Future Plans

As we continue development, we’re getting some amazing projects who are in need of some attention!

Our first project fundraisers are in the horizons! We’ll be opening our service to the public in the near future as well!

If you’re interested in being one of the first to test our platform, join us on Discord and tell us about your project!

We’ll be taking the holiday off to celebrate with our families. After that, the development continues! We’ve also been researching ICOs and SMTs. We will be further investigating these as they could help the SteemRaise platform grow!

More About Our Team

We received a request on our first post: We need to write not only about the platform, but about ourselves as well! Each announcement we make will now include a bio of one of the people on our team. (Until everyone on the team has taken a turn!)

Oscar - @oskikiboy

Hello, my name is Oscar. I am a 13 year old full stack software developer. My general development focus is front-end and/or back-end tools that deliver a front-end. I have 3 years experience managing software and hardware in a professional manner and over 1 year development experience.

At the age of 12, all my friends had got into this crazy mining trend, and I mean, who wouldn't. It's free money, after all. Blockchain just kept on getting better with more intuitive ways to use it. I mean one day the internet will be solely powered by this stuff. Then Blockchain's greatest innovation yet came out.

When I found out about Steemit, it was an amazing opportunity for me to learn what Blockchain was capable of as I had just began delving into the amazing world of Blockchain and crypto-currency. Then I found Steemit.

Regardless of my inactive status, I saw an amazing platform with a great future. My friend Tate showed me the amazing ways we could expand and improve on this amazing technology. Then he came up with his best idea yet. SteemRaise.

SteemRaise has a long way to go but development is coming along swifty. I hope to be involved in me amazing innovations like this to help improve the world for the better (and bonus, I can pick up some sweet new skills). I hope to see you all around in the long run. Happy Steeming!
