For those who don't know. Freigeist is a VC fund run by Frank Thelen. He is well known from the TV Show "Die Hölle der Löwen" (Dragon's Den, similar to Shark Tank).

Here is the TL;DR; version of the post: * Open Startup investments to everyone, not just accredited or high net worth investors.

* Make real world private equity fully liquid by tokenizing it.

* Create a decentralized and global capital pool and investor network.

* Onboard off-chain companies into the crypto economy.

* Provide a fully legal and regulated setting for token investment.

* Massively simplify shareholder management through smart contracts

Find it amazing that people send their money to smart contracts that not even reveal their source code like it is stated for Genaro or Coinlancer.

Indeed this seems to be the question. I think the ECU (precursor of the Euro) was a defined as a "unit of account" as well. Wonder which definition applies in this case.

For very simple tasks Listly seems to be a fast and good solution: http://www.listly.io/

If you need more power, I heard good stuff about http://80legs.com/ though never tried them myself.

If you really need to do crazy shit like crawling the iOS App Store really fast and keep thing up to date. I suggest using Amazon Lambda and a custom Python parser. Though Lambda is not meant for this kind of things it works really well and is super scalable at a reasonable price.

I didn't say that their audience is not outside of the USA. Feel free to re-read what I wrote.

Think about it like that. BMW sells most of their cars outside of Germany but still is a German company that operates world wide. And this is very true for most big companies today.

I guess the idea is that each country or region has its own Google, Facebook or Amazon - Not that it all belongs to the US government.

I would also argue that they are US companies first and global companies second. Their main focus is always USA and their spirit is also very American for the good and the bad. Strategy for the rest of the world is made in the USA. All important decision are made in the USA. Most investments are made in the USA and also the profits go to the USA.

This is nor good or bad but the point is that those are not global companies.

Noooo, whats next? The real player?

thanks! i didnt realize this!.
