We mentioned ZobrZobr in an earlier article. If you don’t already know, they are a Bitcoin company that specializes in making shirts of various Bitcoin designs and allowing you to post a QR code with a Bitcoin address of your choice, which can be one that you supplied or a popular charity address.
1. What sparked the idea of ZobrZobr?
Actually we were hanging out in a cafe with friends and talking about different Bitcoin projects. There are a lot of opportunities on this market, as you know, and we realized that with Bitcoin anything can become an instrument for donation. So, we decided to start from t-shirts.
After that we met one more time in order to create ideas for prints. We wanted them to be ironic and a bit provocative.
2. Where did the name come from?
Well, I can really say, but the word just appeared in my mind. Maybe I heard it somewhere before. But the thing is that it sound funny and cool!
And now it has a very nice logo with little monsters :)
3. History of development?
We started from searching custom t-shirts producers. I must say it was quite difficult to find a company which was ready to accept Bitcoins and to make such custom t–shirts. Then we found a designer who created the prints and web-site and developer who created the site.
4. When you first launched the service, how many orders did you expect on receiving?
We thought we would start from 10 – 20, but were very surprised when we got 300+ orders for the first 2 weeks!
5. Current Status?
We continue to receive new orders! And now working on partnership with different companies – to provide cool t-shirts to Bitcoin users
6. Will T-shirt designs only stick to Bitcoin related?
In the nearest time – yes
7. Will you expand to other products such as jackets or hats?
Yes, in the nearest future we are planning to start selling wallets :)
8. Future Development plans?
1. Cool Zobrzobr Wallets
2. Partnership with Bitcoin services
3. Partnership with Bitcoin conferences
