Hello all,
My name is Toufic Mansour and similar to most member, my background is in trading. My start was prop w/a Los Angeles outfit called Assent trading equity stocks primarily. Today, I primarily deal in physical bullion, trading w/several OTC centres (Dubai, Singapore etc...) from my place of residence in Grand Cayman.
With the recent news speeding things up; I am very interested in reach out to & speaking with top level programmers &/or business operators (e.g. Bitfloor, ICBIT etc...) re partnering for Cayman presence servicing non-US residents.
My first interest is in an exchange/trading platform (i.e. Mt Gox, RTBTC) for BTC trading....& soon after integrating (physical allocated) precious metals...for example (think BTC/Silver Eagles....or BTC/Gold Kilo Bars*...or BTC/British sovereign....you get the picture).
To emphasize though, the exchange/trading platform is only the start. Other ideas w/in the ecosystem are of great interest as well. For example, a platform to launch the first offshore digital trust for legal mediation/arbitration. A bitpay/bitinstant platform for the remittance market...apps/widgets that target (cruise ship) tourists and related businesses (dive shops, tour guides et al)
Last night news have sped things up & is primary reason I decided to post today. The plan is to turn my house* into an incubator/hackathon for the right programmers with room & board covered (& other awesome amenities!).
Serious prospects only please. Relocation IS a real possibility.
I look forward to hearing constructive input from you.
Many thanks in advance.
