Hey fellow members ,
i'm currently master's student in general management and have an idea for a startup in blockchain industry . i have the management and marketing skills required ,but still lack some developers to be a part of the team . i don't have the budget to hire someone to do the technical stuff . i need people to be part of the team in exchange for shares . where can i find those people ?!

It's even hard to blockchain developers and how are you looking for free ones? The only deal I can see here is to have friends who share your idea and are happy to work on it to unleash their skills/potential.
Doesn't your university offer investment of valuable startups? This way they can hire people for you, otherwise I highly doubt anyone will work for you for free.

unfortunately, my university doesn't offer that ! i'm looking for people to work with me not for me ! they will have the same privilege i'll have

you have too look for people that are:

1. financially indepdentent or secured, (like westerners)

2. are angry about something (like banking cartels)

3. are bored play video games and want to do something

thats how satoshi found his free developer team

regards

no need to be sarcastic , the developers will be co-founds and i'll handle management and marketing for free too !
it's just everyone will do his part without money at first until we make the project running then we all split the profits
win-win situation

You should look for someone with a young experience an trying to build his portfolio as he may accept to work for free with you. Other than that I don't think you will find someone unless it's someone kind enough to help you out for free. (which is very rare on the internet)

i wasnt sarcastic i explained you how satoshi got his bitcoin billion usd for free

You need to first articulate your vision and write a super fantabulous Whitepaper. If that document can emotionally sway the reader; then you have some basis with which to approach prospective devs. You will need additional sweeteners like token offers and equity, but 50 percent of zero is still zero, so your project must have wings right from the very outset.

It's easy for you to determine whether that's true.  Create your pitch presentation, stand in front of the mirror, and imagine the person in the mirror is pitching to you, and you are the dev. Will you accept? This way you will be able to edit your pitch to a better level of acceptability. You will need to be ruthlessly honest for this to succeed.

Of course, when you feel it's good, you can directly pitch a few devs, together with your visionary whitepaper. Thereafter, it's up to the merits of your project; but this way you can have the best shot.

You will find the devs where they usually hang out in droves, on Linkedin. One profile will lead you to another, and in a short while you'll have your hands full.
