Betarigs is for sale!

Hello!

It is almost the first anniversary of Betarigs! And during this year, we did incredibly well (IMO) : 172 000 rentals have been done through Betarigs with 15 000 registered users! With 12 000 tickets received and answered, our users were in general satisfied, with an average 9.78/10 rating given to the rentals! Grin

And so now, due to personal reasons and priorities of team members, we have decided to sell Betarigs in order to focus on our next projects.
We would like to sell it to an entity with a proven track record of being able to manage cryptocurrency services, and ideally with some technical expertise. A big pool operator would be welcome.
Here are some numbers we will disclose:

Raw income of the last months:
October : 13.8 BTC
November : 8.5 BTC
December : 20.5 BTC
January (up to 24/1) : 5.1 BTC (expecting ~8 BTC)
Server costs (5 servers + Cloudflare + tickets system + Google Apps) : a little less than 1000/month (we use high end servers)
So you will of course have to subtract the server costs from the raw income to get the actual earnings.

Tickets : On average 14 per day on the last month.
Tickets needs to be processed every single day to process rental problems and refunds.

The sale would happen as follow:
- A invoice in euros will be sent.
- Payment to be done via either bank wire (preferably) or in Bitcoins
- The buyer is given access to the ticketing system, the admin area of Betarigs, and the existing hot wallet. We still stay admin on the website, but won't be active anymore : all tickets are to be processed by the buyer.
- The server infrastructure and setup is not to be changed for 3 months (up to end of April) and the server costs are to be paid to us (a little less than 1000/month). The Betarigs code itself is also not to be changed for 3 months.
- In May 2015, we transfer the ownership to you. We transfer the service to other servers in your control (or we transfer you our account at the hosting provider), use another hot wallet in your control. You will then be fully in control.
- Later on, there -could- be a possibility to contract me to do some small changes to the system

Offers are to be sent to mux@betarigs.com. We will not review any offers made directly on this post, or via PM. An acceptable offer could be accepted right away. Finally, I may take some time to answer mails, but I will answer all mails.
