no its all bad, the bit where it seems like they are really complimentary of the coin was a joke podcast they did where they recorded it wayy earlier as if they hadn't so they were trying to predict the future basically

You should update this. Coin didn't just "fail". They were bought out by Fitbit and Fitbit cancelled the card immediately and did nothing with the brand. Seems like one brand buying another to stump competition.

Technology crowdfunding almost never works, ive backed a few dozen creative products like books or board games and they've all been great or somewhat good. But most of the hardware ideas people have aren't possible in the way that they imagine, software is kinda 50/50 a lot of the time it turns out meh. There have been a couple of gold stars in there though. But ive never seen a hardware kickstarter go well

I think the videos are a bit out of order cause one of them was purposely delayed or something. also there is the first coin and then the 2nd coin

[@porkchops1701]

I think the episode where they say they love the coin, where Burnie says it's his old wallet so doesn't have it on him, was the episode they filmed like 2 years before it was actually released for some reason. I think it was a landmark episode they recorded years before release for a joke but can't super remember so they're talked about the coin before they even have it 😂

[@1800mexicano]

Absolutely crowdfunded. When a large crowd of people give you money and you do not have the product, and you have to wait to start production on that product until you have enough money because you do not already have a business that cannot produce without said money, it is crowd funded. the different tiers from Kickstarter specifically are not what define crowdfunded guys

It's irritating that Burnie has only three options in his head. People will have Coin, apple wallet, or Google pay. And the majority option of bring a normal person and using a wallet with all your cards.

[@jintie]

the majority now is just bringing your phone dude, everything is contactless now 🙃

[@bluescluessuperagent]

@@jintie depends what country. Some places have adopted tech much faster than others. China for example. Other East Asian countries. But the US? We are pretty slow at changing (stubborn) and cash and physical credit cards are still majority. In fact some places tried to go cashless and government stepped in and blocked it. Now this was before world pandemic so that might influence how US state and city governments feel about creating a cashless society. And even then that still leaves cards vs phone. Personally I've never used my phone to pay for anything. I venmo people or use PayPal. Buy stuff on my phone but never got a digital wallet So don't act like everything is contactless lol

It connects to your Bluetooth. So if someone were to hack into your Bluetooth connection, they would be able to get into the Coin and take all of your cards on there, drain you dry and drink your milkshake with a straw that reaches across the room.

[@JITCompilation]

Tony Mueller what? They would drink my milkshake?!? Fuck that, im not buying a coin

[@Leto_0]

Lmao yep, these guys definitely designed, created, and programmed a chip meant to store very valuable data, and then instead of encrypting the data, they just left it and hoped no one would guess that it has bluetooth. Everything is encrypted, banks don't just store your information in plain text in a word document. Anyone reading the stream of data would just see gibberish unless the entire business was insecure and they found the decrypt key

[@self1sch]

The coin kickstarter was in 2013, back then it wasn't common to pay with your phone, sth that changed dramatically when Apple Pay was introduced a year later and with Android Pay in 2015. The "coin" service shut down in 2017. This video is also over 4 years old, not sure if you noticed ;)
