If anyone really wants to read all the updates I typed up, you can on this google doc. But I'm going to start trying to clean this page up.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GWsg0OaRyV7r-GLEwZOYyBNsfRq-rbFS-GpOmSatsTY/edit?usp=sharingA new type of collectable:
The KryptoKap Dice(KryptoKaps or just Kaps)
Note, these are basalt sample kaps. See the video for the black marble final edition.
Before and after silver paint: And here's some that better show the finish and dimensions, before and after silver paint... oops they're upside down These samples have a couple differences from the final production version. The KP stamp will have to be removed from the stone versions as it is just too finely detailed. The COAs will have a raised stamped seal, so the KP stamp will still show up there. Also the bezels will be a bit sharper as illustrated by this quick little sketch:
Here's the display stand concept art and the pouches the kaps themselves will come in. Note there will be a laser engraved "Kryptopath's KryptoKaps" design on the front of the black stand.KryptoKap Dice are collectable dice, featuring cryptocurrency symbols instead of dots or numbers, with most made out of stone, and some of metal.Note the metal editions are in the works, these pre-orders and the first few releases most likely will only be stone. I'm going to be scaling up this project as time goes on.
Each side will feature the symbol of the cryptocurrency as related to its position on the ‘Market Cap Dominance’ chart. The chart is read at 12:01 AM on the first of the month, and can be found here:
https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/For example this first edition of October 2017 will be:
Bitcoin - #1 (along with month, year and KP stamp)
Ethereum - #2
Ripple - #3
BitcoinCash -#4
Litecoin - #5
Dash - #6
In short, the bigger the coin, the lower the roll
You'll notice the Ripple logo's replacement with XRP. This is due to Ripple not releasing their logos under a CC license. Ethereum and Dash have released their logos under CC licenses.
https://www.ethereum.org/assetshttps://www.dash.org/graphics/There will be a new edition for every month, and the design will be adjusted (or not) based on changes to the chart over time. The change we see from October to November is simply Bitcoin Cash and Ripple have switched places.
These will be a fun and unique way to visualize the changing cryptocurrency landscape over time. Each edition will include a short write up of the events of the past month and draw attention to notable changes in the design. Perfect for those wanting to display historical representations of the most disruptive technology of our time. It’s been a wild ride so far, and it will be cool to watch how the market changes these over time.
Here’s what makes these awesome and will keep them awesome:
- Each COA-bearing edition will have the same number of releases forever. I.E. there will only be 100 silver plated, 50 gold plated, 10 solid silver, or something to that effect for October, that many for November and so on.. While the numbers per edition remain the same, the prices are likely to change with demand. These numbers will be finalized after I get a feel for interest in the product.
- Once this project begins paying for itself, a portion of profits will be donated to local charities. Most of which will go toward meeting needs as they come up, but some will remain in bitcoin holdings to be saved for a period of time and then may be used by such charities. A couple bucks per Kap today might be a couple hundred in 10 years. At least that’s the idea.
- Here’s where it might get a little confusing. The plan is to follow a schedule for releases of current and previous months. Once production capacity allows, I will be releasing backdated months in reverse order from October 2017. Say for example come February, when I release the January 2018 edition, I will at the same time release the September 2017. Then around March I release the February 2018 and the August 2017. Then March 2018 and July 2017, April ‘18 and June ‘17, May ‘18 and May ‘17 and so on.
Here are the perks for placing a pre-order:
- Pre-orders cost $15 per stone Kap - the in-stock price will be $20.
- These Pre-order stone editions will all come with unique “first edition preorder COAs”. COAs will not be issued to general release marble editions, and will be reserved for the metal, and special issue editions such as for notable events like the Genesis Block, 10K Pizza, the First Halvening, etc. etc.
-I will not be placing a limit on the number of pre-orders, so if you want 10, feel free to order 10, but who knows how many “pre-orders” will end up existing.
-I will not be reserving any numbers of COAs beyond 0001-0010 I will be keeping for myself and gifts. It’s first come first served. - Also included will be a signed letter of thanks for being the awesome people to help launch KryptoKaps
- Some nice laser engraved display stands are being produced in the near future as well. All pre-orders will be entitled to $5 off on those.
