S'pore startup launching SEA's first cryptocurrency crowdfunding platform
Singapore
A HOMEGROWN startup is betting on cryptocurrency crowdfunding as the next fintech vogue. It has created a platform to allow entrepreneurs to raise funds for their projects using virtual currencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, instead of regular currency.
FundYourselfNow, as the platform is named, will launch to the public in early 2018, The Business Times has learnt. It will be the first cryptocurrency crowdfunding platform in South-east Asia, according to its founders Jack Ser and Kenneth Tan.
