Would you please let us know whether you are a USA based business and whether you are going to be listed on bitfunder?
I have been in talks with several knowledgable people about the current situation at Bitfunder and the associated BitPride shares.

After careful deliberation I have decided to sell the asset and all of the related intellectual property.

I will be conducting a sale right here on the forum, and begin taking offers from private buyers.

Whatever the site is sold for, the proceeds will be evenly distributed amongst all 50,000,000 shares.

Whoever buys the asset will have the option to either take it down or re-list it at a fair market value.  

I will be posting up details about the sale as soon as possible.

If any of you have questions about whats taking place please do not hesitate to PM me.

Thank you all.

so i just went to check out the featured products and have to say it´s pretty disappointing. what happened to the idea of minimalist designs? is anyone even taking care of the shop?
KonstantinosM provided some pretty good ideas.
i mean it really shouldn´t be too much to ask for (as an investor) that you have a couple of minimal desgins. to me it seems like the makers behind bitpride have better things to do than taking care of this project.  Undecided

OK, I'm just brainstorming here. What about a shirt that changes monthly and has an issue number like a comic book?

In this shirt you get the most important  or relevant bitcoin news story turned into a beautiful piece of art (on the shirt) and it gets changed every 15th day of the month....

For example a recent shirt could have a German theme to it, and something close to: Germany recognizes Bitcoin.

The shirt could also have the price of bitcoin somewhere and other details that stay in the same place in its layout.

The shirt could also be the most inexpensive/standard shirt in the catalogue making people want to buy and keep buying it.


This may go a long way in building a customer base with people buying the monthly shirt in a row getting a small discount.




What is the thread in which you're selling Bitcoin Pride shirts in the forums? PM?
I may just buy my first bitcoin shirt in the next few days.  Grin


Off Topic:   

There are many great products to be made in the BTC world such as a physical wallet (comes with most of the blockchain, enough memory and a way to sync from a wireless connection from a nearby cellphone or Wireless network (or connecting with its very own SIM card) Benefits of a physical wallet (extra security, maybe standardized offline backups through a usb port and automatic backup option)

An Electronic vehicle charging station that accepts bitcoin. (It probably already exists by the time you're reading this (or even before I typed it))

A file hosting service with quick download speeds that charges in Satoshis (0.0000001 BTC)

A jukebox in a cafe/ restaurant that takes Bitcoins.

A vending machine that vends money for bitcoins that vends bitcoins and money. People would be able to put in USD or BTC. (in a local business)

An electronic rechargeable coin that stores bitcoin safely offline (For storing large amounts of bitcoin offline safely).

(The first and last device in this list would work together really well, the last device would require far less memory and capability)


I can edit that last part out if this is too off-topic.

I suggest making a few new minimalist and inexpensive designs and marketing them as such. Getting the message out about bitcoin is important and if the shirts are so expensive Bitcoin pride may lose a lot of potential customers.

I don't have any good suggestions for marketing in mind.

Just my 2 satoshis.
I agree, minimalist white tees are some of our best sellers. We are currently having issues with our ebay account, as we had several charge-backs from the Bitcoin USB orders. Doing my best to get that back up, in the mean time the sites doing ok, but we definitely need to do more on the marketing.


Fight every chargeback you get. You shipped physical. They didn't pay. End of story.
Good luck!

If only they paid in BTC...

So you raised thousands of BTC from IPO and hold $800 of stock?  What's the rest of capital being used for - or has the rest all vanished?

Pretty sure he was just selling profit shares of an existing business. As in funds are not used to launch anything/expand, just to acquire rights to profits which the current owner sells.
This is 100% true.

However, it is also true that all the Bitcoins I got in the IPO 7 months ago (was not thousands of BTC, and was actually less than 400 BTC at roughly $20 at the time) were all spent and documented on marketing/seo/development/contests/promotions/real merchandise/bitcoin convention/ and general business expenses to keep bitpride operational (we took $4000 in inventory with us to the Bitcoin convention alone).

Also it's important to note that I reinvested my own money (over $10,000) in the company two months ago to buy usb miners and sold them off on our eBay BitPride account. That was able to sustain our dividends through June while I caught up on backed t-shirt orders. The USB block Erupters have plummeted on eBay recently (due to mining difficulty) so again I am looking for more revenue generating models to bring more profits into the business.

I am here to answer any relevant questions, and take any serious suggestions for profit growth you all may have.

Thank you all for your concerns!
