Dear Pledgers and supporters,
The Cryptosteel team are pleased to announce that last weekend we finalised an agreement worth an initial $3500 with the vendor who will supply us with designed Blanking Dyes for the production line. This accord includes a commitment to commencing production by a
deadline set at 20.12.2015. At this point we would like to offer our sincerest apologies for recent delays in producing your cold wallets; however, the ultimate cause of these set-backs has been our commitment to delivering the best possible product.
From the very start of the Indiegogo Crowdfunding Campaign the Cryptosteel team were determined that the unveiled model of the cold wallet would be an exact replica of that transferred into production.
This assumption, it has transpired, was huge lapse and the consequence of our miscalculation has been a delay of over six months.
Simply put, we failed to accurately anticipate the sheer number and variety of hitches that have stymied the cold wallets progression from the prototyping phase to that of final production.
Furthermore, it became quickly apparent that there is an acute shortage of personnel working in the area of stainless steel production (items/details/parts) who possess the expertise and experience required to aid us in crafting Cryptosteel.
However, we have come to accept that all of the pain and stress that we have experienced over the last few months was an inevitable and in many ways essential part of the process of forging Cryptosteel and we are now confident of delivering a product of the calibre we envisaged at the outset.
Thank you all once more for your continued patience and support it keeps us going!
We stay in touch!
