1  Bitcoin / Meetups / Meetup with Erik Voorhees from Shapeshift ... Online! Tuesday, Oct 3rd on: September 27, 2017, 07:46:53 PM
For our very first episode next week on Tuesday, Oct 3rd we have Erik Voorhees, CEO and Founder of ShapeShift.io, a global crypto exchange that lets users instantly trade between leading blockchain assets, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero, Zcash, Dash, as well as dozens of others.  As of June, 2017, ShapeShift had been growing about 48 percent per month since its 2014 launch.  ShapeShift’s latest product is Prism, a hedgefund-like solution that Forbes described as a breakthrough.

>> Register here <<  for exclusive access to the live show to ask Erik questions or get access to the raw, unedited, full length replay instead of our edited and sanitized Youtube version in a couple weeks.   If you have a webcam we can probably even get you on the screen to ask your question in person.  I’ll also stick around an extra hour after the show so you can ask me any questions you want!    

PS if you want the replay of the conference we held in August, just email us at: info@100xinvestors.com

2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you invest in ICOs? on: July 30, 2017, 04:20:55 AM
I've invested in a few, but just like startups I expect 99%+ not to live up to expectations.  
I'm a bit picky about fundamentals.  

1) Potential for huge gains just like BTC/ETH on the 1% chance it does work out.
2) Easy access and less regulatory hurdle for smaller investors

Other reasons people might:
1) There seems to be a premium to even get in the hot ICOs so you can flip it for a profit on an exchange
2) As long as there is a market where people are buying ICOs at a premium at an exchange it makes sense.
3) A lot of wealthy BTC/ETH holders are hooked on the ICO idea (ETH was the original big ICO).  They're using house money and are less fearful of loss, diversifying holdings and also wanting to support their ecosystem

A good way is to create a youtube channel.

I am currently organizing a blockchain investors conference and decided on a purely online webinar format.  (https://100xinvestors.com)

I'm also planning workshops to help people get hands on with buying and transferring their first Bitcoin.  

Online webinar workshop formats are much better because people usually take care of financial activities from the comfort of home.  Physical workshops are less secure and inconvenient.

6  Economy / Service Announcements / [ANN] Peerhub.com... the people's marketplace on: February 10, 2014, 01:03:10 AM
Hey all,
We're creating a marketplace website called Peerhub.com that will allow people to buy & sell any good or service to each other.  We have a simple trust-based system so you can buy & sell more comfortably compared to Ebay or Craigslist.  We're also designing the website for the mainstream audience so it's not Bitcoin-only.  That should enable Peerhub to become a much larger marketplace. There will be no transaction fees for Bitcoin users.  I think this platform can encourage more people to open BTC accounts.  If you want an invite to the beta please email me at info@peerhub.com.  The beta/MVP (minimum viable product) should be up by the end of the month.  I'm looking for as much feedback as possible.  Anyone have anything or any service to buy or sell?  Let me know.  If you have any questions please feel free to ask away.  Thank you.
