  Keep in mind the grand prize is $17K, it's approximately $50K spread out amongst all the winners.

      That's cute, but also pretty inconvenient.

        I find it ironic that a new e-currency designed to remove the need for cash or cumbersome online payment methods would reward it's challenge winners with probably the most cumbersome currency; gold bullion.

          How would they get the 17K in Gold to you? Is it delivered via FedEx?

  Also of note: according to the rules, it's open to Americans as well as Canadians: http://mintchipchallenge.com/rules http://mintchipchallenge.com/rules

    It's also open to corporations in the same locations from a quick glance on my side. My guess is that us foreigners could register a company in Delaware etc, and compete.
