[ANN] [BCAP] THE FIRST DIGITAL LIQUID VENTURE FUND - BLOCKCHAIN CAPITAL FUND

[zebulun]

By owning this BCAP token, do we get exposure to companies you've already invested in such as Coinbase & Kraken?

Or are we instead just getting exposure to new startups that you invest in going forward?

50% of the fund is reserved for follow-on opportunities - which means that if one of the companies in the funds I and II will be doing a follow-on financing round, the BCAP token fund can invest.

The other 50% of the fund will be used for new investments.

The fact this is SEC compliant might make it go through the roof very fast. I requested more info as I subscribed just now to the newsletter. I do hope I will be eligible to invest, even though I don't have much spare funding but would love to buy a few to back up my coin asset fund.

How is the ICO money being raised? Is it just bitcoin that's being accepted?

We're all looking forward to the memorandum later on today. As always thanks for all the correspondence thus far. I did have another question after discussing some risk elements  with a few of my friends/colleagues. Hate to skeptically poke and prod once again, but really need  to be clear on this: We saw the minimum lock-in time before liquidation for world  investors is 40 days while US investors have a minimum lock-in period of 1 year. So if the fund for any reason started tanking, or alternatively if it took off to a point where  we'd feel motivated to trim off some profit and trade the token, we from US soil would be asymmetrically disadvantaged by remaining locked-in while offshore investors can do what they please or could  totally bottom the fund out if decided upon exiting en masse? I understand that one upside to minimum lock-in periods is fostering long term oriented investments based on faith in the quality of assets, and avoiding pure profiteering, but need to understand why there is such a skewed difference between US and non-US investors, as well as what your motivations are behind that. Additionally understand that the crowdfunding only consists of $10 million USD while there is another larger $40 million USD accounted for by traditional investors - who are these traditional investors and do they have a lock-in time similar or longer than a year which would tremendously mitigate this risk? That would make a difference. If you can give me a reasonable justification for why this exists I will rest easier with deciding on my prospective investment.

Dear KB - thank you for your interest. The need for the 1 year lock-up for US investors is to do with US securities laws. There is not much we can do around that unfortunately.

The investors in the traditional LP fund are locked in for the whole period of the fund, which is not confirmed yet, but could be around 7-10 years in line with other venture capital funds. LPs in the traditional fund do not have liquidity at all unlike token holders.

I hope you still like the project and would be interested to invest.

Marina,

Much appreciated. That's a big confidence booster knowing the LP's are committed long term and represent the majority stake of the fund. I figured that the reason was regulatory in nature. Still like the project.

Hi Marina,

I just stumbled upon the BCAP project and your helpful answers in this thread already provided me with a really good overview.

I have two (rather basic) questions however:

The plan is to reinvest 75% of the profits back into the fund. Obviously this should give the fund a great source for future investments, but what incentive does that bring to the token holder? If there is no plan to ever pay dividends (or some kind of bonus) to token holders, why should someone invest in the token in the first place or even be willing to pay more than the ICO price for the token when traded?  Even if the fund does exceptionally well, none of the token holders will ever see any of the profits, right?

Also, I understand that most regular people form the US won't be able to participate. Will they still be able to buy the tokens from an exchange, once the non US token holders are allowed to trade it?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts regarding this.

Cheers,
Tony
