The Facts

I'm sharing these facts (without my commentary) so people here in Minds know more about Patrick Byrne, Medici Ventures, Overstock.com, and George Soros.

For our Series A funding, we have chosen to partner with Medici Ventures and Patrick Byrne, a web and cryptocurrency pioneer, and the CEO of Overstock.com. Patrick will also join the Minds Board of Directors.

Medici Ventures is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Overstock.com launched in 2014. Our goal is to change the world by advancing blockchain technology.

Soros Fund Management held 2,472,188 shares in Overstock at the end of the fourth quarter of 2017, making it the third-largest shareholder, according to regulatory filings released late Wednesday.

Now you have a more complete picture.
