perhaps the most retarded idea I've ever had

[Meredith Swift]

I would be much more likely to buy a coin than t-shirts, etc. Not that I don't think the past merch designs haven't been amazing but I'm just not the type of person who likes to advertise their favourite websites on clothing/the merch on offer wasn't really my style.

But this? I would love to get a weird Chris Chan coin and hide it amongst my belongings for my grandchildren to find in 50 years, thus starting them on their journey to discover just what the fuck a sonichu is

Are you going to do this like a Group Buy? Basically you would take pre-orders until you have fulfilled the minimum order quantity, then make them after you've secured the money. If you don't get enough orders for minimum profitability, you just refund. I think people trust you here enough to do something like that.

I can do this as soon as I have a company picked so I can lock in the spot

First quote I've gotten:



This is way more than I was expecting tbh. I don't see why he'd be charging $10 over spot for the metal (literally a >33% profit already) and then an additional $7 per strike. At that rate I'd be looking at selling coins over double the spot, and even then at $56, that'd not make as much money as the manufacturer itself for the run. That's a big bummer.

What about another metal like copper?

 

[Merry]

Per unit striking cost and material fees are currently a much bigger expense. I definitely don't mind buying the dies.

Tried any other quotes?

Could 100% do this, copper is also a highly undervalued commodity and very important for industry. I've been considering buying copper recently too.

 

[StreetGangsta]

Btw Chris really wants to be put on coins and is making a Tiara to look like the queen on the pound sterling for the profile shot

bruh did you unironically hit chris up for this

Ew no, get your poor ass out of here. If I wanted the metal to oxidize to a green color, I'd spray paint the thing.

So then you need to pull what pedigree dog breeders do and create a buy option for sale. Offer an upfront (non refundable) fee of say...10 dollars, for people to be put on a list for a coin at the full price you listed with no obligation to actually deliver. Dog breeders do this all the time, anywhere from 500 to 3000 dollars non refundable just to be put on a list for the next years puppies. And if there are not enough puppies they go to the top of the list in the following year. At which point when there name is called they pay the difference to market price for the puppy. Basically the cost of the puppy minus their entry fee. If they DONT buy the puppy once its presented the breeder just pockets the entry fee and goes his merry way.

So say the Kiwi Koin costs 60 bucks. You put out an option to get on a list for kiwi koin at 10 dollars. Non refundable. Once the koin is made you tell all the people on the list their koin is ready now pay the rest of the 50 dollars. If they dont, you keep their koin and their 10 dollar deposit. This is all perfectly fine provided you are clear this is how you buy the item and you actually make a good faith effort to deliver it.

If you post here, you already are one.

I don't want anything having to do with current-day "Retard Abuse Saga" Chris. It's just too much of a downer.

 

[Fish-Eyed Fool]

Make a new form of cryptocurrency and then we'll talk.

Go the extra retarded route and make a stablecoin with every unit backed by one unit of silver kiwicoin.

 

[Mediocre]

A Kiwi silver bullion bar sounds comfy tbh but you know, more products more cost less profits blah blah.

Coin sounds good tho.

 

[Bongocat]

@Null you have to promise us you'll make one of those old TV commercials

"This limited time silver coin commemorates 10 years of Kiwi Farms most beloved Persons of Interest. Order now and forever cherish the memories of these exceptional individuals."

 

[💗Freddie Freaker💗]

I've been debating what to do for the next merch run and due to the memes of the day I'm looking into a custom silver round mint.

First idea I have was
Front: KF logo and and the text "Kiwi Farms" above / "Fuck the Banks", below
Reverse: CWC's head in profile with a tiara like the Queen of England on Commonwealth coin mints with "In Sonichu we Trust"

Someone suggested $5 over spot for the coin as a sales price (i.e. $27.22 per oz [spot price], $5 markup, then shipping).

I'm not being facetious I am an insane person and I want to mint my own coins for fun. How many people are interested?

Whether or not this goes through depends heavily on manufacturing and what they have as minimum orders.
So, if you happen to be in the industry, email me <jcmoon@pm.me>.

Edit: Quote 1 came in and it's looking pretty dire.

I'd happily buy even if it look like crap. That sounds really cool.

You could also sell KF art on the blockchain.

How can we be certain that you won't be shaving all the coins before the shipping to make maximum profit?

I can see dear feeder doing a line of silver dust off a cheap gypsy's tits.

 

[Jet Fuel Johnny]

Talked to the wife, she said "It's the last place you can act like an asshole on the Internet, buy a coin or two. BTW: I want more yarn."

She gets stupid worthless string, I get a Kollector's Kiwi-Koin

I can see dear feeder doing a line of silver dust off a cheap gypsy's tits.

He can sell that vid for $14.88 to collectors.

Realistically speaking, Null, if youre dead set on doing art rounds in silver wait a couple months for the retard induced bubble to burst and for spot to drop back to normal. Numism-autists will pay 40 or 50 green quarters for interesting art rounds regardless of spot, even if it drops back to 14 or 16. But creeping up on 60 bucks you'll have less interested parties and at your currently projected price point there's almost no meat left for you.

I know meat is cheap in bumfuck-wherever-the-shit-you-hang-your-hat-nowadays, but you gotta be doing this for more than teh lulz. Besides, I like my men beefy; you gotta start eating more my pudgy lil boy.
