Description
This contract was deployed on August 11, 2015 (block 69,213), 12 days after Ethereum mainnet launch. It implements a pricing and deposit management system with functions including setPrice(uint256), setDeposit(uint256), setTimeBlock(uint256), costs(), and open().

The contract was prominently featured by Roman Mandeleil (founder of ether.camp) in an August 12, 2015 Reddit post announcing the ether.camp block explorer's new VM trace feature. Mandeleil highlighted this contract alongside three others — including the SciFi voting contract (0xd94badbec) and the Ethereum Foundation treasury (0xde0b295669a9fd93d5f28d9ec85e40f4cb697bae) — as examples of interesting contracts to explore with the new tracing tool.
The deployer address (0x8bae48F227d978d084B009b775222BAaF61ed9fe) made multiple configuration calls immediately after deployment, suggesting active testing of the pricing mechanism. No source code has been verified on Etherscan.
