Polish company first in the world to sell shares for Bitcoins 

A Polish company, InPay S.A., is the first in the world whose shares are available for purchase in public offering using the digital currency Bitcoin. The sale has just launched on the equity crowdfunding site Beesfund.com.

Equity crowdfunding is simply raising capital thanks to the online community. Unlike the reward-based crowdfunding, made popular by sites such as Kickstarter, Indiegogo or RocketHub, in equity crowdfunding people who are involved in financing the company receive personal shares.

Examples of sites which enable this type of capital acquisition include the American websites EquityNet and Fundable or the British Crowdcube. Thanks to these services companies have raised over 300 million dollars in total. But up till now none of the leading platforms had enabled the purchase of shares through Bitcoin.

This solution, in cooperation with InPay S.A., is proposed as a first by the Polish equity crowdfunding site Beesfund.com. Thanks to the Bitcoin payment integration system developed by InPay S.A., Beesfund is able to offer the purchase of equity from companies looking to raise capital.

InPay is the first such payment system in Central Europe. Up till now similar solutions on the continent had only been created in the UK, Sweden, Holland and Denmark. The most well-known, thanks to the investment of billionaire Richard Branson, is an American company BitPay, which also has ambitious plans of conquering the European market by opening their Amsterdam branch.
