1  Bitcoin / Project Development / CoinFunder.com - Bitcoin Crowdfunding for Bitcoin on: March 25, 2013, 06:47:16 PM
The CoinFunder Team is proud to announce the launch of the initial version of CoinFunder.com.

CoinFunder.com allows 2 types of crowdfunding initiatives:
-Projects - A user can post a project and solicit Bitcoins from the community for their idea.  If the idea is fully funded, bitcoins are transfered to the project owner
-Bounties - A user can post a request for a bounty, and fund it.  Other people within the community can contribute to the bounty.  Once a bounty is funded, other people within the community can post solutions for that bounty.  If there solution is approved by the project owner, they can choose to award the solution contributor the bounty.

Our Fees:
CoinFunder charges a 5% fee on all initiatives.

In order to start a project, post a bounty, fund an initiative, or post a solution you must be a member of CoinFunder.com.

This is our initial launch, we know that there will be many additional features and requirements that will need to be supported.  We would like to use this thread to solicit feedback.

Best Regards,
The CoinFunder Team

Update 4/10:
What makes CoinFunder different from other CrowdFunding platforms?
1) CoinFunder allows you to post projects / fund projects based on your currency (BTC amount floats as exchange rates change / we support 19 currencies)
-This feature is especially important given the volatility of the BTC market if you are trying to fund projects in a local currency
-Of course, you can choose project owners and funders can choose to pledge in BTC, in which case the amount does not fluctuate
2) Flexibility - CoinFunder allows you to pick between 2 Campaign Types:
-Escrow - A funder is not counted toward your project's goal until the pledge is paid.  Any funds that are pledged are held in escrow until the project reaches it's funding goal.
-Pledge - A funder is counted toward your project's goal immediately once they pledge.  Funds are not requested until the project reaches it's funding goal - they go directly to the Project Owner.
