I'll need a better understanding of how this is priced I see.

I am a little confused there myself. If that is correct this would be a really bad deal. Hopefully more information comes out soon.

A "basket of shares" = 50,000 shares = 0.2 bitcoins. So if I buy 50,000 shares at $20/share, then I will have in my hands 0.2 bitcoins for the low price $1,000,000. Sounds like a great deal ... for somebody at least!
There's no way that can be correct but if so, please cut me in on the deal. I'll gladly fork over a .2BTC w/ a tip for a lot less than a mill-ticket.

1 million shares at 20$ a share. So the share price can fluctuate, but the number of trading units needs to increase. I dream of many splits ahead. 'Coin splits'  added to the lexicon Wink
