Topic: [GLBSE] BitDayTrade A fixed interest bond of 3% per week! (Read 5190 times)
The bond offering is relaunched, and has a new thread - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/glbse-bdt-3-weekly-interest-bond-backed-by-bitdaytrade-93445.
Will there still be pre-IPO sales?
All I can say is...Jeez........
Rofl, now I know that this security will stick to its word.
At least I can comfortably cancel my bids and retrieve the BTC for a few weeks

I am currently in talks with someone else to take over the role of managing this IPO.
Since we have not yet finalized the terms and due to some important changes that need to be made in the contract, trying to go forward with the IPO today as previously mentioned would lead to too much chaos.
I will delay the IPO until I'm confident we can carry it out properly, which I hope will be in 2-3 weeks. Our potential investors deserve more than a rushed IPO.
I'm sorry for these delays and the confusion caused, and thank you for your patience.

I mean Rebate long suffered delays, so having delays in BDT... does not make me feel warm and secure.
These delays we're looking at are very different in nature. REBATE was delayed due to development work rescheduling while BDT is up and running, and i'm delaying the IPO to mantain my word that Rebate shall be up before BDT IPO. Makes sense ?
I mean Rebate long suffered delays, so having delays in BDT... does not make me feel warm and secure.
IPO postponed to Tuesday 26 at the same time.
Why? Again, this is not confidence-inspiring.Because rebate will be up and running tomorrow morning, i'm doing last test rounds. It's very related to this IPO as you must have learned. It should rather be confidence-inspiring, since i'm finishing a project which lamented long unacceptable delays before launching a new IPO.
Care to explain what you mean ?
Cheers

I don't like working with people that leave lose ends hence I decided to back off from this project for now.
This is very important, and your reaction is understandable. I dove into REBATE after your announcement and still waiting for it to
I think I'll invest in BDT too, but I hope we'll get more transparency and professionalism from now on.
The difference is that BDT is supposed to give 3% on face value in any case. REBATE won't give anything until its up and running.
Plus it sounds like he is only the developer of REBATE but completely responsible for BDT.
I agree that his linkedin profile does not inspire confidence and the information out there on Enso is not very positive. Perhaps this is why he must borrow BTC at a rate of 3% per week.

This is very important, and your reaction is understandable. I dove into REBATE after your announcement and still waiting for it to become a success. I can't see any reason why it couldn't be launched later, or why more information couldn't be provided afterwards regarding its future.
I think I'll invest in BDT too, but I hope we'll get more transparency and professionalism from now on.
The reason why I decided to back of from the project for now is due to that I received the information that Alberto was main developer for Rebate, a project that has cost me reputation,time and money. I don't like working with people that leave lose ends hence I decided to back off from this project for now.

As an owner of REBATE shares, the delay in REBATE doesn't give confidence. It is nice if it starts working soon, but I personally would like to see it run a while and generate income before I invest in another project from the same owner...
Actually i don't know manage directly REBATE asset, it is managed by a trusted third party. I'll test run the site for about a week before it's handed over to the new management permanently.
Any chance to change the contract or respond to questions why the buyback clause states: "The issuer has the right to buy back,at any time, all bonds issued for twice the price of the previous 120 hour average market price."
Do you expect the bond price to devaluate at some time in the future (for example if you stop paying dividends). Why not buy back the bonds at the original IPO price? It's basically a debt with fixed interest rate.

I'm CEO of Enso Limited Hong Kong,the profile is regularly updated and i have connections with some important companies CEOs and individuals that i happened to know during the Enso Limited endeavour. During said endeavor we had to face thousands of angry customer because of delays in shipment of products, and i think we did a good job if Engadget kept on reviewing our devices for months after we've launched the first iteration. You can read about that on the link you'll find at http://www.enso-now.com
You and your company took so much beating on engadget.
It's really a surprise you've decided to put that link here. Looking at the given record and the names they've been calling you, you really expect someone to trust you with their money, while there's a possibility to be delivered more of the same?
After OP backed down with obscure reasons I've rarely found in legit business and information revealed in your post, I might as well go with the pirate.
At least I don't know what he's doing and no one called him a liar yet.
Thanks for being upfront with such information. It was a great help having such insight while deciding on your IPO.
Beating is normal on Engadget for a small startup, standards are very high. The companies they post the most about are big names, with billions in cash. Anyhow, this IPO is based on a real business, that will grow with time. I have provided these kind of extensive informations because i don't have anything to hide in my view, and i do believe in transparency. I wish you best of luck in investing with other ventures.

Are you going to verify on glbse ? While Ludvig is trustworthy I dont know Alberto and untill we find out why Ludvig left the project I dont think I can invest. Disclosure is needed and verification on glbse will help too.
I already explained the reason, i got it directly from Ludvig, by chatting with him on skype. I won't paste chat logs here, i will ask him tomorrow to clarify this. As already said, i'm ID verified on GLBSE (sent passport), you can check the verification tab at https://glbse.com/asset/view/BDT.

So are you going to shed any light on why it's no longer endorsed by the OP? As an investor, it makes me feel kind of queasy
The OP misunderstood that i was in charge of rebate too, and the project delayed too long, that caused him financial losses and he's willing to step out until we have a clear situation, with bitcoinrebate up and running. I'm identify verified on GLBSE and pretty well know on the internet by the way, if this can ease your feeling of queasiness.
On top of that bitcoinrebate.com will be up and running tomorrow before the IPO.

Hi,
The IPO is still happening and rebate is set to be launched within 12/24 hours. Payments of dividends will start this week.

Since he's apparently claiming/operating REBATE, will he also be paying dividends on that bond?
ETA: Oh -- missed OP edit.

A situation has dawned in which some information not previously known to me has come up, hence for no I am steeping back from this project and from this IPO. It no longer has my support or my encouragement behind it until some things has been cleared up, really sorry to all the investors and that I had to go back on my words (which I try to never do) but in this case it was necessary.
Requesting more disclosure.
Waiting for it to be approved.
Is this still happening?

Hello,
The issuer Alberto has several companies and enough capital/assets to ensure that this bond gets paid according to the contract.
I ensure you that even if the company doesn't go well the bonds will still be paid

Just a quick logic question.
If he has funds on this scale, then why does he need to borrow money from a few Bitcoiners at high interest in the first place?
He needs a large,regular, liquid supply of coins? Also one way to get people committed to the success of your venture is to adequately compensate them.
Companies, capital, and assets != BTC. It's more like saying, "I need BTC to pursue business ventures, but if something goes awfully wrong, I'll sell my third car to pay back my investors" than saying "Give me money. I don't really need it, and I won't invest it, but I'll pay interest".

It will be a nice investment opportunity for GLBSE investors if it's fully worked out.
But there are something that's not included in the google doc page. That is, I don't know which one of the following is true.
1. Alberto is the sole owner of BitDayTrade. Only he is responsible of repaying. You are the investment bank/PR for him.
2. Both Alberto and you own some shares of BitDayTrade. You are partly responsible for this bond.
I have to ask because it does make a lot of difference.

The issuer has the right to buy back,at any time, all bonds issued for twice the price of the previous 120 hour average market price.
Why not a clause like "either twice the price of the previous 120 hour average market price or 0.103 BTC, whatever is higher"? Otherwise you have a strong motivation to dump share prices after some time, keep it down for 120 hours and then buy back cheaply. Also if you say 3% interest, you mean 3% of 0.1 BTC which is the value of each share. It would only make sense that you can buy them back for that price too (at a small premium maybe) and neither overpriced (twice the price) nor under the face value.
Also please include a clause how you'd handle expansions of that bond (let's say you want to issue 10000 more bonds) - at which price will they get into the market and will you pre-announce this?
Also the usual:
Current pirate exposure? Any planned future pirate exposure?
Curious about these questions as well.
And subbed.
Nice. Will be getting a few of these
Hi,
Developer of the site here, i would like to ensure everyone that all payments will be honored and the platform already started to be profitable. Of course volumes need to grow, but the profit generation mechanism is proven. Additionally we will be adding Bitcoin margin trading in the next 12 hours as an additional profit driver. Thanks anyone for watching, questions and feedbacks are welcome.

What about about possible BTC price increase. Will you still able to pay 3% per week in BTC let's say a year later?
I second that question about buyback price. Rather do it like Goat does in his Tyggr-bond-B. This is too risky for investors as well as for you possibly too.
