- DAOLaunch — DAOLaunch is a decentralized platform that connects investors and startups directly on the blockchain by introducing innovative fundraising solutions to the startup ecosystem. Users can effortlessly create and support new startups across all borders, and participate in transparent, flexible and fair financing round regardless of being a crypto ornon-crypto startup.The problemThe startup investment industry is largely lead by Venture capitalists and institutional investors, they can leverage their capital, using network and connections as well as their brand, able to negotiate better investment conditions to make substantial ROI. The majority of those deals are conducted in a closed and private environment.Retail investors don't typically have access to these kinds of deals. For example, if you invested in Coinbase seed round, there would have been 5000X ROI. By the time of listing, VC's have already made a substantial investment and token unlock schedules, often deter smaller investors. Most recently, retail Investors are more attracted to democratic funding method, some Startups have considered the "Fairlaunch" funding method for that reason. However, Fair Launch is not a practical method to release a token, let alone fund a business. It's unreasonable to expect adoption from mass-retail investors and for them to provide not only funding, but also connections and marketing, a core part of what VCs provide today, which is often worth just as much as capital to a project. Now, democratic and practical startup investment approach is demanded, to bring more competitiveness and innovation to startup industry.How will DAOLaunch solve this problem?Our solution at DAOLaunch is to offer an open and competitive environment - the Decentralized Venture Capital concept. DAOLaunch offers preferential investment conditions depending on their investment performance recorded on the blockchain. Recorded investment platforms are not editable, DAOLaunch investors can brand themselves as Decentralized Venture Capitalists and they can negotiate investment terms like traditional VC firms do these days. We aim to change the structure of closed investment deals to an open and more competitive deal structure that takes place on the blockchain. This will drastically expand the startup industry.Highly Functional Financial Product Creation Platform and Grant SystemDAOLaunch provides a highly functional and comprehensive financial product creation platform. This platform enables anyone to seamlessly create and support new products in financial markets across all borders, regardless of its status as a crypto or non-crypto startup. No coding knowledge is required - easily build new financial products that have real demand. The DAOLaunch grant system called the IBO (Initial Buy-Back Offering) is a brand new concept of a reimagined standard of startup launch methodology. The grant process is conducted by a fully decentralize voting process where the native tokens of selected startups are directly purchased through a Buy-Back system from DAOLaunch after they're listed on the market using our allocated grant. The tokens purchased through our Buy-Back automatically burn. We secure the best investment conditions for the Decentralized Venture Capital ecosystem through blockchain technologies. We are a pioneer in shaping a new market On DAOLaunch, you can mint decentralized venture capital NFTs (DVC-NFT), vote, and record the investment performance on blockchain, whilst negotiating better investment terms. DVC-NFTs also allows you to create your own token index portfolio as an NFT. Users can deposit their seed tokens in the contract like a VC entity on NFT.Trade/Lend VC portfolio on the NFT marketplaceCreate your VC portfolio as an NFT. Trade or lend your VC portfolio to earn capital or interest without losing ownership of it. Until now, the funds invested into startups could not be used effectively until the lockup period was over. But with the DVC-NFT, even when the token is locked you can make a profit by trading or lending the DVC-NFT itself. DAOLaunch aims to create a new market in the crypto decentralized finance economy.
