The Insider: Pierre-Camille Hamana on Hospitable and $HOST

PC - Can you shed some light on the path to the 5X growth in valuation that is targeted for next Spring? Are there any comparatives to the $126M and $365M (at a reported $900M+ valuation) that Hostaway raised and how they may have been pacing on revenue and customers comparatively?

Once one owns $HOST, what can one do with the shares/coins? Hold them until Hospitable goes public? Or  is the plan for Hospitable to always be community owned? Then can shares/coins be bought and sold within community?

Welcome to today’s The Insider! 💜

We’re joined by ​@PC Hamana, founder and CEO of Hospitable. Pierre-Camille started Hospitable in 2016 to automate guest messaging for his own rental, and since then has grown it into a platform used by thousands of hosts around the world.

For the next hour, PC will be here to answer your questions about Hospitable, the future of hosting, and $HOST token.

You can follow along, react to his answers, and add your own questions as we go.

Let’s get started!

PC - could you expand on the path to equity?  You touched on it during the Sept Townhall, but I didn’t fully understand the process and the potential options.  Thanks

Good evening everybody! Joining now, keep the questions coming about anything Hospitable :) 

Hey ​@Ryan Moyer, it is not live streaming event, it is a Q&A format where ​@PC Hamana blocked his time to come here and answer your questions (we are testing this kind of a format). So go ahead and ask whatever you are curious about.  

seeing it now

I read that an investment of $5,000 or over opens VIP access- what exactly does that include?

.

Keep em coming! 

Thank you PC for the reply. 
 

Once invested will investor receive payouts on growth, dividends, or any such thing? 
 

Got it. I did hear you discuss on this in another video. Thanks again. 

Hi PC! First, what is your unfair advantage or put another way what is your superpower? (Personally and in terms of Hospitable as a company)

Second, in a recent townhall meeting you mentioned that you want Hospitable to be community owned and that the current allocation to community ownership isn’t high enough. If I’m reading it correctly, the investor page says it’s currently at 9% - what % would you like the community investment to get to in the next year or two?

AND in the event of a liquidity event occurring, which shareholders would “sacrifice” part of their equity % to cover the equity distribution to the $HOST token holders? Or would all current shareholders share in a “pro rata” reduction in their equity %?

A big thank-you to ​@PC Hamana for joining us today, and thanks to all of you who asked questions and took part in the conversation. 💜

This Insider thread will remain open until tomorrow at 12 PM ET, so feel free to add any follow-up thoughts or questions before it closes.
