Title: BankToTheFuture.com opinions?

Any options?

What does one actually buy there?

Anyone tried yet?

Profitable?

Not very popular here in these forums, why?

Anyhow. Looks mostly non-scam to me.

But one thing is troubling... Their start page, the world map shows stuff like...

"Received dividend of 0.36 ETH from #EMBS."

But that is unlikely, since that project was not fully funded and apparently never started business and is totally disappeared.

So I conclude they are making these dividends up, which looks weird.

Looks like a cheaply creates site for me. The ui looks somewhat similar to those ponzis so I don't know if the investment here is legit. Is this yours?

It seems this is crowdfunding platform rather than just investment site. Looking at some of the listed crowdfunding projects here https://bnktothefuture.com/search/pitches
found that many big names crowdfunding were done through them, if it is true. Never have any experience with them and i think investing in start up projects is risky as well as to get return back your ROI it may require a lot of time.

These kind of co-funding sites will scam us for sure. As I have noticed there many sites are involves in these kind of scam attempts and looks the people money.
I dont think he is newbie first because newbies will not be this much efficient in bitcoins and it's related sites.

No. Please tell me all aspects of it, positive or negative so I can make a better investment decision.

I was expecting a more positive opinions and considered to invest. Now that I read your opinion I am much less sure about this.

BnkToTheFuture is not a crowdfunding platform. If you take a platform like Kickstarter, they allow anyone to contribute a very small amount of money in exchange of a reward. And hundreds and thousands of people there can tip in small amounts in order to get that product going. And they receive some kind of reward. BnkToTheFuture, on the other hand, is an online investment platform where we have a community of around 14,500 professional investors who are looking to invest in financial innovation products, and are also looking to develop a very diverse portfolio. So they normally invest a few thousands in some cases, so basically there is no crowd — only a syndicate of professional investors co-investing with other professional investors.

The website is legit and known and some known billionaires support that platform as well , Kim Dotcom is going to launch a way to buy shares for Megaupload on that platform soon , MaidSafe is running a campaign there as well...
It's legit however , people like us (most of us) won't be able to afford to invest there as It requires few thousands , and you can't simply deposit small amounts as far as I know.
