COINQVEST Receives 0.5M USD as Equity-Free Grant through the Stellar Seed Fund

COINQVEST is ecstatic to announce bringing home top prize in the inaugural round of the Stellar Seed Fund. We're humbled by the support of the Stellar community and everyone who voted for us to bring compliant cryptocurrency payment processing to online businesses everywhere.

COINQVEST Receives 0.5M USD as Equity-Free Grant through the Stellar Seed Fund

Tallinn, Estonia - May 12th, 2021 - COINQVEST today announced its selection as the top business in the Stellar Seed Fund №1, where it was awarded first place by a panel of Stellar Development Foundation members and peers in the Stellar ecosystem.

The final round consisted of eight participants, each being awarded an equity-free grant amount proportionate to the number of votes received. The COINQVEST cryptocurrency payment gateway received 835,214 XLM, worth more than 500k USD at the time of writing. In all, 58 fintech businesses and blockchain projects entered the nine-month long competition in August 2020, vying for one of the final spots.

COINQVEST is humbled and privileged for being selected as the top project. It demonstrates a confidence in what we do and shared vision of a future with programmable money with borderless payments. It validates our product and acknowledges our efforts. Consequently, it implies accountability and responsibility to continue providing value to the ecosystem that supports us.

The Seed Fund, apart from being a monetary grant to a fledgling startup like the COINQVEST, bestows innumerable benefits to those able to put themselves under scrutiny and rise to the test.

In fact, it was winning the smaller Stellar Community Fund nearly a year ago that allowed us to acquire our European Union crypto payment processing license. Without the license, we would not have been able to grow and develop our business to the point where we are today.

Co-founder Marcin Olszowy had this to say: “Being peer-critiqued and discussed objectively has been invaluable in shaping and reexamining crucial aspects of our business.”

COINQVEST's other co-founder, Stefan Schneider, adds “The increased attention we’ve gained also means being able to showcase our strengths and real-world functionality as a digital currency/ stable coin payment provider. We truly appreciate having the opportunity to be a part the Seed Fund. I can’t recommend participation enough to those building on Stellar and wanting to take their projects to the next level.”

We would like to thank the Stellar Development Foundation for their hard work in bringing programmable money to reality and creating the Seed Fund. Their mission, to be an equitable financial link connecting the world, has inspired change in an antiquated industry. The Seed Fund thrusts these ideas into the light.

Our team would also like to congratulate the other entries and finalists in this round. We understand the challenges posed to take an idea and develop it into a viable business, and have it picked apart.

To be a part of the Seed Fund and share what we are working on is a reward by itself. Preparing for this funding round urged us to fine-tune and improve our platform for voters to test and critique. It also challenged us to answer questions the community would have about functionality and logistics of our product. The feedback we received is key to our ongoing improvement.
