Title: Help cheaper in bitcoins get some capital Post by: Xenland on September 20, 2011, 05:22:37 AM Okay I can't write alot in this post but I will tell you I'm going to the bank on Wensday to get some small business funding to help cut down the 5 day wait time to ship items out to customers. if you are an investor it is your duty to help spell check and give constructive criticism to this essay to help bankers understand how bitcoins work and why i need then why they are cool, etc ,etc why they profitable ,etc ,etc
anyways here is the paste bin let me know if there is anything to improve on http://pastebin.com/ykGa9fMg Title: Re: Help cheaper in bitcoins get some capital Post by: Xenland on September 20, 2011, 06:03:19 AM Thanks for that quick response, and the multiple corrections!
ive thought about using glbse for high volume of cash i think the issue is if value in bitcoins go back up anytimei have to pay more to payback all the btc. So i could potentially lose money going that route. Title: Re: Help cheaper in bitcoins get some capital Post by: phillipsjk on September 20, 2011, 06:06:07 AM I suspect banks will want to know how you are handling know-you-customer laws designed to discourage money laundering and terrorist financing. The obvious (possibly wrong) answer is that it is not "cash" recognized by any government, so does not have to be reported (though apparently jewlery (over a certain value) has to be reported in Canada).
You may also point out that you have sales records with shipping addresses if any authorities come asking questions. The annoymized bitcoin transaction record is also public in the block-chain. Without pinning down exactly what bitcoin is, it may be difficult to know if there are any special regulations you have to follow.

Thats some good advice! I Already have a print out of all my sales records ready to show them but i didnt think to explain about the blockchain and its integrity!

Title: Re: Help cheaper in bitcoins get some capital Post by: payb.tc on September 20, 2011, 06:11:09 AM you say: A Bitcoin is a digital currency
i'd say: Bitcoin is a digital currency OR A Bitcoin is a unit of digital currency ...plus: Its as easy as sending an email but just as safe as any modern day Bank. It's as easy as sending an email but just as safe as any modern-day bank. by the way, you might want to do a new updated paste after you've made some of these changes, so that we aren't doubling up on each other's corrections.

Have you considered just getting 200 btc from the GLBSE and converting it to USD, and using that as your slush instead of asking for credit from a bank?

Title: Re: Help cheaper in bitcoins get some capital Post by: Ben Walsh (beamer) on September 21, 2011, 06:18:46 AM I don't represent cib.
You posted part of a conversation that should have remained private, so I wondered if you would post more. Looked like Zenland wasn't sure who it was complaining at the time - thought I would help him identify you. And your email is ? Why would I post that here. Do you represent cheaperinbitcoins ?Title: Re: Help cheaper in bitcoins get some capital Post by: Xenland on September 21, 2011, 11:43:48 PM Alright went to the bank asked for a line of credit and with out taking any of my information down she asked "How long ive been in bussiness". I told her I went public on september 1st and made X amount of profit in the first two weeks. She then stated that it takes at least a year of building a good enough track record to accepted and then politly stated that I could try to apply but theres no garuntee that it will be accepted. After I asked to look a my credit score, she she te best she could do was 6 months.
So basically what this means is almost nothing. I will use GLBSE for funding the reserve to make shipping proccessing times shorter. All this means in the end is that investors will make alot of momey instead of the bank. Which is how it should be..... Am I Right? Title: Re: Help cheaper in bitcoins get some capital Post by: Xenland on September 22, 2011, 12:59:35 AM Actually i have not givin it much thought but I'm not opposed to the idea. Ill just be honest and say I get a little bit of anxiety just thinking about selling a piece of my bussiness.
I might have to do some research before i offer of course. What kind of shares did you have in mind? |
