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.
