Crowdfunding Platform Polinate Finally Launches Its DApp

Polinate, the blockchain-crowdfunding bridge has finally launched its dapp, empowering creatives worldwide to take fundraising into their own hands. Having gone through its IDO recently, the team has continued the trend, launching its app on the 30th of September.

Polinate is a platform looking to reduce the red-tapism found in native crowdfunding platforms. Although most crowdfunding platforms claim to be centered around creatives, they are also plagued by a host of problems including, long and complicated registration processes, exorbitant commissions, and lack of a fan-creative relationship. Polinate tries to change that narrative, making it easier for creators in every sector to raise funds for projects while ensuring that there is a solid relationship between the creator and their audience.

By leveraging cryptocurrency’s ease of use and low barrier to entry, the Polinate app will enable permissionless and decentralized crowdfunding. Using the app creators will be able to launch their projects and receive initial funding from fans to provide liquidity. Furthermore, holding tokens will allow users to gain specific rewards set by the creators they support.

Polinate Announces Its First Five Creators

As the dapp has been launched, Polinate has also decided to field the first five creators that will feature on its platform. There is a mix of creators from different realms of media and production. So far Jake James, a rapper, Izzy Lugo III a podcaster, Ayesha Syeddah, an Pakistani creator living in Ireland with plans to build an Irish-centric magazine, Diane Holloway and her Nike ID-decentralized idea and Ahmad Khan with his video-game project have all been chosen to lead the frontier on the platform.

So far only one creator, Jake James is present on the platform and you can claim rewards from the dapp ‘claim’ section. Jake James is an investor turned rapper. He has released two singles produced by Buckwild and Statik Selektah and recently released his debut EP, ‘a letter of intent’. The other four are expected to feature on the platform on different dates in early October.
