Hi Guys,

I don't want to interrupt your conversation, but is this about Charlie Shrem who is
behind casascius.com? I keep finding up his name, in the wrong way here.

I am posting, because I was thinking about ordering a (bag of about 500) Aluminum
"Strength in Numbers" Promo Coins at Casascius, but after reading some of this I am unsure.

Is it safe still ordering? Or is it asking to get screwed?

Charlie Shrem owned Bitinstant.com

casascius.com is owned by casascius who's real name is Mike Caldwell. This thread has nothing to do with casascius, and I believe casascius no longer sells those physical coins.

I just checked the casascius.com website and apparently they're selling the aluminium coins blank (no private key / no bitcoins loaded on them).

I do have more physicals, but I'm unsure if I can trust people again

Come to the collectable section https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=217.0

There are plenty of trusted people there that deal in physical crypto.

Also to be safe always use an escrow if you feel that the person you are selling to is not trustworthy enough.

Best of luck and hope you receive what is duly owed to you.

I wish, haha! He's now blocking me on Twitter to avoid damaging his precious reputation (I won't lie, I've backlinked to this thread 50 times!) [
