KRAKEN SPREADSHEET REPORT

Jump to default information post

Hello,

Since PatrickHarnet will not issue on GLBSE and will only accept 100 BTC slices, I created a pass-through for his Kraken Fund (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=100913.0).

Watch out for the new issue with ticker KRAKEN on GLBSE.

Price of shares: 0.01BTC each
Current weekly dividend: 0.000225 BTC (2.25%)
Buy back: Possible if Kraken Fund cease operation.

Rate is variable, 2.25% assumes the weekly target 2.5% is met.

This pass-through offers no guarantees. You will have to trust PatrickHarnet for returns.

Did you ask Patrick if this was ok ?

[Namworld]

Yes, I asked him. He was thinking about it apparently but didn't want to issue on GLBSE. I proposed to make a pass-through and he was okay with that.

[PatrickHarnett]

Did you ask Patrick if this was ok ?

Yes he did.  It wasn't within my current plan, and about 30 minutes before he contacted me I had I wondered how long it might be before someone did a pass through.  Thus I found it quite funny when his pm popped up.  I wish him well.

How long after Patrick pays interest do you wait to pay dividends on this security ?

"yeah, how long?"

(disclosure, purchased 1000 of these for fun  )

Paid.

Paid per 100 BTC block: 0.5319BTC
To pay per KRAKEN share: (0.5319BTC / 10000) * 0.90 = 0.000047871 BTC
Rounded up: 0.00004788 BTC per share

41618 shares paid at 0.00004788 BTC per share = 1.99266984 BTC

Edit:Who bought 1000 shares one second before I submitted my dividends  

Had to recalculate now. Should make 0.00004788 BTC per share total.

If I had enough Bitcoin I'd be in the waitlist for Kraken #2 but alas I am not rich in Bit...

Wait... so as part of your Kraken fund investment strategy, you purchased Kraken pass-throughs? (KPTs)

Makes sense, because if Kraken is a good investment, KPTs are a smart buy, so if KPTs are profitable Kraken is a...

I personally purchased a few, rather than the fund.  Otherwise that would be a bit weird.

Patrick defaulted @50% on capital, breaking a few terms of his offer:

This sits in "Securities" rather than my usual lending section thread because it is a little more aggressive in approach and not as reliable.

Based on some work I have been doing I believe there is space for this particular fund and because it is a little different labelling it Kraken seems appropriate.

Basic parameters:

• Fund commences 19 August 2012.  
• Investments may be made in multiples of 100BTC.
• Withdrawals may be made in multiples of 100BTC.
• Contributed capital is backed by my personal funds.
• Returns will be paid weekly (currently planning on Fridays) - no compounding or automatic reinvestment.
• Target and maximum return 2.5% per week. (for the ponzi people, that would be 361% annually, but it's only 130% because it is non compounding.)
• Minimum weekly return 0% - any losses will be funded personally.

You will need to request a unique deposit address and supply a unique return address.  I will have a sensible limit on the number of investors because I don't want to spend my whole life doing weekly payments.
Returns obtained over and above 2.5% are taken as my fee - that's how I can afford to support the minimum return and "insure" the capital.  If I have coins sitting idle, they don't lose money, but impact on the average return.

Obviously the question is "What am I doing with the coins?"  
If I was to provide a simple answer like buying 50 BFL singles and going mining, or putting 10,000 coins into XYZ asset on GLBSE then there wouldn't be much science in that and it would ruin the market that I am looking at.
Also, I do expect people to assume funds might simply be going into BS&T and accuse me of feeding an illegal activity.  Due to the vitriol that goes with that, this will not be an open thread because there will be no point debating that.

So what am I going to use funds for?  Some will be going into my "vulture" capital business interests, some into some long-term BTC investments I have held in real-life ventures (such as an equipment manufacturer), some in BTC assets, a small amount of futures trading, some into various risk/reward adjusted investments that are available in the bitcoin world.

Edit: Currently 25 registered users.  18 currently paid.
Edit 19Aug: The largest commitment made was 1000 coins, and that was before the closure of one of the largest (and smartest) BTC operations.  In fairness, I consider a 1,000 maximum per account is appropriate making the absolute maximum size of Kraken Fund 25,000.
