hi
after alot of thought and consideration i am offering unquoted shares in new business the shares will consist of

40 shares at 0.5btc = 0.5% ownership and
29 shares at 1btc = 1% ownership

totalling 49% ownership


Are you incorporated? If not, how are we going to receive a share that is of value to us? A share in a COMPANY is value to us because we own it legally.

However, if you are just a sole trader, who isn't going to list or incorporate whatsoever then these 'shares' are of no value. In fact it wouldn't even really be a contract so I'm not sure how someone could take legal recourse if necessary.

New to business? One of the most important things to read: Main types of business entity's
