FundBrave: Decentralized Fundraising Platform - Seeking Developer Contributors

Project Overview

FundBrave is a revolutionary decentralized fundraising platform that eliminates intermediaries, ensures transparency through blockchain technology, and creates sustainable incentive mechanisms for both donors and fundraisers. Think of it as a fusion of GoFundMe’s accessibility, social media engagement, and DeFi’s financial innovation, all built on decentralized infrastructure.

The Problem We’re Solving:

  • Traditional fundraising platforms charge high fees and can censor campaigns
  • Lack of transparency in fund usage and allocation
  • Limited donor engagement and incentivization
  • Barriers for marginalized voices to access funding
  • No verification system for authentic campaigns

Why Now?

The intersection of DeFi innovation, growing demand for transparent fundraising, and the proven success of decentralized platforms creates a perfect opportunity. With complete designs ready and a clear technical roadmap, we’re positioned to build something truly impactful.

Together, we can democratize fundraising and create sustainable financial incentives for global good.

Very cool @paschal533 :slight_smile: I am going to share it around to people in Logos Circles Brno because they were asking where/how they can contribute code - this sounds like a great cause to get involved:-)

What is the current state of development? Is there any kind of PoC or feature list that you could share here? Or is that only gonna get shared to people interested in contributing?

@vpavlin Thanks so much for the enthusiasm and for sharing with the Brno group! Really appreciate you helping spread the word :raised_hands:
Currently we’re at a really exciting transition point. The complete UI/UX design is finished including wireframes, user flows, and the full component library.
I’m setting up the GitHub repository structure this week and beginning smart contract development. We’re also starting frontend scaffolding with Next.js and Web3 integration. So perfect timing for people who want to get involved from the ground up. As for the feature list and development roadmap, I’d prefer to share the detailed breakdown with people who are genuinely interested in contributing. I’ll share the GitHub link here once it’s ready and I will create a thread in Logos HQ for real-time coordination. Would love to get the Brno group involved early!
