Kickstarter: Bitcoin Playing Cards Funded in 12 Hours

Andrei Jikh and Patrick Kun announced and launched the Bitcoin Playing Cards on Kickstarter during Cardistry-Con, Hong Kong and in just under 12 hours, the project has successfully hit its funding goal of $20k. The stunning decks are designed by Billy French. Every aspect of this deck is designed to mirror the Bitcoin currency - the value, the look, the feel, and ultimately - the story.

Two decks are on offer during the campaign, the standard Black Bitcoin deck featuring a luxurious tuck box with premium soft-touch Black dyed paper, embossed and adorned with Black and Gold Foil on the exterior and interior.

The White deck will be LIMITED and contained within an acrylic puzzle box. The puzzle is a visual analogy of Bitcoin’s BLOCKCHAIN technology where one must do “proof of work” in order to solve and mine the Bitcoin Playing Cards out from the puzzle block.

Oskar Van Deventer, a Guinness World Record holder for the largest Rubik’s cube helped design the puzzle. Hundreds of combinations can exist within the puzzle.

Both decks feature custom Ace of Spades, Jokers, and card backs. The court cards, however, are kept largely the same as standard Bicycle faces but with gold metallic ink as accents!

The deck will be printed by Legends on the brand new soft Stud Paper with the Cardistry Finish. Pledge starts at $15. Check it out on Kickstarter here!
