I think we need to demonstrate a healthy demand, to stimulate the supply.
Well, give me a decent investment with a decent company and we talk.
And not for amounts that are in the lunch money area. 1000+ BTC usalble funds in a market with enough liquitkiy (50x1000 BTC turnover daily) and we can talk
Sadly, LIF is not giving any registration info on the website ;(
You expect far too much far too soon.
For now we should reward the small scale businesses that demonstrate professionalism, realism and honesty, while providing frequent, quality communication with shareholders and meeting the deadlines for dividends etc... that they agreed to.
From these we can build to the higher value investments you seek.
Two problems with that.
* a 1000 BTC investment IS a small business. It is TINY for anythign requiring capital. Every small shop needs a lot more than this as capital.
* the list of companies is small. if you take out those not being professional, realistic and honest then pretty much only one is left, or?
* How many of the businesses are legal businesses? Just to check the "honest" part
We need to get something onto GLBSE that has enough size to be real. Dont get me wrong, but if you pay me 500% of my investment per month but the maximum investment is 100 USD then the deal can be as real as you want, it wont be worth looking at it.
I hope someone would get up with something more sizeable. Looks like this is no the case at the moment. Unless this happens, I see a real problem.
