This scam is a very clever operation. Don’t fall for it!! Everyone can make a pro-like whitepaper but that doesn’t mean it is a valid organisation.

Study the team members and you will find out, that some of them left a ponzi scheme and deceived lots of investors! Be warned!

A quick update:
We have been observing The DAO and find that a structure like The DAO might be better suited for XBV.
We are looking into transitioning XBV into a model similar to The DAO.
This project is still alive and will commence when everything is ready.
Sorry for any delays but they are to help make Blockchain Ventures successful.

We would like to apologize for the lack of communication and updates.
There were some delays as a result of unexpected events that needed tending to.
There will some more information provided shortly.
As a result of this delay, there will be an extension of the donation period.
Thank you for your patience.

I will be escrowing the donations for Blockchain Ventures.

All donations can be sent to 1EiFjM1yZwgpL2TfcuGax2eTUc9QwwF5pf.

After the donation period is finished, I will distribute 950000 XBV + staked XBV to the donators. Each donator will receive an amount of XBV that is proportional to the amount that he donated.

When you donate, please PM me the transaction id of your donation, your XBV address, and your name.

hmm , ok, well now this is confusing ;\
so it's one thing to say that we give you our btc as a donation and get a token (woot?) as replacement
the newbie account, and asking for it as a donation, why would anybody in their right mind send you their btc?
for a worthless token anyone can make in five mins?
and you knightdk, why would you put yourself involved in this shit?
how easy would it be for this newbie dev to take this btc
hell we couldnt even bitch, it's worded as DONATIONS
what incentive is there for you? seems alot of risk...
or is this dev your alt account?
cause no reputable member would escrow this unless they were involved imo

The donation period was made possible so that in the future people would not be able to complain about not being able to have a fair chance to get XBV.
Everyone will have at least two full weeks to observe and decide for themselves if they wish to have anything to do with this project.
We considered a completely closed launch but decided that it would be better for the future of Blockchain Ventures to give the community a fair and early chance to participate if they wish.
Anyone can make a worthless token in five minutes but considerable time, resources, and consideration have been put into XBV than what is needed for a basic coin.
Higher risk typically yields higher returns, it is rare to find high returns with low risk.
We understand your concerns with this project.
Blockchain Ventures expects and has planned for minimal initial involvement from the community.
Instead of simply calling this shit or being suspicious please feel free to bookmark Blockchain Ventures so you can continue to watch our progress.
Time will prove everything and you might find yourself pleasantly surprised at what you see in the future.
Thank you for your interest.

Not very. He will be sending me the XBV to be distributed and I will be distributing that before I send him the btc.

The burn address for which the XBV to be burned will be sent to is xe2EibataUsN8Vop3nV7JhHUWTRgjsstjs.

This address is a p2sh address with a redeemscript of
Code:
OP_2 OP_3 OP_EQUAL
which is an unspendable script because 2 does not equal 3 and thus will always fail.
In hex this is
Code:
525387
Anyone can verify this with the command
Code:
decodescript 525387
in the command console.

Thank you for verifying and validating the burn address.
Blockchain Ventures will be making use of xe2EibataUsN8Vop3nV7JhHUWTRgjsstjs in future operations.

I just have read the updated OP. The project is interesting, however the prospects for the success of this project are 100% dependent on who is running it.

You write "Blockchain Ventures will acquire stakes in other blockchains or blockchain related projects that it views to be either undervalued or showing great potential.".
The main question here is - who is deciding whether some some "blockchains or blockchain related projects" are undervalued or overvalued? The abilities of that person are crucially important for the project.

Thus comes the question - are you going to reveal some identities behind this project? If not, how would you show you have the required knowledge or qualifications to successfully invest the funds into the right projects? Everyone could just write "I will take your capital and increase it due to profitable trading". But not everyone can make it profitable. How could potential investors be sure (or at least hope) your trading is going to increase the funds, instead of decreasing?

Sorry for my English. Hope my questions were clear enough...

You are correct, the abilities of those in charge of operations is crucially important for Blockchain Ventures.
This project would not have been started if we were not confident of those in charge of operations.
Everyone can write "I will take your capital and increase it due to profitable trading" but not everyone is doing what Blockchain Venture's aims to do and using our methodology.
Although XBV is starting off as a small project, time and resources was put into making this possible so XBV was not created to waste time.
Every aspect of this project was considered and is being carried out in a way that is best for Blockchain Ventures in the long term.
Revealing any identities would either have a neutral effect or possible other effects of possibly creating unnecessary hype or expectations for this project and bringing more attention to it.
The results of Blockchain Venture's operations will be transparent and will speak for itself.
Initial operations and development was intended to start small and then scale up once thoroughly tested.
As Blockchain Ventures scales up and expands operations, revealing any identities will be considered.
Thank you for your concerns and interest
