Thanks

this might be the largest OTC trade with escrow ever. Glad to see it!

Thanks, kind of intimidating. I doubt it is the largest in bitcoin numbers, but perhaps it is the largest in cash value given the recent rise? I hope I made a good choice! Tongue

Really comes down to butterfly labs shipping and avalon's shipping rates. Tongue

I remember that last time nanotube held escrow for Vandroiy and Pirate's bet for 10,000BTC, so there's larger OTC trades AFAIK. I've transacted more in Bitcoin numbers back in the good old days, but this is the largest transaction in fiat for me so far too. I have the addresses backed up with a lawyer and a couple of safes, like my personal holdings are.

This whole ASICMiner escrow business is getting expensive for me - I'm seriously considering to charge a fixed fee to cover the risks and time spent for future larger and longer transactions now Tongue

I will be certain to tip nicely for your time and risk- What address would you like the tip to go to? Thank you so much for doing this.
