Just submitted our product idea: Bonnum Wallet, a crypto walled designed for financial inclusion. If we win the prize, we are going to donate 100% of it as Aid for poor families in Venezuela. And we will post a link to the seedproof site in our site.
Hey PH...
We are launching this because we think that a lot of makers are building cool products because they enjoy it - not because they want to raise a bunch of venture capital. For people making products on the side, a small amount of cash is awesome.
On the other hand, a lot of people with Silicon Valley aspirations don't have the resources or network to get there very easily. A small amount of money can be life-changing.
I hope in some way this simple program will inspire makers everywhere - regardless of background, connections, or resources.
🙏 Thanks for checking it out!!
@amrith I've also been talking to some companies about other non-cash things we can add to this to make it better. Hope that can come in the next week or two!
really cool idea overall, but also really feel like you guys need to hire a designer/UX person to help out with the site.
also, as far as long-term plans go, I was curious on how y'all plan to keep this program going? Is that mostly reliant on partner contributions?
@_ryebell hope to keep it going indefinitely. somewhat depends on contributions but also on how well everyone likes it. The goal is to add more tools and resources to go along with the cash.
