John Collins-Black, a musician and crypto-entrepreneur from California, organized a unique adventure by hiding five chests of valuables throughout the United States. Using the funds earned from early investments in Bitcoin, he created a large-scale quest that anyone can participate in. All the clues to solving the location of the treasures are contained in his book "There's Treasure Inside".
Collins-Black placed one large chest and four smaller chests in safe locations accessible to the public. Unique items in chests include: Casascius Physical Bitcoin, a collectible coin that contains cryptocurrency; The Colombian emerald is a rare stone, valuable among collectors; Pokémon Shining Charizard Rare Card; Antiques from a sunken ship; George Washington's glass. The total value of the treasures, according to the author, is estimated at 2 to 3 million dollars.
The book "There's Treasure Inside" contains clues, puzzles and coded messages to help you find the hiding places. Participation requires attentiveness and the ability to think outside the box. Collins-Black notes that: Treasures are located in public areas; You don't have to do dangerous or illegal things to find them. Each chest has a built-in puzzle to help open it without damage.
The crypto investor emphasizes that his goal is to inspire people to adventure and explore. If the treasures remain undiscovered in 8-10 years, he promises to publish additional clues. "I wanted the value of the treasures to be high enough to interest people, but not so high that it caused a stir," explains Collins-Black. He also adds that changes in the value of bitcoin or antiques will only increase the significance of the treasures found.
This project is already attracting the attention of adventure seekers, crypto-enthusiasts and puzzle fans. For Collins-Black, this is an opportunity not only to leave a mark in history, but also to give people a unique experience.
