Title: Bitshares on Shark Tank
Post by: scalfee on August 25, 2015, 01:17:02 am
What about a world premiere of Bitshares through Shark Tank.  The panel is made up of technology moguls, including cyber security, and these billionaires would love to take on the banking industry.  It is a no brainer.  We could vote on the offers live and show off the explosive power of the Bitshares technology and community.  At a minimum, the word will be out that Bitshares is coming to a digital wallet near you.

Shark tank is garbage... Unless you can figure out a way to give the producers of the show 10% of bitshares, then it is a non starter.  That show appeals to the lowest common denominator, and is an attempt to take advantage of every person brought on.

I agree with both of you. It's crap and you'd have to give them their cut, but man, what exposure that would be!

Each pitch actually takes about 90 minutes, the very editted version of the pitch is what you see. Keep that in mind when you say they are being taken advantage of  by seemingly being put on the spot to make a big decision.

If this were to happen, I wouldn't hope on getting them to join, however, it's the exposure that counts. The simple fact you get to the show and explain your business already helps a lot, even if you don't make a deal.

Sharks can fund CNX and have profit sharing between the customers and cnx. BitShares will get the upgrades if they're approved by the shareholders...
