Pre-Launch

What's brewing? New Idea Validation for Creators, Builders, and Indie Makers

The Builder's Burden

One of the biggest problems that most creators and founders face is finding users for the projects that they are working on.

They may be working on a next-generation revolutionary dApp, but without sufficient marketing, awareness, and influence, it will be an uphill struggle to launch their project successfully.

What's even worse is that in a space where more than 90% of projects are scams and rugpulls (am tempted to say 99% here even), it becomes exponentially more difficult for legitimate builders to stand out and distinguish themselves.

Without the broad reach required to take off, many promising projects will unfortunately fail and fade into obscurity.

Pre-Launch Phase

Pump.Build's Pre-Launch Phase addresses this challenge by allowing founders to create and showcase their projects on our platform, enabling them to share their vision, development progress, and build in public over time before their actual token launch.

Current users on the platform can explore projects being built, follow them for updates, and receive notifications (emails etc) when the project is about to launch and enter its commitment round.

Instead of starting from zero and having to worry about marketing and user acquisition, this approach would enable founders to focus on building and developing the best product or service they can.

At the same time, they gain access to engaged users who can share their thoughts and feedback on the direction their projects should take.

Incentives Alignment

So what's in it for the users to contribute their time, effort, and energy to support projects on Pump.Build?

First and most importantly, on a wider scale, they will be contributing into making a healthier crypto and web3 space where legitimate projects with real value propositions get the chance to grow and flourish.

Next, they will be able to actively contribute to the development and success of a Pump.Build project, and perhaps even receive rewards from the team when the project successfully graduates.

Lastly, should they be a Pump.Build staker, they would receive a share of all revenues generated from the project - this includes any fees (creation fees, monthly fees, trading fees etc).

Founders gain valuable insights from early users, and may decide to pivot or make changes to improve their odds of success. At the same time, they will be able to access a community of other founders on Pump.Build for support, mentorship, and advice.

Upon successful graduation, a small percentage of the project's tokens would also be allocated to the platform (1%) and a DAO (2%) which can then decide on any future trading decisions, where any sales proceeds would be distributed to stakers proportionally.

With this model, user success and platform growth become perfectly aligned - as projects thrive, everyone benefits together
