The situation regarding Covid and the economy is fluid, therefore it is important that you adapt accordingly, from trimming the fat from costs, utilising free channels of conversation and building relationships.

For the ANGEL token, I would like to see more integration with the platform and we are considering how this can be done and increase the inflow of funds to start-ups at the same time. We are considering allowing the ANGEL tokens to be used as part of an investment payment at a pegged rate (regardless of exchange value).

This way if someone invests £100 they could use a number of tokens to pay for it alongside fiat.

Hmm, that's a tough question. I guess it comes down to two things really.

1) People only receive ANGEL tokens through taking actions on the platform
2) ANGEL tokens are in essence free, given as a reward for these actions.

Why does that matter?

Firstly, if you had committed funds to CfA during our fund raise, you were actually investing in a bond with the funds support many businesses who sort loans on Crowd for Angels. The bond has to date been paying investors interest and continues to do so. Therefore the value of your investment has remained the same with interest added on top.

Secondly, as a participant in the bond, you had taken an action and thus earnt ANGEL tokens. These tokens are and were given free as a reward, as mentioned in point 1 & 2. They currently trade on IDEX (with LOW liquidity). If you chose to sell you ANGEL tokens you would potentially make a gain there.

As well as giving the tokens away for actions, Crowd for Angels also committed to buying the tokens back from the bonds we funded, thus create a demand for the token. We had also intended for it to be part of our ecosystem and be allowable as payment towards an investment. As an operational company it is a matter of scale rather than developing an idea.

I hope that helps, personally I had invested in a number of ICOs and many didn't pay off as well, but with anything of this nature, it is best to only spend what you can afford to lose.
