Buyer Funded" Black Address. I believe the Lealana is 1 of 10 produced!
