I've just come across the Octopus Collective and signed up to possibly invest in a future project. Anyone had experience?

    This is a bit like the Ripple thing by the look of it. I’ve been debating about that for a while too.

    Yes, I'm in Ripple already. Ripple is a 40 year investment, Octopus is only three years. Ripple will be passed on to my children, with Octopus I might just, with a bit of luck, see it through.

    Would be interesting to hear how investors are faring so far.
