Spark: The future is nowThread 3 of 4: Fund raising / IPOhttps://i.imgur.com/SZuDdMO.gif
If you are looking for actual information on Spark, follow this link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=525419
If you want more in depth answers about Spark (and its IPO): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=527405
Spark is a brand new cryptocurrency made by a team of 3 professional developers who wish to remain anonymous.
It takes the best from all the interesting cryptocurrencies out there (bitcoin, nextcoin, darkcoin) and mixes it with fresh and new ideas.
It is not a fork of existing code, but rather a brand new codebase with core concepts that are thought differently from existing cryptocurrencies.

Raising money: The IPO
If you do not know what Spark is, begin by reading the following thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=525419
As announced in our original post, we will never touch any of the funds that are raised. They will entirely be used for the promotion of Spark.
Our escrow will handle the bitcoins for us, and will use them in investments of our choice that promote Spark. None of the invested btc will come back to us.
We will ourselves invest in Spark just like everyone else. After a few days of IPO, we will decide how much we invest. Current plan is 1btc each, not more. We are not rich.
Unlike what we announced in our original post, we will give out 100% of all Sparks right away once the IPO phase is over. They will not be slowly given over 10 months.
The IPO will last for for 20 days. It will be closed at a random time on Sunday, April 13th.

Investing through our escrows
Most escrow services and private escrows turned us down, as they do not like the idea of handling this kind of business.
We have paid our escrow 1btc in advance, and will give them 1% of all the invested bitcoins to make up for the extra effort required.
Our escrow of choice is btc-asia. They are a well trusted service with a long history of bitcoin escrows.
They will provide instant refunds at any time until the IPO is over if you wish to cancel your investment.
The address to which you should send your bitcoin investment in Spark is: 1BFknD2rTAqTx1cSCdxNiP4smnofCwBohz
There is no minimum or maximum amount. Even one satoshi will get you a fair (but very small) amount of Spark.
Once your bitcoins are sent to the address, send us an e-mail at spark-crypto@linuxmail.org with the following information:
- A nickname we can use when talking to you -
- The amount of bitcoins sent -
- The transaction ID -
If you do not know you transaction ID, send us the precise date and time of your investment instead.
We will ask you to prove you are the owner of the bitcoin address that sent the transaction before we credit you.

Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it
will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

this is a little fishy...
how much spark will i get for x amount of btc? will it be based on percent of btc sent to that address? say i end up sending 1% of all the btc invested... i'll get 1% of spark? you should be clarifying how you are dividing this all up. or maybe i'm just an idiot.
how do we know all 1 bill will be released? how will you prove it?

Yes, you will get a % of Spark that is proportional to the % of btc you invested compared to the total btc in the IPO. If you invest 1btc out of a total of 100btc invested, you will indeed get 1% of all Sparks. All the sparks have already been minted and are in the hands of our escrow. They will be distributed by them as soon as the IPO is over. An escrow has much more to lose by losing their reputation than they have to win by stealing people's funds. We made sure to pick an escrow group that is involved in many projects and wants to keep on doing it professionally, knowing they will lose all their future business if they sabotage their trust ratings. As for the proof, Spark has a « genesis cloud » with the id 0, you will be able to trace all transactions emitted from this Spark Cloud. We can provide a public list of all transactions ids, since it is not possible to follow Spark transactions without knowing their ID (fully anonymous cryptocurrency). Once you know the ID though, you can verify that each transaction did indeed happen, and check that the genesis wallet has 0 balance remaining. If there is demand for it, we will provide this list after launch. Concerning any further inquiries, we will drop by here as often as possible, but prefessional, family, and social life get in the way sometimes. https://i.imgur.com/rRY7MUg.gif https://i.imgur.com/rRY7MUg.gif https://i.imgur.com/rRY7MUg.gif https://i.imgur.com/rRY7MUg.gif https://i.imgur.com/rRY7MUg.gif https://i.imgur.com/rRY7MUg.gif https://i.imgur.com/rRY7MUg.gif https://i.imgur.com/rRY7MUg.gif

How can we make sure that the BTC address is btc-asia's address? Can the escrow make any public announcement of the whole operation? Also. btc-asia-escrow@hotmail.com? hotmail, really? There is a website btc-asia.com, is it their website? Why the hotmail then? |

There is a website btc-asia.com, is it their website? Why the hotmail then? Good point.... why not the email listed on the website ( admin@btc-asia.com) or some other email id make for this exclusively ( sparks@btc-asia.com ?) or even something from the parent company @bitcoinmalaysia.com. Seems like a good idea and a little too thought out and detailed for me to call scam.... maybe they just overlooked details like these. |

yes. i think the escrow needs to confirm that they are indeed involved.
for all we know right now, that you be your private btc wallet address... and when finally questioned your escrow may say they had nothing to do with spark.

Here is an announcement thread for the btc-asia.com service posted on June 18th, 2013 by the member "ninjaboon": https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=237121.0. After doing a bit of investigating, things look good enough to me regarding the escrow. This coin sounds interesting and seems innovative. I am glad that they have decided to distribute all of the coins at once instead of releasing them 10% at a time. I also like that they addressed the question of how much they will invest in the IPO themselves. The long investment period of 20 days and the fact that there is no minimum investment offers anybody who is interested a fair chance to obtain some Spark. I personally feel that this distribution method is superior to mining. One question I have for the developers is how many total coins will there be? You mention in your earlier thread that one billion will be distributed initially, which could now be outdated information. Please clarify. |
