Crowdfunding 3.0

Concept: A collaborative funding system based on blockchain, similar to Kickstarter, that allows people to contribute to short-midlong-term projects, emerging companies, a nobel cause or innovative products through Web3. Investors can acquire NFTs that act as pre-sales of the product, shares in the company, or simply as a receipt acknowledging their contribution or ownership of a part of the company.

Functionality: Users can create fundraising campaigns in which others can participate by purchasing NFTs. These NFTs offer different benefits:

Product pre-sale: Buyers receive the product when it’s ready, depending on their contribution level.

Recognition as a collaborator: NFTs that don’t grant products but serve as digital receipts, acknowledging users as sponsors of the project.

Company ownership: NFTs that grant investors a small share of the company, managed and tracked on the blockchain.

Special tokens: NFTs can include access to future products, limited editions, or rewards for early participation in project funding.

Value: Facilitates the funding of projects or startups through a decentralized and transparent platform in Web3. Investors gain a more personal and interactive experience, with the chance to be part of a company’s development or receive rewards in the form of products or ownership.


Engagement: Users not only invest but also track the progress of the companies or products they’re funding. Additionally, NFTs act as digital badges and allow investors to follow their value in the secondary market. The community remains motivated as their participation is recorded on the blockchain and can generate long-term benefits.

    Sounds like a perfect tool for creators, hopefully it attracts only serious creators and not cash grabbers. Perhaps there is a need to make sure investors are prioritized in case of scams and failures. Needs some brainstorming for those extra features imho.

    This would be interesting, albeit funds would be hard to reimburse it projects don’t reach their goal.
