Looking for investor of 8.5 BTC

[sron]

Hi there,

This is a newbie account but I have been following the Bitcoin forum for a long time.

I was wondering if someone would be interested in investing 8.5 BTC in an IPO/Startup?

I am about to set up an IPO on GLBSE and I would be happy to offer bitcoins to a value of 85 USD in return within 6 months, under condition that the venture is profitable enough to break even after all expenses are paid including this one.

can you elaborate ?

[Plunt]

agreed, surely you are in need of far more details in regards to what the company will do? is it another mining company? what track record do you have? what mining experience? what type of systems. the list is endless. highly recommend you revise your post so people can get a better idea.

that being said, best of luck with your IPO

In a nutshell: Who are you, and why should we trust you to not run off with the coins? 8.5 BTC seems small for an IPO, and if you do not have the ~$45 to invest how are you supposed to earn the 85 USD in return? Also, I'm concerned with this(highlighted). Are you in effective telling me that, 'I'll payback IF and only IF I profit, and you'll be stranded with no coins IF I don't profit.'

Sorry for being harsh - but there is a long drama in the lending subforum already which is related to this kind of 'investment' stuff.

Bitdragon,

It is an IPO within the intersection of financial services and web development. It is not a mining operation.

I estimate that the likeliness of me being able to provide said return on investment is 95%.

Anyone who wants to get involved with the operational side of the business can send me a message through this forum after the IPO.

The IPO will launch within three days from me being able to raise the initial investment of 8.5 BTC.

I do this because I believe in the BTC cryptocurrency. As a matter of fact, I think bitcoins will change the world forever and GLBSE and similar stock exchanges will play a large part in it. The question is how long it will take and whether it will happen in our lifetimes.

I am going to develop the company partially with the bitcoins raised through the IPO.

I hope that gives a somewhat clearer picture.

To other potential investors:

All investments come with risk. I will try to ensure that this venture is a success. If 8.5 BTC seems a bit steep I would be happy to split the amount on two investors of 4.25 BTC each. It is a micro investment but if we get along then perhaps we can collaborate again in the future.

8.5 BTC is the investment to launch a GLBSE IPO right?

How much are you looking to raise through the IPO ?

I don't understand what "offer bitcoins to a value of 85 USD in return within 6 months" means.

Does this relate to What I get in return ? the equivalent of 85USD per Bitcoin invested? 
95% chance of paying back within 6 months sounds a bit of a stretch for a business providing a service.

Pirate pass through bonds get attention on GLBSE not for being transparent but at least having a track record of living up to expectations.

there are no obligations, but on of the two would seem helpful to have some success on GLBSE.

I am all for supporting new Bitcoin businesses and feel free to jump in and expose the plan.

Scam detected?

On EVE Online this thread would be defined as "scam" by everyone

This has scam written all over it.

BitDragon,

I am currently considering trying to raise bitcoins to a value of 100000 USD through the IPO.

What I am offering in this case is a micro investment:

Explanation:

I will aim to return bitcoins to a value of 85 USD to the investor. 8.5 BTC today have a value of about 42.5 USD. Thus, this would be a 100% ROI if the venture is successful. It is a micro investment obviously but I am looking to collaborate with investors on a long term basis so this could be a good first contract to start with.

I will try to ignore negative remarks from negative people as much as possible. It's just not worth it.

Does not compute. If your project can turn in a profit, then surely it can generate the 8.5BTC ?

Well hang on, that was before I read "I am currently considering trying to raise bitcoins to a value of 100000 USD through the IPO.".

Carry on.

This. Ignores me when I asked you about your identity too. Bolded part too.

[bitdragon]

I would start by selling a smaller service or product to raise your 1st 8.5BTC_

Clearly, there is not much at all to base ourselves on.

How old are you?

Raising 45$ and then 100KUSD will require some transparency and a minimum of hype.

Through a PM, you could elaborate in more details and I will abide by a non disclosure agreement. Failure to not disclose will prompt payment of 10BTC immediately to you

And I will leave this here to hopefully inspire you

Scam confirmed 

[mike.wolf]

scam :d

[wirmola]

scammer..

[sron]

Everyone who says scam or posts negative remarks have automatically disqualified themselves as investors in this project.

I want to work with reasonable people, the kind of people who do not judge too quickly, the type of investor who recognizes opportunity and legitimate projects.

I do not want to work with cavemen who as soon as they notice something they do not recognize start throwing rocks.

At the moment I am working on some other projects and I will return to this thread as soon as possible.

BitDragon, I will get back to you.

You want to raise thousands of dollars, and don't want to spend $45 bucks on a cryptocurrency that, in your own words, "will change the world forever"? Either you're really stupid, or just a scammer. I think it's the latter.

[smracer]

Will you accept Rexcoins?

[terrytibbs]

I will invest Solidcoins.
