    Look's a very interesting project in terms of social media, and for a limited time, when you join you gain shares in the actual company, worth an absolute fortune if it kicks off.

    Would really appreciate if you guys could help me out by joining through my referral:

    Sounds like a share based pyramid scheme.

    Taken from their website:

    What is the value of a vShare?

    Currently, vShares are priced at £1.00. Zurker will be incorporated as a company when 1,000,000 vShares have been allocated. At that juncture, the value of a vShare should be about ten times as much, as successful startups with more than 500,000 users can easily gain a valuation of $5+ million.
    If Zurker were to continue to grow and attain a valuation of $50 billion like Facebook, each vShare would be worth $50,000. Of course, it's unwise to assume that Zurker will attain the same level of valuation as the current market leader.

    Bebo was sold to AOL for a more down-to-earth $800 million. At that level of valuation, each vShare would be worth $800. MySpace was sold to News Corporation for $580 million - about $580 per vShare.

    The above estimates are based on capital gains. If Zurker were never to sell out - and a user base of owner-investors would probably oppose selling out to a large corporation - the value of vShares would be determined by the earnings of the company and the dividends paid quarterly. If Zurker earns a net profit of $100 million, then each vShare would entitle the owner to a pretax income of $100. If you own 10 vShares now, that would translate to an income of $1,000 per quarter.
