Hello again biggbox,

Glad to hear that you managed to get connected and have now had the chance to take a look at our site.

You have raised some great questions which i will attempt to answer:

You are correct that investors are investing into projects/ventures at an early seed stage. We place all projects and their creators through a series of in depth vetting procedures to ensure that their concept is financially sound and that they have realistic ambitions. If a project needs some more fine tuning then we provide that assistance before allowing them to receive funding.
How the process for the investor works is that they can choose between being an active investor picking and choosing the various projects that they wish to support or  the second option is that investors can allocate their funds to a central "Fund" that is managed on their behalf. This fund selects projects based on various factors to ensure that risk and reward is balanced and mitigated where possible. Investors also have influence over how the fund is allocated by having the ability to upvote their favourite projects and at the end of each week the projects with the most votes have their funding round topped up if it hasn't quite reached 100%.
Investors take part by purchasing Seeds, Seed+ or Investor+ packages, each having their own features and benefits. These are then what an investor uses to allocate to the projects they wish to support as mentioned previously. Dividends are paid out to investors on either a monthly, bi-weekly, weekly or daily basis dependant on their balance of Seed, Seed+ or Investor+ in their wallet. It should be mentioned that the platform takes an active part in every project that it supports for between 6 - 18 months after they are successful in raising their funding, in return for this the platform holds a stake in each project with a buy-back mechanism should the project reach its stated targets, this provides additional revenue to investors.
I agree that the concept is rather complicated to understand due to various factors at play and because of this we are currently in the process of developing a couple of videos to help explain the concept in a more visual way that should help in the future.

I hope i have managed to answer your questions, if you would like to know anything else do not hesitate to ask.

Hi OP

I've successfully connected to your site through a North American proxy server.

I don't understand how your business works. Investors are investing into ideas & working concepts (projects) but investors are able to get dividend payouts on a regular basis? What if the concept or project is a flop?

So investors have the option of investing annual plans and get monthly dividends in return? Are you able to give us a work flow of how things work?

I am not trying to tarnish or paint a bad light on your organisation but I don't have a clear picture of your profitability model.

Thank you for your assistance. The site is still unable to load on my end. I will try it later through a North American proxy server later in the day.  

Hello again biggbox,

Thank you for providing the results of your ping and traceroute, i have forwarded these on to our dev team whom will work further to improve render times.
Some improvements have been made and i wonder if you are having better luck this time round?
If you could provide your results via this method then i can ensure they go direct to our dev team: https://tawk.to/CryptureCrowd

If there is anything else do not hesitate to reach out!

Thanks for the effort to connect to us

Hello biggbox,

Thank you for taking the time to visit our site, sorry to hear that it wouldn't render for you.
I have noted your comment to our dev team whom will investigate further. Did you attempt to sign in via the right hand menu and visit other pages or just the homepage?
I have just ran a test on our end with a cleared cache and it does render correctly after a couple of seconds. Could you possibly retry and let us know? We are on live-chat throughout the rest of the day should you encounter any further issues.

Thank you once again!

Unable to load the site. It is stuck in loading

In case you missed this weeks newsletter:

There will be a double dividend declared this weekend to celebrate Christmas for all new and existing investors!

Thank you all for your support.

Ps. there are only 2 forum discount codes left so if you are still looking to get involved there has never been a better time than right now!

Just a heads up: Only 4 Coupons are now left, so don't miss out!

A warm welcome to all new investors, if you have any questions do not hesitate to get in touch!

Hello Emerge,

Thanks for your constructive feedback it is much appreciated! We are glad you like the idea!

Sorry to hear you don't quite like our brand name, you are however correct in that it is a combination of Crypto and Venture as these are the two key "mechanics" in our business model, unlocking the potential of CryptoCurrencies & their power in supporting Start-up companies whilst at the same time expanding the FinTech universe as a whole.
Thank you for your comment in regards to slow render times, we can certainly take a look into this and see what improvements can be made.

To answer your question about how the P2P side of our platform works:
Essentially investors have two options: They can search through the various projects and select the ones they want to pledge their support to, thus the investor is in full control of how their money is allocated. The second option is that investors can allocate their funds to a central "Fund" that is managed on their behalf. This fund selects projects based on various factors to ensure that risk and reward is balanced and mitigated where possible. Investors also have influence over how the fund is allocated by having the ability to upvote their favourite projects and at the end of each week the projects with the most votes have their funding round topped up if it hasn't quite reached 100%. There are additional social elements to the platform that ensure the best P2P experience possible.
In terms of investment amount, currently investment options are broken into packs that have varying different features and benefits. To ensure the highest security level possible funds are currently converted into what "Seeds" that investors then allocate as previously mentioned. Projects then draw down their funding in either of any of the supported currencies including that of Fiat. We are working on this and are making various changes based on feedback, all features will be fully functional as of January 2016 and we will continue to ship new features on a regular basis.


Hello lumerie,

Thanks also for your questions.
Essentially you are right in that the platform functions much like KickStarter and Seedrs and the like, however we accept CryptoCurrencies and have additional features that they don't. We are very much looking to break the mold of your tradtional SF or Silicon Valley funding scene that does have it's downfalls. Much like the Bitcoin Protocol we believe that as a community we can accomplish great things as opposed to a centralised format that some sites operate.
Whatever you choose to invest goes directly to the projects that are supported via the platform. We have a unique model in how we deal with the projects that we accept on to the platform and how we help them succeed and thus there is no monthly fee for investors.

Thank you both once again for your questions and interest!

Is this like KickStarter?

I do not get why'd we have to pay monthly fees?

You guys have a great idea here.
What's wrong is your terrible name. Using crypto and what is ture from? Venture?
Just my 2 cents.

Anyway, it loads slowly too.

How is this in any way P2P Investing though?
"Invest in many start-ups with a single investment"

We don't even know what we're investing in, + how is 89$ a solid investment?
