Can look at doing this as convertible notes/shares if preferred and can fit in legal wise.

Will probably be easiest for EU investors.

Investment could be via tokenote or counterparty

Option one ILP. Investment in BTC,ETH or other crypto is used to issue FLAT(providing a tradable and voting rights) with a
contract recorded on the blockchain. With up to 40% of profits to be issued to the holders of loan (could be BTC,XRP,ETH,LTC) would depend on the legal side. This has the advantage that investors share in the success of the company in proportion to their investment.

Escrow would be the company itself via tokenote/counterparty if all investors are approved and willing to go this route.

Option 2, would be a 20% return (calculated on fiat, but payable in crypto) This would be on revenue rather than profit, so less share in any upside but less risk as paid regardless of profit.

Option 3, either of a or b, with an investment in fiat, and returns in crypto.

Looking for total investment of circa 40BTC (This could be a pool of up to 98 people) +myself and one other.

What will you spend the money on?

The big one- buying the business


To avoid time-wasters and tire kickers, I'd really appreciate interested parties, signing a message here and state the amounts they are considering.

Likely Objections


Isn't there risk? Of course don't use money you can't afford to lose.

What about collateral
The collateral would be the underlying company itself and its assets.

Should this not be in the loans sections?


No, because it wouldn't meet the requirements for fungible collateral

Why don't you just get a loan from a bank?

Their are no banks here which will lend base don the business income(I understand this is different in the USA) and I do not have the salary to fund this purchase on my own.

What about Escrow?


I'm open to it , if a realistic approach can be suggested. Perhaps a trustworthy forum member can collect and hold in a multisig wallet, returning crypto funds if anything goes wrong with the deal.
