The region now accounts for over two-thirds of global crowdfunding efforts, leading worldwide growth in this sector.

The fintech company has been operating in crowdfunding space since 2012. It now aims to use cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology to go global, while maintaining a strong focus on Asia.

Today, crowdfunding platforms worldwide rely heavily on banks and payment systems. These intermediaries restrict the geography of startups allowed to launch their campaigns on some of world’s biggest platforms, permitting only a handful of developed countries to take part. The financial agents also set long waiting times for startups to withdraw the money collected during product presale.

By using blockchain technology, it is possible to bring opportunity to millions of potential entrepreneur worldwide by lifting a series of grave limitations in this scene. The distributed ledger will provide access to crowdfunding for entrepreneurs from any country, including the underserved communities in Southeast Asia.

While ensuring governance with smart contracts, trustless money transactions on blockchain will cut waiting time from weeks to minutes.

“Partnership with Singapore FinTech Association boosts our focus on delivering innovation and creating opportunity for emerging businesses wherever in the world they are. We will also help startups to build active communities offering supporters to use their home computers to generate cryptocurrencies, united as cloud-mining pools, in favour of the startup”.

In July 2018, the fintech company has started providing an option for startups on its already operational platform to be funded with cryptocurrencies.
