Anyone here in the Ethereum Pre-Sale?

Yo, did you take part in the Ethereum Pre-Sale? If so, hit me up. I'm looking to buy your pre-sale address. Just want it empty, of course, no ETH or tokens left (if you still have some). I’m ready to pay anywhere from $100 up to like $2-3k, depending on how valuable the address is. Gonna use a middleman for this, obviously. The more ETH you had during the ICO and fewer transactions, the more valuable it is. Just a heads-up, the address will be kept just for sentimental reasons, and you'll still have access to it (private keys can’t be changed). Feel free to message me here or on Telegram, my handle's fenomeno888. Appreciate it!

This is a wrong place to post this kind of advert or announcement. This board is mostly for altcoin discussions so you won't get what you want. Please move this thread to Marketplace (Altcoins) However, I am curious. What makes these particular addresses that valuable? Is there a marketplace for them? All they have are those past transactions, and that is it.

Only as memorabilia? quite interesting, all I know is they buy old wallets for possible airdrops, I remember participating in one airdrop using an old wallet or a possible bridge transaction, can you explain more about being used as memorabilia? This is the first time I've read about it.

wait, what you gonna do with the address is there any airdrop going on or is there something that I missing here. First of all did you know that buying and selling address is kinda dangerous because the first owner or the seller could still have access to that address and if you fill up with any token or coin that could lead into another loss. memorabilia and you paid up to 3000 is insane amount bro, what is the criteria what presale do u want anyway

People are hunting the old airdrop to see if there would be a potential in the such old wallet by scan it. When they find the address contain so many unclaimed airdrop. They will be buying that old address, then claim airdrop for themselves. There are so many sites offered a tool to scan the wallet looking for unclaimed airdrop. This is what i know why many are looking for old wallet.

For sure? we don't believe. You'll probably going to take the most of the airdrops that haven't been taken by the owners of it. Oh well, why would I care, I don't even have it and missed the ICO pre sale of Ethereum. Lucky are those who got it if OP's offer here is for real.

Never heard about airdrops dedicated to early eth addresses. Can you mention some of them if you mind? If this is for real, the buyer will check the eligibility of the address for the airdrop which will determine its price. In the other hand, I don't think old eth pre-sale investors aren't aware of those airdrops if they are not already rich enough to not follow these offers for some hundreds dollars. Who the genuine to buy crypto addresses as collectibles, unless he intends to use it for another purpose.

There are the likes of Omisego(OMG) although I don't know what happened to this project right now. But early addresses received like for every 1 ETH is around 0.06 - 0.08 omg. He might be for real about having it like a collectors item. But there are tools or websites now that checks the eligible airdrops that can have for each of those old addresses.

If you really have a hobby of collecting then why not buy a well known address from public sale? You can get cheated by buying such pre sale address privately. You will find many old coin on auction board or collectibles section both funded or buyer funded version, and buying them will be much safer and more transparent. They way you just want to keep them in your collection as a memorabilia it is also very risky. If you ever send any fund or token to that address later there is a risk that all your goods will be stolen in an instant.

Given the recent hacking of dormant wallets, I wouldn't be right to conclude this deal was a simple process. It may be technically impossible to reveal the seed phrase from a leaked key, but the owner could foolishly reveal it. Only a small number of people had the opportunity to participate in the ETH presale, and some of them should have substantial funds in other wallets. Never mind $3k, $100 is even too good a deal to disclose that you're one of the presale participants. "Proceed with caution."

That recent hacking incident probably means someone had their private keys or seed phrase leaked. I don't think it had anything to do with a weakness with ETH blockchain or encryption. If the case were the latter, it would have been so widespread. Maybe there is something OP had discovered those ETH presale addresses can do that people have not yet realised. It could be an airdrop or something like that.

Yes I remember it very well. I thought it has been rebranded to OMG Network which is still live at the price of $0,06 according to today prices. I don't see it as an airdrop worth buying old addresses at the hope it will boom one day. The project is almost dead since then. Those websites are created upon the lunch of the airdrop. By purchasing those old addresses today, you don't have a website that can tell of the address will be eligible for all future airdrops. This has no sense. For collectible reasons, this also has no sense because he knows that the original still has a copy of the private key of any address and can use it at anytime to prove ownership even after tens of years. Old addresses can't be collectible items to sell.

Revealing its ownership to anyone mean opening your system up to phishing, social engineering or targeted attack in future. Ethereum's own security guidelines clearly state that wallet recovery data or key should not be shared with anyone. On top of that the way old wallets are being hacked these days and scammers finding their way in, selling a historical address is nothing but harming yourself. No matter how much you try to paint this as a "it's just for memorabilia bro", it still sound like shady. An old Ethereum presale wallet is the only OG identity in crypto world. And thinking that having a middleman will reduce the risk is ridiculous, lol!
