NOTICE - DO NOT TRUST THESE GUYS. What happened to my ICO Money??? Where is your token? You guys literally took my money, and swept it all under the rug as if it never happened. No way I'm putting my money with you again.

@aleksfabric - Hey Alex, sorry to hear that you think we took your money. None of which is true. Not sure how you participated in the ICO, but we have listed our token on https://kyberswap.com/swap/eth-bam - where it's currently traded. If you have participated in the ICO you should have received monthly updates through the email you used to participate in the ICO. We'd be more than happy to assist you in making sure you can trade your BAM as you see fit. just reach out to me at linus@getbamboo.io and we'll have you sorted. Sorry that you feel the way you do, I'm really looking forward to make sure we sort this out for you.

Hi Hunters! Some details about the product for all the curious builders out there 🤓. We are 100% Serverless, built from the ground up on AWS and integrated through AWS Amplify to a React Native front-end. That's just a fancy way of saying we couldn't afford expensive servers! All of our design assets are custom made - Linus hand sketches them while sipping on martinis in a dimly lit bar in Barcelona. That's how designers work right!? We feel that they give a lovely human touch to your investment journey in what is usually a very sterile environment. The Proof of Solvency work is pretty complicated. While it has its fair share of moon maths, it’s built on top of the ground-work that people smarter than us have laid. We’re happy to talk more about it if you’re interested in homomorphic encryption, zero-knowledge proofs and all those cool stuff. Isn’t that how you like to spend your Friday evenings too!? Any more questions let me know and I’ll be happy to chat!

Great app, so user friendly! Love the portfolio selection, so you can actually invest a single 1% in some assets. Is that more expensive?

@ciara_padden - No it's not actually, we don't charge any spreads on the assets, and because all assets are digital there is very little cost in moving them around, compared to old banks. Let's just put it this way, our biggest friction point now, is all interactions with the old bank system, this is where most fees end up happening, and where most problems are. And because you can own fractions, investing in fixed units becomes less important, and percentage allocation becomes more viable.

Hi Everyone! Linus here from Bamboo. So excited to be here. We’ve built Bamboo with the goal of making it easier for people to get started with alternative investments (think precious metals, cryptocurrencies, art, even sneakers!). There are four assets currently supported on the platform: Gold, Silver, Bitcoin and Ethereum. New investors can choose from preset portfolios (e.g., 50/50 Bitcoin/Gold) or build a custom one, allocating as little as 1% of their investment to an asset. Pretty neat if you ask me. Investments take the form of top-ups (self-explanatory) or acorn-style round-ups (these come from collecting the spare change from your daily transactions). And we are currently in the process of building recurring investments and they will be arriving soon! Once you’re all set up, Bamboo will handle purchasing the assets in the proportions you’ve selected. We’re able to buy small fractions of each assets (even as little as a milligram of gold), making it a relatively low-risk way for people to be introduced to investing. Giving your money to a third party service requires a lot of trust, and we believe the best way to build trust is through being transparent. We have spent a lot of time adding features that provide our customers with more information about their investments. People LOVE knowing exactly what they have invested in so with every contribution comes a full receipt outlining: - The price each asset was purchased at - The amount of each asset we purchased for you - The flat transaction fee we took - No Spreads! Spread-less! What other cool things have we been up to, oh yes, this is a game changer. Proof of Solvency: We have spent the last year researching and implementing a protocol that enables our customers to trustlessly audit their funds. This means customers can independently verify that their funds are properly managed and accounted for, and that we are fully solvent. We believe that we are the first investment platform in the world to have this feature included. Thanks for reading all of that! Happy to hear any feedback or respond to any questions you might have about Bamboo!

@david_okuniev1 - Thank you David, means a lot coming from you. I would not be here if it was not for the opportunity you gave me at Typeform. So happy our paths crossed there. I'm looking forward to have it functional over here in Europe.

Awesome app! I’ve never owned gold or cryptocurrency before and this app makes purchasing them easy. Love that you can link it to your bank account and do roundups to help you save and invest at the same time.
