Coming down to our country, are there huge investors who act as "sharks" that new ideas can be pitched to? The tv shows we see more often in Nigeria are talent shows, while there are millions of individuals without ideas worth banking on.
The lions den is one that's active here in Nigeria with investors like Dan ngerem, Bolaji Balogun and other investors that interviews entrepreneurs and start up allowing them pitch Thier business ideas and depending on how good the idea is, the Investor decides to invest in the idea while taking a certain percentage in the form of equity.
The main issue I have with this kind of show is that most investors might end up stealing your idea and leaving you behind if you give them too much detail about the business. Some take it as an avenue to get initiative from and not necessarily an SME promotion promotion.
Regarding pitching a crypto startup, most of the investors that are part of the lions are always after investment that have smaller risk and so, it's going to be hard for them to consider a crypto related investment except the person that's buying into that idea is one that's a crypto enthusiast.
