Second bitcoin start-up to list
If it lists successfully, it will have a market valuation of almost $33 million and will become the second bitcoin start-up to list on the ASX, after digitalBTC. The latter joined the ASX through a $9.1 million reverse listing in 2014.
ASIC has issued two stop orders on Bitcoin Group's initial raising efforts. The first was within a fortnight of receiving the original prospectus – which put the listing date at September 2 – and the second, after the group was found to be promoting the fundraising round on a Chinese social media platform, WeChat, before the prospectus was approved and lodged.

The company's third prospectus says 90 per cent, $18 million, of funds raised will go towards developing operations conducted mostly across three sites in China, one in Iceland and a newer facility in Australia.

A maximum of $500,000 or 5 per cent of capital raised, whichever is less, from the raising will go to a bonus pool if the IPO is fully subscribed. This must be distributed within 60 days of the listing.

Directors will be repaid $230,000 in loans to the company. An individual can get a maximum of $150,000 from the pool. But even if the company manages to raise only $10 million, the bonus pool remains the same.
