2017 Satori "Poker Chip" 0.001 Bitcoin (BTC). Loaded. Serial No. 37310. Plastic. 40 mm. MS-69 (ANACS). This is an active and loaded cryptocurrency coin containing 0.001 BTC, equivalent to roughly US$40 at the time of cataloging (May 2022). Released in Japan in 2016, the Satori series was intended to generate more awareness about the bitcoin technology in a fun and accessible way. The low face value was also a deliberate choice to discourage use in illegal markets like the drug trade or terrorism. The obverse features an ornamental Bitcoin currency symbol at the center with decorative patterns surrounding. Cryptocurrency researcher Elias Ahonen, a.k.a Cryptonumist, reveals the symbolism in these patterns in explaining that “the outer blue bars and teal knots circling the inner square represent the blockchain, and the sunrays reaching through the central ‘box’ allude to ‘thinking outside the box’.” Also featured is the quote “Value does not exist outside the consciousness of man” from Austrian Economist Carl Menger. The reverse features a holographic sticker which shows the denomination and the serial number. Once peeled, the holographic sticker reveals a QR code which will allow the owner to redeem the cryptocurrency and load it onto their digital wallet.* Public Address: <a href="https://btc.cryptoid.info/btc/address.dws?174nSyzrM3yDi2BXM1Cdpd9kA5D76owP7x.htm 174nSyzrM3yDi2BXM1Cdpd9kA5D76owP7x</a>
