Topic: [SALE] LuckyFool / Caribbean Treasures MicroBits 999 Silver BTC Wallets!!!! (Read 808 times)

I will have a link or tool on my website that will give customers access to that information if they have lost their physical copy.

Until then, just message me for it

where can we locate or retrieve the addresses for the 1g bars?

That is a great shot that shows the full color. The slight bulge make the sword look like its coming out at you too.

Yeah maybe I can just send them in the mail with the physicals themselves, if that's preferred. Once they are larger and able to support a QR code, it will get rid of that need completely.

I thought about displaying them publicly like everyone else, but I'm not 100% sure this is the best way. I know if a bank displayed my account number publicly, I wouldn't want to bank there. We are dealing with a highly corrupt government that wants mass control. I don't want to make it easy for them by simply displaying them. Coming up with the best way to give to holders is easily solved by displaying the QR code, just doesn't work well for these smaller pieces that can't display it. I will have to discuss with others and the pros and cons of that being available to everyone out into the future.  

Thanks again for the nice photos!

Yes! You did send me the keys via dm. I'll print these and store these somewhere safe-ish.
Yeah, it's understandable that these things can't have any QR code on them, my god they are tiny. I am not the biggest fan of COAs, as now you have one vulnurable paper piece to take care of - however I'd still prefer it over a keylist to print for yourself.
Needless to say I love these bars, as expected. Just look at that fantastic hologram in my last pic.

My suggestion regarding keys: Upload these in some sheet-file form with pub keys, specific design and serial number associated, to a place where the pub keys are publicly available *forever* (ofc nothing really is) - so ideally on a platform that is not in your hands and cannot just be taken down (*coughTitanscam*).
Moonbits did a good job in this regard with their Github lists imho: https://github.com/LIMXTEC/MoonBits/tree/master

Those are some great beautiful photos!!! Thanks for sharing.
The public keys where sent to you in our private exchange on July 15th 3:41am

If they didn't show up for some reason, I can resend them for you. LMK

These are intended to be the foundation of a multi fractional trade unit release. Similar to having pennies, nickels and dimes or $1, $10, $20, $50 and $100's but these will be for transactions in small communities physically using bitcoin as a verifiable value holder as well as the metal content.

All public keys are kept by a 3rd party for whitelisting / anticipating regulations.
All holders will receive the public key for their specific piece physically printed or by digital means.

I'm moving away from having a bunch of paper slips for every piece created. Unfortunately, these pieces are to small to put a qr code on them thats readable. Goals for the future is to have every QR code pull up the public key as well as the website that gives all the stats that a COA would provide as well as a link to find more pieces for sale/trade.

If you would go to the bank and get a roll of $1.00 coins, they wouldn't give you a COA for each coin 25x, but you can look up the stats/composition or verify funded on the mints website. After 50 years of trades, I doubt many paper COA would still exist or be easily located anyway. Maybe if they weren't used and just sit in someones safe. I try to keep everything within the coin itself. If you hold the coin, you will have everything you need to verify/redeem/ trade. You wont need me, a personal website or have to locate a separate piece of paper to redeem or verify. Goals...

If someone has any good pointers for customized QR code builders options / website builders I'm all ears. I want it to be the easiest, most recognizable and reliable pieces out there on precious metals. I'm looking at them trading well beyond our years, when sats are all that's mined and traded.

I don't think people even realize the significance of physical bitcoins roll in freedom. The best part is that we get to live, witness and be part of it..
The best is yet to come.


 

Where / in which format do we get the public keys? I recently received my 1g bars (I love them - as expected) but no pub keys to be seen. COAs would be a great addition, though!
Have you seen the 1/10oz lealana coins? They come with baby-COAs, pretty awesome.

I promised some pictures of these cute bars. Here are some size comparisons :






(click images to enlarge!)

Just finished building all of mine last night. 0.009 BTC for a bag of 10 shipped.

Goal is to get them in the hands of as many people as possible, rich or poor. It doesn't matter if its through sales, trade, barter, tips or gifts.  

They will be more affordable than whats currently on the market. Still pricey compared to spot due to time and labor, but more economical in terms of access for people. Of course the more that is minted the cheaper prices can be, but I only have limited amounts of gold, so mintages won't be huge.

I don't think these little fracs will disappoint. I've been a stacker for a long time and during those weeks when funds are low, I would always just get the 1g-10g pieces. Yes, fractionals are more expensive, but at least I was still able to add to the stack, when $35-100 was out of the question. They are small enough that I'm going to mount them inside 10 nugget style mens rings. It will be an easy way to show and discuss physical wallets with people at parties.   Hit them with the 7500 sats piece when they least expect it. haha

Please post pics excited for you to get them.

Looking forward to some loaded mini-gold bars/coins. I hope they will still be affordable - I personally would love some 1, 2 or 3 g gold collectibles with a not crazy premium on spot price and still a low loaded denomination (less value or max same value as current gold value).
Just my two sats on the topic, but cool to see so many "weird" (meaning unusual) stuff in the making.

In around two weeks I'll hopefully hold my 1g bars in hands, excited to see these mini bars. Will probably post a few pics when they are here.

Thats part of the beauty of the small fundings, It doesn't make it attractive to redeem. I hope they can remain  intact for 100 years. If bitcoin goes to some high dollar value like 500,000usd, you can bet that most all Casascius pieces will be redeemed. These will still be affordable/tradable/collected by the majority as is. Even when all bitcoin is mined, the fractionals will still be relative, as most people wont deal in bitcoin because its to expensive. It will only be sats at that point. This is why I have selected to use Satoshi as the term used on the pieces. These are early, I'm aware. I wish someone would have made me cheaper fully funded bitcoins when I first started. The small "cheaper" pieces give more access to people who wouldn't have it otherwise.

I'm building a physical bitcoin barter/trade units on the islands, so it will have to have small fractions and have slowly increasingly larger sats with metal weight. You can't buy coffee or a fruit at the farmers market with a 0.01 btc. that would be ridiculous   , but you can pull out 7500 sats on 1g silver to make it happen. No need to use the blockchain for such transactions when you are simply trading access to it on physical. I know a lot of people will just want to hoard them, but I intend to use them as barter pieces.  You can do it 1000's of times between small communities of participating people. Similar to when coinage was in short supply and so they made territorial gold pieces. Caribbean Treasures is a territory and the sats on gold will be coming for those who want higher valued pieces. Personally, I prefer the small fractional pieces. And piles of them They always come back to you when trading in communities.

I'm a trader at heart, so I will also trade for silver, gold bullion, other physical wallets, collectables, other goods and services. On the island I have already traded for coffee, fruit, wine, rum, moonshine, ice cream, flowers, chickens, goats and butcher services. I also use as restaurant tips and payments when accepted.

Next release will be a bit bigger both in size and btc load amount

Hmm, I don't see the problem here. You can create a 1sat/byte transaction. Sure it may take a while to get through, but that's just around 110 sats spent for the entire tx-fee, still leaving you with 98 - 99% of your original Satoshis.
The number I remembered that's considered dust is way lower than 7500 Satoshis, around 500 sats.
Also, your argument about the bitcoin future, not sure if it's valid. If Bitcoin adoption and price goes up a lot, even tiny amounts of satoshis will be worth more. I guess we will find some kind of equlibrium for transactions fees in that. And max-blocksize (in MB) may be adjusted every once in a while, at the same time L2 solutions will reduce main-chain traffic (check out Ark, a possible alternative to Lightning if interested in more).

That said, personally I'd also prefer slightly higher loading values, 15 - 50k sats, but I still like the idea of these bars to long-term-hodl a lot.

I think the whole point of the small wallets was for them to basically be a tiny trade unit of bitcoin. Similar to how we as a society view Pennies or nickels. They were never supposed to have a large redeemable value as the entire allure of the MicroBits were their tiny size and funding amount

These are beautiful but one thing I will say is that I wish the load amounts were higher. UTXOs of 10,000 and 7,500 sats will most likely be un-spendable in a future high BTC fee environment

87 sold / 143 still available

37 LuckyFool 1g Silver BTC rounds sold / 193 remaining

All Caribbean Treasures pieces are stamped to represent the first pieces.

These bars are small so only the first 10 will be hand stamped. Mintage of 250. I typically keep them or give them to friends or sell at a premium.

The bar is 1 gram in silver weight ,next to a standard size copper 1 oz bar. The holo looks as if it is raining bitcoins into a pile of Caribbean Treasures.

Each piece will be capsuled. Each piece comes with a public key, so you can verify. No COA .

I like the lucky roll. Good touch to fit with the theme of your creations. These look great.

1 randomly selected LUCKYFOOL coin roll will come with a QR code key set that is funded with .001 btc so the owner can fund all 10 coins in the roll at face value of .0001 btc each! Must buy roll of 10 or more to have a chance!

28 sold

I can only speak for the LuckyFool rounds but a Roll will come with a COA stating it’s a sealed roll of (10) and which serial numbers are in that roll.  Singles will come with their own coa each. Rolls will come in a small jewelers style boy while singles will come in a small protective bag and inside of a sealed black envelope. As stated in post there are two payment addresses, 1 for each lot and both addresses are listed with said respective lots.

Good points by tweetious ↑

These look great and very different, would you have an image of these MicroBits next
to something else for scale reference?

On the 7500 Sats Bar just after the date there seems to be the number 1 stamped and a
number 1 with the hologram is there anymore info regarding this?

Each roll comes with 1 COA? If I order 9 coins, I will receive 9 COA (one for each coin) and if I place an order for 1 roll I will get 1 COA for the whole roll?

Does the "LOT 2: CARIBBEAN TREASURES 999 Silver Bitcoin Bar / FUNDED w/ 7500 sats" come with a COA?

How individual coins/bars (from lot 1 & lot 2) are packaged? Are those inside a plastic protective case/capsule? (to avoid possible tarnish during traveling - especially for long international distances..)

If we place a combined order (with items from both lots) do we need to separately send payment for each lot? Where we should send the shipping fees?

Said it before, gonna say it again, totally in love with these minimini collectibles - first of its size to be loaded afaik!
Can't wait to see these bars IRL. I probably want some of the luckyfool coins, too. Will shoot you a pm soon.

Great work guys and very cool colaboration. GG!
