FundMesh is a decentralized crowdfunding DApp built on Ethereum. The platform introduces innovative trust mechanisms and milestone-based funding releases to create better alignment between project creators and backers.
- Milestone-Based Funding: (WIP) Funds are released progressively as projects achieve community-approved milestones.
- Community Governance: Contributors vote on whether projects should receive their next funding tranche.
- NFT Rewards: Contributors earn commemorative NFTs for projects they've helped succeed.
- Full Transparency: All project funding and governance operates on-chain for complete transparency.
- No Platform Fees: Direct creator-to-backer funding without intermediaries.
Note: The milestone-based funding feature is currently a work-in-progress and under active development.
