The managers of Teehe declare that this IPO is now terminated.
As stated in Prospectus document, IPO will be terminated before April 1st, 24:00 UTC.

IPO has failed as minimum of $90,000 was not pledged by investors.

We will start payback procedures within 12 hours, depending on manpower available and we expect to finish it within next 48 hours.

We have received a decent number of requests today as last minute request to participate, and they have all been declined. We are sorry if we did not answer to everyone with explanation and we consider this post a proper explanation for our declining.

Some statistics:

Total pledged and deposited funds stand at just under $60,000; also $3,000 authorized but not delivered and $4,800 offered but declined by the managers in last 48 hours.


Great majority of funds have been deposited in form of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin also experienced great loss of value during this period, sliding down from $290 to low of $236 endangering value of pledged funds.

Just under 30 persons have participated in this crowd funding.
Total number of inquires was not much larger, at about 45.
About 190 messages was exchanged with investors in private.
This forum has 134 comments and is second most viewed post on this forum of all time.

Even though we promised total anonymity, about 40% of applicants either used standard alias or provided more than enough information to deduct their identity.
Some applicants presented their real name.

It is guaranteed by the managers that no information will be leaked and all evidence will be destroyed after payback is complete.



We thank you all for supporting us and asking right questions. Thanks to those who doubted us for keeping the balance.

I just visited your website and first thing that struck me was this sentence: "We aim to provide a secure, user-friendly platform using a nonvolatile digital currency".
Care to explain to me what it means? Because from what I could see every 'digital currency' is volatile.

Welcome to the world of https://nubits.com/

Nu has maintained a 1:1 peg to the USD for over 6 months now.

Teehe will utilize NuBits in the backend system exclusively, allowing Bitcoin deposits and denominated balances in USD, or whatever currency the user prefers.

We have added new developers, as well other new changes over the last week so the business plan needs a bit of an update. It is still worth the read http://teehe.net/pdf/teehe-businessplan.pdf

It is an exciting time for the venture as funding is about to close and development begin.

We are here to answer any and all questions

Best,
Teehe management

Cross-post from one of our forum threads:

"One of the biggest benefits that I didn’t see emphasized is that you wouldn’t need to work with payment processors like of you would if you were using fiat. In my experience with poker sites, not having to work through payment processors solves several big problems:

1) There is always a chance that player funds can be frozen while they are in transit. 2) Payment processing fees are one of the biggest expenses that gambling sites have to pay 3) Payment processors are a hassle and cause a long delays especially in the US. Since it’s such a hassle, players often end up leaving relatively large balances on the site instead of cashing out, because it’s such a pain to reload. This helps enable the site operators to misuse player funds to pay operational expenses.

By bypassing payment processors, you not only sidestep one of the enforcement mechanisms of UIGEA, but you avoid a major expense, and you make it much easier for customers to trust you because they only have to keep their money on deposit with you while they are actually gambling with it."

There’s a lot of skepticism on this thread and I get that, especially since the OP has chosen not to reveal his real-life identity. Bitcoin has been rife with scams. However, in this case I think his proposal has a lot of merit. First of all, OP has demonstrated his technical competence and is a well-respected poster in the Peercoin community. Given the nature of the business and the risks involved, his desire to stay anonymous is certainly understandable.  Secondly, I have read the Teehe prospectus and business plan and both appear to have a frank and carefully analyzed evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of their approach.

Most businesses fail, so I don’t know if this one will be successful or not. But it does sound like they have a very competent and experienced team and the idea of being able to bypass payment processors while offering wagers denominated in USD equivalents is something that seems like it has tremendous potential. AIUI, the peershares platform makes it possible to anonymously distribute dividends relatively easily. Everyone has to run these kinds of proposals through their own BS-detectors and come to their own conclusion, but IMO this one does not smell like a scam.



We appreciate the analysis and feedback, many are quick to come to conclusions without doing proper research.

Completion of the first week of the IPO:

Contributed funds stand at 11,042.30 PPC, 1500 NBT, and 62.99 BTC

Amount contributed at time of contribution $22,518

At current market prices approximately $22,150


is there any where that I could check this amount that you claimed? considering the fact I dont see anyone interested with your project in this forum

Ann: Professional artist joins Teehe team. Art and design professor with background in gambling.

Perfect combo.


Mind telling who are they? perhaps some profile or their proftfolio


There may not be a lot of interest or activity on this forum thread, however there is significant interest and discussion here: https://discuss.nubits.com/t/ipo-teehe-dao-sports-book-and-casino-based-on-peershares/1734

The answer to both of your questions lies in the anonymity of the network, we can not disclose this information, unless the individual has a pseudonym attached with their work.

Peershares allows the Teehe team to distribute equity and profits outside of the traditional corporate equity system (preferred and common stock, bonds, etc.). Teehe must maintain anonymity of shareholders including information that could be traced to these individuals like transactions on the blockchain. An elimination of anonymity is a point of failure for the organization if legislation were to negatively shift in either the cryptocurrency or gambling industry.

It is worth noting that Teehe is not an illegal business nor is an investment in Teehe, but due to shifting legislation, managers share similar foresight of Satoshi to stay anonymous. 

We are aware that start will be harder, but it will pay off in the future.

We invite you to learn more about our venture; the executive summary of business plan and FAQ are a good place to start http://teehe.net/pdf/teehe-faq.pdf

Quote from business plan:

" Teehe is a sports book and casino that facilitates transactions using a peer-to-peer (p2p) digital currency pegged to the U.S. Dollar. Teehe is structured as a distributed autonomous corporation; it will be owned by anonymous shareholders throughout the globe. This structure averts immense regulatory costs and enables total anonymity for all involved parties.Teehe utilizes the proven long-term profit model from pre-existing online sport books while solving the industries greatest problems of regulatory costs and value transfer restraints.

Finish something before you make a announcement of IPO, people are tired of paying for a idea instead of a project.

We considered phrasing the venture as crowdfunding, but in reality it is an IPO, we are straightforward even though negative connotations abound from previous failed ventures and scams under the name IPO.

The venture requires time and capital to achieve a final product, it cannot be built in spare time. We have acquired the necessary developers all of whom have agreed to be compensated in a dynamic mix of shares and a wage.   

Funding raised through traditional venture capital firms eliminate anonymity.

Furthermore, an elimination of anonymity is a point of failure for the organization if legislation were to negatively shift in either the cryptocurrency or gambling industry.

In this regard, Teehe management has the foresight to raise funds in an anonymous fashion through Peershares, to prevent third party intervention in the future.





this is what all IPO is about, an idea, before people put in their money to you, you will need to present at least a small fraction of your idea in reality, people wont fell for this one , this schemes has been here since a long time ago, mostly in altcoin sections, where people only pay for idea, after that, the thread starter gone

-this is what all IPO is about, an idea, before people put in their money to you, you will need to present at least a small fraction of your idea in reality,

> Our team is open for technical discussion, if you would like to know technical specifications please contact us on our listed bitmessage address.

-people wont fell for this one , this schemes has been here since a long time ago, mostly in altcoin sections, where people only pay for idea, after that, the thread starter gone

> I need not say that scams abound on this subforum, not to mention the potential insolvency of operating a business solely with Bitcoin. Sadly, one member of Teehe management team who frequents this forum fell for a Streak For The Cash scam. It is a sad reality, we are well aware. It is justified to be skeptical, it is warranted with the history of Bitcoin scams. We are happy to answer your questions and quell any concerns.

We have tried to do everything we can to be transparent, yet anonymous. Funds are held in multi-sig by trustworthy members of Peercoin community. You can see how well recieved Teehe is in the Peercoin community by following the thread here: https://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=3999.0

You can move this thread (using the link at the bottom of the page) to Marketplace --> Securities. You will get greater interest for your IPO there. You can open a fresh thread to discuss your business model alone and promote your idea.

Do you give any certificate or receipt for the investment we made in IPO ?

Your input will be recorded on the blockchain.
You are required to keep ownership of the Bitmessage address or the email you use to contact us as we will use that to contact you and deliver the shares once our blockchain starts.
Also, you must include return address which we will use to return your coins in case of IPO termination.

Please read our Prospectus, which should answer a lot of questions: http://teehe.net/pdf/teehe-prospectus.pdf

Two questions for the community:

Would you prefer gambling denominated in Bitcoin or rather using Bitcoin for all its benefits, and gambling with a denominated form of your local currency?

Would you prefer gambling with a random third party, or gambling with a distributed autonomous organization in which you have a stake in?

Our goal is to deliver a secure, user-friendly gambling platform using a nonvolatile digital currency; accommodating anonymous wagers with instantaneous deposits and withdraws fulfilling all gambling desires.

It is important to set things right in the beginning, to make a secure and future-proof platform. To ensure a long-lived operation, Teehe will avoid interacting with traditional institutions; all business processes needed to establish the platform will be anonymous. The platform will be designed and coded internally. It will use modern technologies with security and practicality as areas of focus.

To do this, we need your help. We will sell 20% of shares as IPO to acquire sufficient funding to develop this platform.
In case of IPO termination, like if we do not acquire enough we will simply return funds to investors; fair and square.

this is just wrong, if you cant even pay for your own site development , how are you going to pay your customer once your sites goes live? you wont have the needed bankroll for the sites i bet

Well there is nothing wrong about it. Please read at least some of documents before stating that.
We clearly state that this is just first round of funding, it will be followed by second after Beta quality platform is released. Second round will serve to acquire bankroll and become fully operational.

Development and testing of platform like Teehe requires staggering amount of work, money and human resources. Project like this can not be developed in underfunded garage; we dont want quality to suffer due to underfunding.
It is classic crowdfunding, where crowd becomes the owner in completely transparent process.

What is going to be different from the other sportbooks? Do you plan on using more cryptocurrencies?

It is very different from sports books that we have seen so far.
First of all, it owned by shareholders. Each shareholder has a wallet with his shares, shareholder can vote on motions to influence behaviour of company. Also, there is integrated dividend payout system.

You might want to read our documents to get a full picture, we do not want to throw too much on your plate at once.


Second; we eliminate volatility. We will internally use USD pegged crypto currency, so customers funds and company's profits are safe from Bitcoin volatility.
Also, read our documents to see more details, this is quite vague description I have delivered; I have tried to keep it simple.


Third; it is impossible to shut us down once it starts. There is no ties to any legal or financial institution. Teehe only answers to shareholders.

As for illegal offshore gambling houses, Teehe is not your classic off-shore gambling enterprise.
Teehe is structured to be resilient to attacks from legal entities by its ownership structure in form of DAO.
There is no way for government to seize funds or credit card company to block money transfers.
There is no way for any government or bank to influence Teehe, that is the design.

Read out documents @ Teehe.net you will find them quite interesting we are sure of that.

Also, there is active discussion over @ https://discuss.nubits.com/t/ipo-teehe-dao-sports-book-and-casino-based-on-peershares/1734
