I've started a variety of projects in the past, and recently I have been experimenting with a few crypto related ones. What I have found is that you don't really need any initial investment, and that growth is based on the efforts of the founders, and the early members and associates that they are able to attract.
What are you considering doing with any of the funds invested in your project(s).
What's your last arguably 'successful' project you've started with $0?
What's the point of investing in a startup if people can build successful stuff without the need of investments?
