STARTA ICO - A Blockchain funded Startup Accelerator (& Happy July 4th!)

Starta has raised nearly half its goal in about 25 minutes.


STARTA - A Startup Accelerator


I'm always on the lookout for interesting ICOs so I thought I would share one which I think has great potential (assuming it goes to plan).

The project is called STARTA and is aiming to raise $5m dollars in a variety of cryptocurrencies to create something akin to a venture capital startup accelerator.

There are 21 companies tech companies involved some of whom already have some partial funding and are planning to launch in the US market.

Some of the 21 Startups involved.

To get the full details and read the whitepaper go to their website:

https://www.startaico.com/

At the time of writing the ICO is about 25 minutes in and they have almost raised half of their 5 million dollar target.

The current price is roughly $1 per token and you can invest using the following cryptocurrencies:

  • Bitcoin
  • Litecoin
  • Ethereum
  • Ether Classic
  • Waves

As always exercise caution and don't take my word for this being a good investment - I am not an expert and can be 100% wrong.

Please also let me know what you think of this project in the comments - I think these things are always a risk. The whitepaper doesn't really go into much detail - but that seems to be the rule rather than the exception in the crypto world!


EDIT - Forgot to say Happy Independence Day to all my US friends!


Hope you are all having a great celebration!

You're welcome!

Good share @thecryptofiend !

Do you know if they have plans on going to exchanges soon? Thanks bro, Im holding a little, bought early in the day. :D

There is no information yet but I think they probably will.

noob question: Does the 5M limit means there will be 5M tokens only?

Cheers

Yes that is how I understand it. They have sold out now and the ICO has finished.

Ok this looks interesting but I am bit careful on choosing ICO as my money in stuck in SONM and I am waiting for it to breakeven and then I will pull out and invest in a better ICO

Yes that is always a risk. I have invested in a few where it got stuck either as a result of delays or the price just tanked. In most cases they do make a profit though even if you have to wait a while.

That is why I skipped EOS and Tezos
But I am happy that I got some SP with thst money and it will help in long term.

Well with most of these things I am hoping to use the profits to invest in things that I believe in long term like Steem, Litecoin, Bitcoin and ETH.

Already have bitcoin ETC and strat in my Ledger wallet.
Steem is now here
Adding Siacoin now for long term

Bro do you have any channel in discord ?

No I'm not keen on using Discord it slows my computer down to a crawl.

That is fine. I was thinking to have contact on it for chat and other discussions

There are so many ICO's these days that it's becoming dificult to keep track of.

Right now we're in a mania phase. Many of these ICO's are seeing a huge rush in investment and interest. Make hay while the sun shines.

But many of these new digital coins and tokens will fail. Keep this in mind.

Oooh, love that Waves made the list of investment tokens!

I will search more about it interesting post.upvoted!!!

This is a waves token right? Have you looked into the difference of waves and Bitshares? I am very curious if any of these other platforms can supplant ethereum.

It is Waves based. The main difference is in the technology behind them Waves uses something called Scorex (or at least it did originally) and Bitshares uses Graphene but someone with more knowledge on the technical aspects can likely speak more to the differences. Right now I think it is hard to see anything displacing ethereum.

I think someone will. Eth is too general. It's like yahoo. There will be a google. Or Facebook and then linked in. The problem is there are network effects helping eth now but when the platform is used for other things I thtink then the ico pure play can win.

It is an interesting concept but to me it seems a little odd in a way. Like they need Seed money to then provide seed money to other startup projects. Is that the way you interpret it as well? I mean a person could look at it like investing in a mutual fund where then they are invested in individual startups and if the net effect of those early projects is positive then you will come out ahead.

Well that is one way of looking at it. From my understanding of what they are doing it looks like a way of getting round the hurdles of allowing regular people to do something like VC investing.

yeah I can see it that way as well! In general that is why I love crypto. You can actually get in on the ground floor of these projects when before a regular person would have an extremely hard time investing in a startup.

So true it allows us regular people to get in on this sort of thing.

Initiatives like this keeps the crypto world fresh. Particularly like the look of Hyperverse.

They will also lead to the eventual consolidation of the industry

I haven't seen that - do you have a link?

It looks interesting - but like with some of the other companies there isn't a whole lot of information yet. Aerostate also looks interesting from a public health perspective.

STARTA ICO looks really interesting with experienced team behind it. Thanks @thecryptofiend for sharing it.

You're welcome.

great share nice info.

I bought some Starta ICO!

Cool but I hope you didn't just buy it because of me - always check the details yourself I may be completely wrong.

I wrote a posts some days ago and I look at projects a lot, don't worry

Cool thanks just making sure!

Sure I trust in it! Did you invested?

Yes I did. Hopefully it succeeds and does well.
