Current highest reputable offer is 5.45 BTC, possibly including a 2011 or 2013 Cas 1 BTC coin. So feel free to make a higher offer.

For the record I got two offers so far by PM. One was 5.35 BTC but the message had lots of typos and didn't seem trustworthy. The other was for an unspecified amount in cash which I'm not comfortable doing.

[WTS] 2012 Casascius 5 BTC coin unredeemed

Hi,

I have a physical bitcoin I'm interested in selling. I am the sole owner; it has never changed hands since I got it several years ago. It's in good condition but not perfect; it wasn't kept in a protective case.

Specifically it is this one: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1CsxvRCGk9H1Fs4hQawtLp9e5PWjdD9q5Q

According to https://casasciustracker.com/?flt1_balance_equals=5, there are 693 unredeemed 5 BTC Casascius coins left of 1261 total.

Happy to hear either offers for it or opinions of what it's worth. I could take cryptocurrency for it or I could consider other forms of payment.

1) hold the reset button for a full 6 seconds before releasing.
2) It will now be at 192.168.1.99 (or 192.168.2.99)
3) Assuming your router is 192.168.1.1 - static IP
 ipv4 address: 192.168.1.99
ipv4 netmask: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.1.1
Broadcast : LEAVE THIS BLANK
custom dns server: 8.8.8.8
Disable DHCP

4) if it still wont work, what are your pool details and post some screenshots

I tried holding the reset button for twice that long and then shutting it down, leaving it off for a while, then starting it back up. Then when I tried to set my IP to 192.168.1.99 or 192.168.2.99 and connect to it but it's not there. I doubt the router is 192.168.1.1-- This is a university network so everything is 130.160.XXX.XXX instead of 192.168 and I have no ability to administrate a router or anything like that. Are those settings in step 3 supposed to be for my computer or the miner?
Ok, I think you might be misunderstanding something: you need to set the ip address of your pc to something different to 192.168.1.99 or it will conflict with the miner, if you set your PC to 192.169.1.99 they will never connect. I'm sure the miner will be 192.168.1.99, so you need to change the ipv4 of your PC to 192.168.1.2 and then connect to the miner by typing 192.168.1.99 in your browser. You'll then need to change the ipv4 address of your miner (WAN) to something like 130.160.[this must be the same as your university range].200, or try setting it to DHCP client for it to be automatically assigned an IP.

Your problem is that your miner is on a different network to you uni and you need to get into the miner to change the WAN IP address so it can access the uni network... the easiest way to do that is log in to it with an ethernet cable, but your pc needs to be on the same network as the miner to do that i.e. 192.168.1.[whatever].

Thank you so much! It's finally mining. I was trying to connect to it with my computer at the same IP address, not just on the same subnet because that's what the guides told me to do, but I finally was able to connect to it, change it's IP to an unused one on my local network, and get it mining. Alright I said I'd send .01 BTC to whoever got it mining, and I appreciate everyone else who tried to help, but you did the job. What's one of your bitcoin addresses? You can PM it to me if you prefer.

You'd generally plug the miner into a router you can administrate and pick the IP off that if DHCP is enabled.
I don't have access to a router I can administrate here.

Go here and read from the beginning, it should get you going: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=344970.0

Do a hard reset first as you may have messed up some of the settings...

Good luck!

Edit: P.S. just disable ntp client if it's a problem.

That's the guide I was using. And I tried pressing the reset button. Is there another way to do a hard reset?

I am very much in need of help. I've had my Antminer S1 for almost a week but still haven't gotten it mining. At first, I could connect to it and change the settings, although it wasn't mining because it couldn't resolve the ntp.org address. I tried changing it to the IP address, but that didn't work. Then I read somewhere to change it to use DHCP, but ever since I did that, I don't know its IP address so I no longer have access to it. I've tried doing a scan of the network using nmap but it's a university network so the address space is massive. There's no way to check them all, and I don't know how to narrow it down. I've also tried pressing the reset button and restarting it, but that didn't seem to help either. ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

In fact, I'll send 0.01 BTC to whoever can get this thing mining.

The problem with this system is that functionally it's a barrier to entry for new people interested in Bitcoin who want to participate in the discussion. Bitcoin is inherently all about being free and openly accessible to everyone to use as they see fit. IMHO the primary forum for discussion of Bitcoin should reflect these values and remove its barriers for "newbies".

There's certainly reason to think BFL is or isn't a scam, but either way we will all know within the month if you ask me. By then Jalapeno's will start popping up or there will be another convenient delay.
