olden days but I'm doing it!First things first, I'm posting this from the https://pimp.media/ front end. Does anyone else use this? Feels like the
Well, well, well, what do we have here...
BTC Cold Storage Copper Coin
I recently picked up this .999 fine copper cold storage wallet for Bitcoin. I'm excited to use it and I'm going to go through it with you in case you happen to have one or are thinking of getting one.
Public Service Announcement
Before going any further there is one IMPORTANT thing to remember about physical cold storage wallets (paper/metal). You can add to them as many times as you like, but they are a ONE TIME SPEND/SEND.
Once you use the private key to spend/send your BTC, that key has been exposed to the web and should be considered compromised.
"So wtf should I do when I want to use it!?"
Swipe the entire balance to a hot wallet or, better yet, to a hardware cold wallet, like a Trezor or Ledger, then use it from there :D
Specs
This particular coin is made by a company called Cold Storage Coins and minted by Rearden Metals in Singapore. It's 1 troy ounce of .999 fine copper.
From the coldstoragecoins.com website...
They have an app that they want you to use but it is not needed and I am not using it. It has terrible reviews and is really not necessary.
Loading
The public key is on a QR code sticker on the back of the coin. The private key is under the sticker, engraved in QR and full alpha-numeric form.

That's this coin's public key, feel free to send any amount of BTC, it will be #SAFU XD
Transfer
I have an Atomic Wallet with a bit of BTC so I'll use that.
⚡
⚡💥
You can use any BTC block explorer to check your balance.
Wrap Up
And that is that, easy as 1,2,3...
- Scan
- Send
- Moon ;)
Hope this makes it easy to use your new cold storage wallet! Have a PIMP'n day friends and neighbors.
So technically I could just post the public key and wait for the lambos to come to me?!!!
Perfect! 😍
Sure
You should just store your crypto on Coinbase like everyone else 😆
Bahhhahahaha. Excellent idea, then I can pay taxes on it too, so easy!
That's awesome! I've never used one but maybe I'll pick one up, it's a cool idea!

Pretty cool but I don't see how it's fire resistant it may not totally melt in a house fire but I think it's likely to deform rendering it useless
Yeah you're right, seems like more of a marketing thing.
Very nice bro. Not yet I’m looking to add to my position first but Bitcoin hasn’t hit the number I’ll buy at.
But has Jenn put any in her wallet? 😉😄
Now that’s funny….🤣🤣🤣
What!? All the current numbers are good numbers. I buy $50 a week broski.

I may just get a couple of these.
They're really cool Kerris and...
If you can't find them up your way I'd be happy to send them to you. Also, there may be a meetup in Van with fat-e, dfin, damus and myself in Sept where I could hand them to you, details later :)
I'll be looking for BTC and LTC, maybe pass on the Dogecoin.👍
Sweet. Im waiting to buy. I think Ill take it to the BTC atm and let it scan the back! Should be OK.
Oh that's cool too, let me know how that works out.
