the20year: It would be moved to an exchange at some short point in teh future
the20year: You'll loose BTC if you invest and the value of BTC increases relative to USD
the20year: If said value goes down, you'll do quite well, at any rate you'll make interest in USD

Duffer1: i hear you man, i like what you're doing as a startup
benkay: it's not a startup yo it's an REIT.
Duffer1: but btc swings 6% a day easy
Duffer1: ah right, wrong word
the20year: And hopefully the swings would average out
the20year: But, that's a risk, the alternative is holding on to bitcoins hopefully appreciating in value over time

pankkake: but you wouldn't invest all your fortune in bitcoin - this seems like a nice fiat investment
pankkake: not a get rich quick one, so again, I wonder where you're going to get btc people to invest :p
Duffer1: my fiat is in bitcoin
Duffer1: well was :P
the20year: Ukto and graet got $250k-$350k worth of bitcoins on their 12% loans
the20year: and anyone that paid attention realized they were cashing out to USD, and could never repay the BTC value
pankkake: no arguing about that. that was stupid
mircea_popescu: the20year you're not ukto and certainly not graet.
the20year: So, my question is whether or not I can attract people wanting a reasonable APY on a pretty secure, transparent invesment
mircea_popescu: in people can get financed for any stupidity they wish to do. out people can not, no matter anything.
mircea_popescu: the practical solutions are either to be upset or to strive to in yourself.
pankkake: "reasonable APY on a pretty secure, transparent invesment" => well, many people want that. but they are not bitcoiners :p
mircea_popescu: either can take a lifetime easily, either may just as well not deliver in the end.
the20year: Yeah, that's my concern pankkake
pankkake: so, why would people use bitcoins, and not fiat directly?
the20year: Bitcoin marketplace is so hot and easy to access, fiat is much more difficult for me
the20year: My cost to IPO via bitfunder and get ~$100k of investment was $500
the20year: To take any investment in person from investors the traditiional way, i'd of spent $20k
mircea_popescu: mkay, good enough.
pankkake: i agree
pankkake: though you now have the "unregistered security" added risk
the20year: Even now , if I wanted to be mr legal eagle, I Could use said investment funds to pay for a PPM and get those same fiat investors, and my personal contribution to the whole ordeal is $500
the20year: Not exactly, part of our seed money was to hire a lawyer that knew what he was doing. Sure, we're on slightly risky legal ground, but he already has placed some options available should the SEC call us
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 7300 @ 0.00092376 = 6.7434 BTC [+]
pankkake: I guess it also allows someone with mainly non-USD fiat to easily invest, too
the20year: Correct, and i'd venture to say before the BF troubles, 95%+ of our investors were outside the US , in risky countries that have a hard time investing

mircea_popescu: "Hereby you are informed that you are due in the court of Houston on the 14 of January, 2014 at 10:00 am for the hearing of your case."
Duffer1: sounds like an accurate "come visit Houston" commercial
Duffer1: that's advertising, not spam
mircea_popescu: right, except it attaches the same dumbass windows-only zip file that's been hitting all the honeypots this past coupla months
mircea_popescu: some kid with a coupla grand decided he's gonna get himself rich online
mircea_popescu: with nothing but faith and this here old pair of underwear.
Duffer1: that's travel itinerary
truffles: everyone with charm should have a crack at fiat :d
