In order to use the platform, you need to install MetaMask in the browser. This is very inconvenient and makes a stumbling block for mass implementation.

@kiku_reise You are right but the way we see it is; with crypto-apps there is always the tradeoff between control and UX. We might add alternatives in the future but for now we feel much more comfortable with the users being in control of their funds/wallets. Especially with regards to the number of cases where dApps hosted wallets and got hacked.

@kiku_reise While true (honestly, I agree), it seems like MetaMask is widely enough used by the primary demographic of Fundabit that this won't be a serious barrier to entry. I'd like to see how Fundabit achieves additional adoption of MetaMask, though

There are also other alternatives as well. With tokenary.io even Safari users can join the fun. We are evaluating other options as well. Yet, I believe that time will take care of most inconveniences @kiku_reise @chris_germano

This is very exciting! We are so proud that Fundabit has reached this stage and hope that you are going to love it. We truly believe that this is an important step towards Web 3.0 and creator independence. Subscriptions and recurring donations are essential for the livelihood of many creators today. Yet, the de-financing and de-platforming practices of YouTube, Patreon, PayPal or Visa have revealed the high level of platform dependency. Blockchain & cryptocurrency are invaluable in ensuring creative freedom and bringing creators and fans closer together. 🎉 Special PH Promo 🎉 We pay for your smart contract! The first 100 creators that start a project on Fundabit don’t need to pay the 50ct transaction fee. All you need is the MetaMask plug-in or any other Web3 browser. No cryptocurrency needed.

Not sure what a reasonable service fee for such a platform is but 5% seems a little high doesn't it?
Tobi Schoder
Maker
On first glance it may seem like a lot but when compared to Web2 platforms that typically charge 10-30%, we believe it's actually quite reasonable. @phil_velseck

@schoby Well, that would be a pretty good discount then.

From what I understand, it's not possible to force money out of a wallet unless you give away your private key. I presume that subscribers will have to deposit money into a wallet controlled by Fundabit?

@dddraeger Actually not anymore. Users do not have to pay in advance or put down a debit, but give only the permission to a recurring transaction from their wallet. That's what the Ethereum ERC 1337 standard we make use of is all about.

What problem are you solving with Fundabit? Okay, I see it is built on Ethereum from them title.

Hi @dainiskanopa, if you are an independent creator then what problem aren't we solving. Web3, enabled by blockchain & cryptocurrency, establishes a P2P connection between the creators and his fans. As crypto slowly establishes itself as the Internet's native currency it makes the entire payment industry, with all its flaws and inefficiencies, obsolete and thus guarantees true independence and creative freedom for the growing creative class.
