Re: 🗽 The Liberty CryptoDollar BTC/ALT SPECIE (1oz .999 Silver/AltCoin)
Didn't realize that BVH had taken notice of these. Have you able to work things out with him since this post?
Oh yea, BVN was aware from the beginning. We spoke for months back and forth before, during and after. I licensed the use of the physical plaster master sculpture to reduce @ coin size to create one die, directly from him - as a result of regular communication. We talked a lot about fonts and wording - proof and satin finish, counter stamp markings. Mostly by email, but even voice chats that seems to all go well. I first approached him it was 2017 and he agreed to the idea with no expiration window. We didn't get to the minting process until 2018 and he's gone so far as to state we could license the image in a later project for another fee. Mr. B was writing a book as 2018 approached, but was outwardly warm to this project filling the commemorative niche:

>> Using the 2018 date is very good as that is the 20th Anniversary of the Liberty Dollar and it gives you time to market your Crypto Dollar this year for Christmas etc... and all of next year too.
But when I approached him a couple of months ago (Late 2019) his tune had soured on points completely foreign to our conversations and several people have since mentioned that he's bitter.
And yes, they did come out with a 20 year anniversary round. All though, it did not feature/use a QR code.
Indeed. Near the end of the 20th Anniversary year, BVN created The Liberty Dollars' own commemorative piece.
http://liberty-dollar-20th-anniversary.mybigcommerce.com/ but as for the QR code, I think I recall him saying he had plans for a future QR coded round.
IMHO: Kinda looks to me like they're using his 2018 Commemorative round as the metal to back the ETH Token for the vault examinations: My opinion after comparing the images used on the LD2 site background with the image used on BVN's own 20th Anniversary commemorative coin site above. Maybe that's what's behind the FUD 'AltCoin Specie' supporters are reporting having experienced toward me from him, I dunno. God love'em, maybe he's just got the reefer madness.
They decided instead to make it a "cryptocurrency" and make it a an ERC-20 token on the ETH blockchain https://etherscan.io/token/0x2f5cdc81a729b750f3b733cb95660e788441c71e
They did mint 1oz silver rounds as well called "Liberty Dollar 2" https://ld2coin.io/
"LD2 IS AN ASSET-BACKED CRYPTOCURRENCY THAT FACILITATES VAULTED, PHYSICAL OWNERSHIP OF REDEEMABLE PRECIOUS METALS AND REAL-TIME TRADING OF THOSE ASSETS."

I have a minor invested interest in that.
I'll support anything that remains an uncorrupted asset-backed settlement instrument.
Sure it ain't cheap to vault up 5,000 ounces and regularly audit/examine.
an ability to intermingle with such a historically epic thing.
LONG LIVE THE LIBERTY DOLLAR!
