Well, at least that means I did a fairly convincing job of writing my fake press release!

I did add a disclaimer at the bottom of my original post now just in case.

There are quite a few other little jokes (names, CCCP/SCUM, the office locations...)

It does bring up a question: can you "grade" or "certify" something that doesn't physically exist?

Sweet, in the meanwhile you can use your ungraded Shiba Inu to robo grade pokemon cards...and this is real despite the date.

In another industry first, the new company (CCCP) will also be launching a new application for mobile devices (Crypto Go!) thanks to a new partnership with Niantic, developers of the smash hit mobile game Pokemon Go! Players of all ages who download the new application will be able to discover real-life points of interest by exploring while collecting various types of cryptocurrencies along the way and (after linking their digital wallets) earning cryptocurrency credits that can be traded with other players or exchanged for discounted grading and certification services.

- All supported cryptocurrencies will be housed in a brand-new plastic holder developed jointly with NASA. In addition to providing the standard grading and certification services, the new holders will feature NFC, RFID, holographic labels, high-definition photography, and other extensive anti-counterfeiting measures. The new holders are made of shatterproof transparent materials to prevent cracking or breaking and will be resistant to damage from radiation, moisture, smog, fire, poison, lightning strikes, and solar flares.


NASA!

Each CCF member with more than 50 posts should be submitted for grading...done by a group of randomly selected CCF peers.

Now I'm waiting on the inevitability of the GGC (Grading Grading Company) that will grade the condition of TPG slabs.

"This PCGS OGH slab is in a new GGC holder with a grade of 8.5/10. GGC notes that the label is 20% faded and that there is a small chip on the left bottom edge as well as a slight milky discoloration spot and minor hairline scratches."

Imagine a set of Matryoshka dolls, but with TPG slabs.

Funny write-up, paralyse! But I've been inordinately skeptical of everything I read today, starting with the "article" announcing that Taylor Swift was releasing a cover of the Grateful Dead's 1970 album "Workingman's Dead".
But there are actually Bitcoins such as this one, that I often see on ebay and other auction sites:

Yes, I have a few of the Dogecoins I give out as gifts to coworkers and customers!

Also, she should do Aoxomoxoa instead!

Kinda makes us wish we knew a bit more to have them....As one comment said I always just assumed the bitcoins that resembled actual coins were just representational tokens of some sort, to kind of illustrate the concept that bitcoin traded like money/an asset, the fact that some also carried a value as a physical entity was completely not on my radar.

If there is money to be made, someone will try... thinking about all those old school coin holders that actually people desire and collect that may actually be possible... So get on it! Normal grading like cgc does take the box into account such as with grading video games or vhs tapes already but I don't see anyone grading the holder condition when its rarer. https://www.cgcvideogames.com/

I seriously read the entire text and thought "what?". I was very surprised by the offices: Moscow, St. Petersburg - hmm, oh well. Odessa? Are you serious? Siberia, Tolstoy, are these some small towns in the USA?

I've seen it mentioned on CCF somewhere that technically the world's most valuable coin is one such token issued to a face value of 1000 BTC - supposedly about half a dozen were originally minted and some of them hadn't been redeemed yet.

(...This thread, apparently.)

Yes, that is correct. It's a reference to the name "CCCP" (=USSR)
