i dont really understand how it is related to digital money
These are coins backed by bitcoins. A little like silver certificates are dollars backed by physical silver.
What happens when one bitcoin is worth double the amount of that coin?
I can make them myself and collect the profit?
One bitcoin (about $1000) is already worth more than the silver (2 oz, about $40) in the coin. You can make your own coins now if you are so inclined. What the heck are you going on about?
The coins cost 2 BTC + a premium for the silver and profit to the creators.
Story:
Back in the day
someone bought a one ounce gold coin with 1000 BTC pasted on it with a sticker. IIRC at that time the value of the gold and the value of the 1000 BTC were about the same. Now look at it! The value of the gold has gone
down and the 1000 BTC is now worth about one million dollars (give or take a few $100,000)!
What i am going on about, is the fact that you are saying this is backed by BTC. It is not. If it is an art piece, go for it. Sell the 600 to people that want a piece of history, but don't expect to be spending these at walmart a couple years down the road.
I'm worried a scammer is going to make 100,000 coins and sell them on amazon and ebay to people expecting them to be "that new bitcoin that everyones been talking about"
Fast forward 5 years and we have mini federal reserves printing physical bitcoin out of thin air.
Edit: Just decyphered the hand writing on the pic and realized they have a private key to redeem the actual bitcoin. That i am okay with, because someone cant just print 200 of them out of thin air.
