Topic: The Geyser.fund team is here 🌊 (Read 180 times)

We use https://deezy.io/ to swap onchain onto lightning and send all funds over to a lightning address.

I've known this platform for a couple of months already ^{[thanks to "Sats Café"]} and I'm really impressed with how everything works on it, but I wanted to know more about the following third-party service provider ^{[e.g. their name and the data they have access to]}?

  Geyser will be taking fees from processing on-chain transactions to projects using lightning addresses. We will be doing that in the process of transfering on-chain funds to lightning funds using a third party service provider.

We are going to release a fix very soon which will allow Tor users to access Geyser. For now you can try refreshing the bridges and it might work, a few of the Tor Nodes are blacklisted by our cloud provider.

hello magicmicks, i was reading about your project and is an awesome project, so, first of all let me say congrats for your business, and i hope it grows fast.

You need to be careful with the content, you need some kind of moderation, because to have a picture of a burned child on the site isn't nice, some sensitive people will close the page after see that pic, and I'm talking about the "Save Gaza and donate for children" project.

What i like about your project is how it breaks all frontiers, doesn't matter where we are, the contributors and projects are global, so, a big +1 for that.

Can you allow access for Tor browsers? I get this:

Where do you get money for a crowdfunding platform? What is the mechanism for selecting projects and the project license required? Will it be open source and available for commercial activities, or will the final project be closed source?
Include more details, such as financing conditions, payment deadline, will partnerships be established and shares distributed or will they be tokens, and will project managers receive Bitcoin?

Add a link with more F.A.Q will be better.

Great to hear that Geyser made it's way to Bitcoin Forum!

I'd love your opinion on whether we should be more present here. Also, do you think there are anonymous bitcoiners who would be interested in contributing to our Geyser Grants? geyser.fund/grants

Not a shitcoin platform, we are bitcoin-only. By LN, I mean the Lightning Network, as I'm sure you know.

magicmicks, or @metamick14 (also my Twitter profile).

Geyser is a bitcoin crowdfunding platform for creators who want to monetize for their projects ideas. We make it super easy for creators to get started and for contributors to fundraise their projects. So far we have helped creators raise over 26 BTC in just over a year, have over 900 projects on our platform, and route around 1-2BTC every month. In short, we are powering the bitcoin creator economy. We are seeing 3 main areas of activity: Educators, Creatives/Culture, Communities. Educators are doing great work in spreading bitcoin adoption in different ways from teaching courses to orange-pilling, Culture/creatives write books, make movies, sell art and make music around bitcoin, and Communities make meetups and events happen. 

On top of running the platform for creator crowdfunding, we run Geyser Grants, where we do bitcoin givaways to projects that are doing valuable initiatives in fostering Bitcoin Education, Culture, Community: https://geyser.fund/grants. It's only thanks to anonymous Bitcoiners that we can make the Geyser Grants happen, and so far we have raised over 3BTC in Grants. Would love to know if any of you would be interested in supporting our Grants, and to foster what area of Bitcoin.

Happy to answer any questions!

I was never publicly active in 2017, just learning

Looks like your platform is already running and has some projects already. I tried to see the contributors list on some projects and some of them have no name. Are they anonymous or is that a bug? It looks a bit weird when you have a list of named users and then a blank one with some random profile picture.

Why not make an ANN thread on the Service discussion board if you want to attract new users or looking for feedback? Not many people visit this board afaik, so you'll get less exposure here.

Geyser.fund is an dope platform. I know CryptoCloaks used it to fundraise money for their Big MF Printer. 👌

If you joined the forum in 2017, I'm curious why you're using a brand new account now? Would you mind sharing your previous username with us?

I'm waiting to read about your project, won't go searching for it, because you posted here, you should at least give us 10 lines of introduction. We are not interested to know the name of your project, first tell us about it, when we show interest to know more, you'd reveal the name.  I just hope it's not related to LN/ICO. Because then I'd need to update myself with new ICO tactics.

Ps, back in 2017, what was your username?

Hey guys,

I joined Bitcoin Forum in 2017, and it helped me come to grips with Bitcoin.

And today, I am joining the Forum again as the co-founder of Geyser, a bitcoin/LN crowdfunding platform.

I want to share it with the community, get your feedback and learn with you all.

Best,
Metamick
