More Updates about the 2018 Steem Silver Round (Price, Timeline, Payment Methods, etc.)

in steemsilverround •  7 years ago 

With the website progressing nicely there have been some questions popping up about the pre-ordering.

Before we get started, if you missed yesterday’s post about ordering the same serial numbered rounds as you have in the 2017 version read the post here.

Here are a few questions we have received recently about the coin

What will the price be per round?

Each round will cost $24.

When will pre-orders begin?

There are a few more things left with the website before it can be launched. I am expecting this to be complete sometime this week ideally. After that the pre-orders can begin. At most, two weeks from now.

What forms of payment will be accepted?

  • Credit Card
  • Cryptocurrencies (Steem, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum)

Will you be accepting Steem Dollars?

The payment integration we have only allows Steem or Steem Dollars. If you have Steem Dollars, you can convert them into Steem. I believe @blocktrades will convert it for you for free.

How many rounds will be minted?

There will be 2,500 rounds minted total.

Is a 2D or 3D design going to be used?

After nearly everyone in the community supported the idea of having a 3D design for the obverse, we have decided to use that one. This will give the round more depth and allow it to pop.

How long until rounds will be shipped?

We have a reservation with the sculptor on April 15. It will take the sculptor approximately 10 business days to create the die. After this it will take another few weeks for fabrication and shipping. I would expect mid-May is a reasonable date. This will obviously become clearer as the project progresses.

Such a stunning design, i can only imagine the pride @welshstacker must be feeling seeing his design immortalized. I will def be getting a couple and i need to photograph and reserve my number 80. Thank you everyone making this round a reality.

I continue to like all of the improvements! The dream is becoming a reality! Yes! Go and get it reserved! It took like 5 minutes to do all of mine! :)

Pretty expensive rounds. Creative though.

so where is the site I can go to and order when the ordering starts

The website is www.steemsilverround.com

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

Sounds cool man. Glad to see you handling biz sir

Oh I can’t wait to have @welshstacker design in my hands. He will remind of this daily. Well done for organising this @sevinwilson.

The design keeps getting better ;)

bad. ass. can't wait to get mine.

I know right? The design is coming together quite nicely!

Thanks for the update @sevinwilson! I hope everything with the sculptor and website goes smoothly.

Greta update my friend. I will start to arrange the UK group buy soon, it's really great we can pay with Steem this year :)

Thanks bro

Heck yeah! It’s gonna make things a lot easier!! Thanks for working on the group buy! Who did the Australia one??

Can't remember to be honest. Im sure someone will make themselves handy when the time comes

I am SO HAPPY to see my design edit suggestion realized in the final proof for the 2018 Steem Silver Round! I couldn't have carved that Steem symbol into the trunk of that tree better myself. I also like the addition of the extra fish, looks fantastic! Thank you @sevinwilson, @phelimint, @steemsilverround, and everyone else that contributed to make this happen! Looking forward to ordering mine. Blessings everyone!

That engraving of the logo into the tree is incredible!! Thanks for the suggestions!!

Such an amazing design this year, very glad this is the one that won it. Will there be a limit on how many coins any given person can order?

That is a good question. This is the one thing we have been going back and forth on. I think a post dedicated to that may be a good idea where people can discuss it. We may start with having a limit but then lifting it after a period of time depending on how orders go!

Looking forward to it. I was hoping that the price of Steem would be higher when orders started getting taken. Might have to use the old cc for this one. I take it the value of the crypto is calculated at the time of payment?

Also, FYI, people can use the internal market (connected from the wallet) to convert their SBD to Steem. Then they don't have to send to blocktrades and back. Whatever is easier. Just wanted to make sure you knew the option was there.

That is a good point!! Yes at checkout it will tell you how much to send if crypto is used!

The internal market may not have the buy/sell order capacity depending on how much they are wanting to sell!

Thanks, that helps. And yes, you're correct. The internal market has more limited volume. @blocktrades probably has a lot more ability to fill large orders quickly. Due to my current position, I tend to only trade around 5-10 SBD at a time.

Ahh that makes sense! I’ve used that internal market quite a bit! It works pretty darn well!
