We believe in social capitalism, in community ownership.” It’s an interesting hypothetical considering that gig economy companies are [consistently]( under pressure to do more for those that drive their ecosystem. Fairmint’s solution lets makers “launch in minutes” — smack an “Invest” button on your site and start raising from biggest fans whether that’s VCs, employees, or users. That’s a much quicker route to the capital that makers need to improve their products than traditional fundraising. Makers in the Product Hunt community are taking notice. Transactions are also programmable; i.e. equity is coded into smart contracts on the blockchain. Fairmint says this removes the gatekeepers and decentralizes investment. Is this the kind of real-life application Web3 critics are looking for? Start-ups have raised over $20M from their communities so far on Fairmint – would you consider opening up equity to your community?
