Hi! A few years ago I was a venture capitalist and thanks to an early investment in Bitcoin I was able to start my own business as a broker who matches investors with ventures according to their interests. Recently I encountered a number of entrepreneurs in the Bitcoin Community that are looking for funding, they search for funds in traditional ways such as: addressing Venture Capitals, Angel Investors, Linkedin etc.
I noticed that this community has a large number of early Bitcoin adopters who are waiting for their coins to gain value. I would like to offer them an alternative way by acting as angel investors – investing in early stage Bitcoin based ventures (Minimum $50,000 USD / 100 Bitcoins) or to jointly invest in more mature companies. Doing so can support the Bitcoin growth and allow investors to diversify their holdings, whilst still having some exposure to the Bitcoin.
I screen and check all of the companies, the entrepreneurs and Business plans. All of the ventures are required to get incorporated and all of the transactions are escorted by lawyers. I link the startups with the investors, the startups make a presentation and show them their idea.
Investors are not required to commit but they are asked to prove they have funds to invest.
Currently all of the ventures are Israeli based as it is easier for me to meet them in person and check their credibility but if this project will be successful I will consider expanding to ventures in different countries as well.
I personally prefer companies that work with security of Bitcoin, services, advertising etc... I’m not a fan of mining improvements and gambling. My stake is in shares only - I do not charge any other commission which means that I strongly believe in each of the startups I offer.
You are most welcomed to contact me here Names and details of Investors will remain discreet.
