So you just have a concept? What's your prototype, is it actually something scripted?
It's working, although not tested.
I think finding someone to work to free and finding funding are going to be the hard part - you're better off just waiting to raise the funding yourself if you can as therell likely be a trust problem on both sides.
What is your suggested order? I thought it should be this way:
team > followers > investors > clients
That being said the startup and initial testing will probably not be too expensive if you can get the coding done initially cheap.
Do you know of any boards focused at crypto startups, from the founder's perspective?
