Quote from: dance4life on June 21, 2012, 07:13 amThis isn't a savings account.This is essentially a derivative of a HIGH RISK BOND that could never pay out again.A savings account would guarantee me my money + interest at the end of a certain period. This does none of that.No offense against you, but I hope you know this as well. You are essentially making your own ponzi scheme.I don't want to criticise newer vendors as I'm one myself(!) but my modest experience in Hedge Funds, which provide some of the most lucrative investment opportunities leads me to believe that despite the fact that FroggwithADD may be selling bonds in good faith, said bonds are part of a teetering pyramid.The Bitcoin itself as an investment opportunity has looked promising in the past two months and has indeed risen by around 5% in value in the past three weeks if we're going by Intersango but part of risk management (my day job) is to inspect overall trends and at the moment my humble opinion is that the coin is simply too volatile to guarantee the kind of returns being promised - of course this doesn't mean you can't make money from arbitrage, investing in mining pools and so on!The investment opportunity I offered when I first joined was 5% every 30 days which is highly irregular but I hoped to achieve it by simply passing off SR users money as my own and investing it in the same schemes as high net worth individuals funds at my bank - this is quite a common practice for Hedge Fund Managers as they then have a vested interest in making sure their client's portfolio becomes more lucrative. Having said that I would only be able to achieve this level of return with the help of a colleague who has decades of experience in the industry - the idea that this can be done sustainably for 5% per week stretches credibility.Nevertheless I have dealt with my share of naysayers in my time and am willing to be amazed. As such FrogwithADD I'd be happy to invest a nominal amount (say five Bitcoins) in your scheme and if it comes to fruition, no one will be happier than I! V.
