i dont really understand how it is related to digital money Huh
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)!

Cryptographic money will be the bedrock in time.
I know some people have expressed concern that some mints are being shut down in that they have not been registered with FinCEN.

Alitin Mint is a registered money transmitter with FinCEN and is also licensed in the State of Missouri. I believe they are doing everything above board.

Why place an English face on the coin. That sort gives off the impression that the English are responsible for the creation of BTC.
Hmm?

Who do you want to put? An American? Cheesy

No one. Satoshi has yet to be discovered so why associate BTC with anyone else?

When will these (the first coin) be available?

Looks like the first ones will ship sometime in November, first come first serve. I may be able to hook a few of you up for pre-orders.

Yes, I would like to see a picture of the tamper proof case when you get a chance.

Haven't actually purchased them. Just spoken for 5 of them. I'm sure they will be in the 500-600 range depending on the price of silver and bitcoin when released of course.

Forgot to mention that they will publish all of the bitcoin addresses online and a status for each coin. Around 50 have been pre-sold. I am buying 5 myself.
If you bought 5 then you should know the price Huh
