We are amidst the next great Crypto Boom. And DNotes is now at 20 satoshis and falling.
From Paul Graham's Twitter a few days ago...
"The reason most founders are surprised by the difficulty of fundraising is that they're learning something about themselves, not something about fundraising. They know fundraising is hard for startups that don't seem appealing to investors. They just didn't realize they had one."I've always appreciated the DNotes project. But as it currently stands, there seems to be zero sense of urgency. This project has lost 98% of it's value. And there is little revenue to support funding.
How is the team going to position itself to benefit from this next boom cycle? HERo is a nice idea, but I have been on the Board of a rapidly growing non-profit called MakerGirl, for years. I can tell you that even the most well-marketed, well-meaning projects in the female empowerment space....are still incredibly hard to grow in terms of revenue. Let alone projects which are couched themselves in niches like blockchain.
What else do we got, besides HERo? Any technology or blockchain innovations coming down the line (moving to PoS was always a great North Star for the community to point to)? What other markets and use cases is DNotes approaching?
Alan is wrapping up some business and once we launch the new membership platform, our focus will be entirely on HERo as the first stage of the effort to increase revenue and prove the model for investors. Yes, fundraising is hard and the key investor push-back of revenue was anticipated, though we were hopeful to find the right investors that could see the potential.
The new membership platform is several months in the making and we have been working very hard to not only develop but also working towards building up a team and potential partnerships. It is much more broad in target and groups such as the one you are on the board of will be able to benefit from the platform. The success of the groups based on our research have been dependent upon their ability to branch out and organize locally. That is one of the ways in which HERo will be helpful to these groups, providing them with a platform that makes it easy to collaborate, find people and organize, start local chapters, etc...
This screenshot will help get a better understanding, but effectively HERo is meant to help in your career, business endeavours, personal growth, technological growth, etc...
We are currently wrapping up development and moving into the testing phase.
