About Us

Our Vision

We believe that all ideas are investable, no matter how commercially unviable or legally dubious they are. Investment should be readily available to everyone and should benefit all communities, except for those who say things we disagree with.

Serving our clients is always our priority, even to the detriment of the environment and the social cohesion of modern society. That’s how committed we are to excellence.

Our Mission

We see future that rewards the spirit of entrepreneurship. We’ve never turned down an investment from a confident, charismatic sales person with questionable ideas.

Sunk Capital in numbers

We didn’t get to become the largest and least profitable investment firm in history by accident. It was mostly tax evasion and bribes.

Our History

Sunk Capital has been investing in world-class ideas for over 30 years. From our humble origins outside of a Kyrgyz jail in 1994, to the world’s largest and least profitable investment firm.

Our investment fund currently stands at $83 trillion, considerably larger than any of our “competitors”. The size of our fund comes through Barry’s accidental purchase of $25,920 worth of bitcoin in June 2010.

Since then, our investments have spanned the globe, and made Barry Sunk the world’s richest man in the process, owning 99% of Sunk Capital shares. We’re not sure who owns the remaining 1%.

We’re excited to build a new world and bring the next generation of ideas to life for the benefit of predominantly white affluent neighbourhoods.

Founded outside a Kyrgyzstan jail

12July1995

4May2002

Acquires Dave's Battery Supplies

Sunk Capital's first acquisition was for local retailer Dave's Battery Supplies. In a deal worth almost nothing, the team of three, including the eponymous Dave himself, joined the Sunk Capital family.

19June2010

Bitcoin investment

Barry accidentally buys $25,920 worth of bitcoin, which is valued today at just over $83 trillion. This helps expand our investment fund from $25,920 to $83 trillion.

Growing fast

Following an almost complete lack of growth from 1994 to 2010, excluding what auditors have described as “catastrophic losses”, Sunk Capital has grown to become the largest investment fund on the planet.

This didn’t happen by accident. It’s entirely due to Barry’s keen sense of business, relentless drive for innovation and the compounding growth in the value of bitcoin.
