Description

2018 BTCC 100K Bits 0.1 Bitcoin. Loaded. Firstbits 1BeyeEF9E. Serial No. W00633. Series V. Titanium. MS-67 (ICG).
Loaded with 0.1 BTC. This Titanium 100K Bits specimen is an important offering that represents one of the most elusive issues in the cryptocurrency category. The surfaces are nearly flawless and feature a pearly satin luster. This series debuted in June 2018 with a mintage of just 900 pieces, boasting exceptional production quality and "spacecraft-grade" titanium. The orange holograms used on these 2018 issues indicate they were funded with Bitcoin mined after the hard fork of August 2017. An example of the larger 0.5 BTC of this type sold for $26,400 in our August 2022 sale, indicating tremendous collector demand for this Titanium series. This 0.1 BTC is actually the smallest Titanium denomination issued by BTCC, making it a crowning jewel for collectors seeking an example of this exotic composition. The issuer BTCC was founded in June 2011 as BTCChina and it was the first bitcoin exchange in that country. By October 2014 it had become the world's second largest bitcoin exchange by volume and it was official rebranded as BTCC in 2015. It remains the longest-running cryptocurrency exchange in the world and is now headquartered in London, UK. Famed bitcoin entrepreneur Bobby Lee currently serves as CEO.
