It’s at zero interest in Bitcoin terms.&#xA;&#xA;The conversion sits at 5% above the equity price from the lenders point of view, and can be triggered once 50% above from the companies point of view and only after 6 months for this latter option.&#xA;&#xA;Basically, the binary way to look at it is as to whether it converts or not - if it does, the company gets an extra atm at around 200p. If not, the loan just gets paid back with minimal loss in Bitcoin terms.&#xA;&#xA;Why would the lender convert? If the shares have performed better than btc.&#xA;&#xA;Why would the company convert? As long as the effective purchase of bitcoin at the conversion price is accretive to shareholders.&#xA;&#xA;Strikes me there are some edge cases where the lender could lose in btc terms but they are marginal - eg equity goes up 55%, but btc goes up by even more - lender ends up with the shares and not the btc?&#xA;&#xA;Be interesting to see if there are further of these and on slightly better terms for the company - ie ends up being a more accretive atm if converted.&#xA;&#xA;#swc&#xA;#btc</html></oembed>
