*awakens the zombie thread*

Has anybody ever ordered and received one of these?



Hi icebreaker,

We've been working a bit behind the scenes to try and revive this zombie product as well Smiley We're looking for NFC app developers to help us create NFC-enabled physical Bitcoins.

A few Bitcoiners purchased these rounds at the first NYC Bitcoin Conference, BitInstant's Erik Voorhees has one, and forum member ercolinux (if i remembered that correctly) has ordered from us as well. They can all assure you these rounds are real Wink

If you'd like to purchase a Silver Bitcoin, feel free to PM or visit MyBitcoinMint.com

AFAIK, All you really have to do is write a private key to it.

Very true. Our goal is slightly different, because we are trying to completely remove the counter-party risk of having someone else create and be in control over your public + private key at any point. Now I'm no computer whiz, but after consulting with nerdier friends of mine, I believe it is possible to develop an app that can create a public and private key, and transfer those keys to an NFC chip. This would mean we could sell the NFC chip / Physical Bitcoin, and the customer would be able to create and export the private/public keys on their own. Thus, customers would not have to trust us and our ability to keep their keys a secret (or steal them Shocked).
