I'm currently building a real world farming DAO operating in fast growing emerging markets. My plan is to finance our farms through DeFi dapps.
Since this is not possible right now, I think I will build a model that crowdfunds the farm and investors get the return plus governance tokens of the DAO.
This will allow us to build more credibility and then access DeFi liquidity, I assume.
To crowdfund, I'll need some legal licenses, and more.
To sum it all, I think, I'll need to raise capital because of the costs.
And I don't think it's hard to be viable with our model.
Assuming crowdfunding would be the first financing option for our farms, this means that investors are a part of the clients.
Now, from your experience and insight, what would you require to prove to potential investors that there product market fit for the crowdfunding financing of our farms?
- Does anonymous filled google forms citing how much people would invest be enough?
- Does an email list and social with followers be enough?
- What would you require as a VC?
A mix of both of them?
Any comment/ feedback/ ideas will be appreciated, good or bad.
