Topic: finding investors - page 10. (Read 1809 times)

investors are looking at something more attractive than whitepapers, Old crypto investors have so much learnt so much out of the loss they made from several scams in the past, so are more difficult to convince. Partnership with existing and thriving institute will definitely attract investor. Imagine an ICO with Microsoft partnership, especially when it has a relevant use case with the institute.

There are actually a lot of investors here, some are even real-world investors. It can also be possible for a company to accept bitcoin as an investment, of course it is in their own discretion. It depends upon you on how will you lay down your business plan to gather investors if you are aiming to gather investors here in the forum. This might be a difficult task since most people here would like to remain anonymous which will be risky for you and as well for them.

To find investors can be hard or easy, all depends for what you need investors and what is the plan to do with money invested, and how much you give back to investors and in what time. Always smart investors will know if is good to invest on a bussines or no.

Based on the project concept.

There are projects that want to apply the idea of using crypto even I found it not suitable or let's say doesn't make sense (according to my view). It's not easy to attract investors on a project that can be consider as "cross bordering" between real world and crypto or I don't know if this the right term to this.

If you are really eager to attract more investors or some sponsors for funding, think outside the box what will be the good reason why should someone will put money on your project. No way they will just throw money on a something that will not have a promising return (remember, "investors").

I can't really tell you what's are the exact things to be done because you know your project more than us. Goodluck having a brainstorming on what things you should do. Patience mate.

Well, it is a matter of decision. There are investors and even a lot do use and trust cryptocurrency, particularly bitcoin and I believe that these people did not just make decision overnight. I believe that they sat down ponder about the risk and their possible loses and still did decide to. In the first place you are not going to put all your eggs in a basket when you know that your basket has a visible hole where your eggs can surely slip down and you don't just put them all in that one basket with out securing the rest in a more durable and secure basket. You must put up some security for your investment. If you think that investing them all in cryptocurrency will be too dangerous then divide your capital and put some into a more sure and secure one.

Some projects are collecting money from ICOs [selling some tokens] "I do not recommend it."
You can rely on donations as an initial stage and when the project is successful you will find a lot of attention and support. "Your idea must make a real transition."

Start with self-financing and design the whitepaper and then exploit this forum and some sites for publicity and get investors "the best way but require patience." If the project is as small as "BitcoinTalk Public Information Project (BPIP)," you can find some here ---> Project Development.

Bitcoin investors do exist; however, the attitude should not be that different from "fiat investors" if we talk about real corporations. For example, Roger Ver --I know that he brings so much negativity and his behavior is so unethical after BCH, but I need to mention him for the sake of this argument-- is one of the first people who built businesses from bitcoin and invested in many bitcoin-based businesses.

It would be best if you have a good business plan, MVP, and a legal entity from the beginning. If you do not have that, consider using the bootstrap method. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bootstrap.asp
I do not recommend using crowdfunding or ICO since you might have a legal problem in the future.

If all go as planned, you can be more comfortable to attract investors in some blockchain event.

true, but how does it work using bitcoin. how does contracting work? is it safe? can you be conned? is it better to use bitcoin investors or does it depends on the business as well?

yes that was the cause of failing in my first project, i got past that and got an investor via an event a hackathon. but that didn't go as well, that's when i learned that the team you work with is an essential component as well. I moved on. but the last project I am working on is a local business in my home city, not much investors around to convince, nor much events to help me out in this matter. having trouble finding investors than them not willing to invest. when it comes to profit it is really not that profitable at first. only self sustained but made to grow in future.

Finding investors for a project no matter real world project or online project is not easy task to do. You need to offer something good but reasonable for possible investors, you also need to have clear information about the project such as your team identity, your plan/roadmap of the project, etc. Too many aspect to be mentioned but you can learn from successful investment. Learn what they offer, what they do, and how they manage the offers.

Yes, they do exist. There are lots of investors here in this forum.


Yes, they can also invest in a real-world project it just depends on what type of investment or project that is?

What I see here is that the reason you failed in your project is that, the investor doesn't find any profit to your projects. If your project can be profitable then you will not be having a hard time finding investors.

When ever a new company/startup looking to raise/start its business, they do consider one of many ways to find investors Through top-tier business schools, industry friends, Angel investor networks, Crowd funding and by city's entrepreneurial community. All that by Proving they are market ready.
I am myself trying to do the same, failing multiple times at finding investors and funding my business. (I have not reached the phase of giving up yet)
I want just to get some advice on bitcoin investors. do they exist? how can I find them? can they invest in real world project not just invest in online projects. Can bitcoin be one of the ways that a company/startup can seek to raise up? having patience as an enemy, making hasty decisions, having hope, and sometimes lack of knowledge is it a good idea to seek the bitcoin way.
And I quot "The biggest risk is not taking any risk... In a world that changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks." Mark Zuckerberg
Is using bitcoin investment worth the risk? more people will go with the normal and stable flow because bitcoin is too risky. Personally i think it is worth the risk, but how can a person grantee and secure his startup, bitcoin investment knowing that many countries do not accept bitcoin as a legitimate money and therefore no business contract can be made.

Ps: I apologies for my English.
