If i had to assign a value, it would be 100BTC+100BCH+100BTG+100BTP+... = ~118 BTC

unpeeled 'storage' bars commonly go for about 1BTC, and i think peeled 100BTC bar would fetch a similar price.

so anything <119BTC is a pointless offer, and 125BTC seems like a fair asking price

Well said you tasty ice cream treat!

125 btc seems like a reasonable price for both buyer and seller.

I love technology.
I am speechless as it's such a nice bar and you've held it for so long. Props.

The raffle inceptions would be real.

I'm surprised you had the stomach to hold on to this for so long!

Internal storage. Never thought of that. Explains that crafty 4-stomached cow and her never ending supply of chinese silver.

Speaking of raffles... I would not mind hosting it with minerjones escrowing the funds. I could probably make it work, get some news station in on it and people will come.. Raffleceptions have proven to work.

Raffles aside, great bar OP, I'm surprised you had the stomach to hold on to this for so long! Kudos to you.

I think first it would be good to know what John Galt wants for it and then divide that price by 256 to determine the raffle ticket price. If it's a reasonable ask, then perhaps those who are willing to buy it outright could buy the rest of the tickets and take a bit of a gamble if the value of a ticket is in line with what they were originally wanting to spend. I think it's important for the raffle to both get filled, and have the seller happy with the amount that it raises.

lol oh yeh the guy that owns it might have a say  Grin

well good luck with it John my final suggestion with something of this value would be have a chat with a Sothebys rep in rare coins   

http://www.sothebys.com/en.html

If sothebys would accept auctioning this not only do i think you will get more from the exotic collectors now that bitcoin is known everywhere but it would put cas coins on a whole new level, would be a great coup for this community.  Worst they can say is no thanks.

I would love to see the raffle to end all raffles
]

256 tickets at 0.5 btc each?

Surely it's a 1000 BTC coin or go home.

And 0.5 as a punt is pretty hefty. I can't think of too many going for it. At the very minimum as a consolation for not winning I'd want to spend a month inside Mike Caldwell.

So a 1000 btc bar with a 5 BTC entry I don't think that would ever fill up. 

I don't think there are that many people willing to bet half the average national salary of the USA on a raffle but what do I know

Lots and lots of enthusiasm... apart from the person trying to sell it. I would not be bursting with keenosity to do that either.

How many raffles have there been on here previously and how successful were they?


Two big and successful ones so far

0.5BTC per ticket - 256 slots.. Snowfucker to run raffleception after raffleception... I could get behind this type of shizzle

What about 256000 spots at 0.0005 BTC each? So everyone can afford to buy a ticket

That's something I could get behind

Raffle it!!!!

0.5BTC per ticket with feeder raffles of 256 slots giving 2 tickets to the big one @ 0.004 per ticket, that gives you a chance to get 1 ticket to the big one!


this would be crazy for the winner

imagine buying say 4 spots for 2 btc and winning the awesome huge(tiny) bar :O


Would certainly be fun and i would join to gamble Cheesy
