👋 Product Hunters! My name is Chris and I’m one of the co-creators of https://hackerstash.com and I'm very excited to share the project everyone! 💡 What is it? https://hackerstash.com is a new community designed to drive people’s projects forward and help them earn funds they can spend to grow their businesses. It’s a private community, and it costs $9 per month per project (unlimited team members). But here’s the catch: the money isn’t for us! All subscription fees go straight into the prize pool and get awarded to the community’s chosen winners each week 😊. There’s a promo code at lower down too 👇 🤔 Why? For people who regularly participate in communities like Producthunt, Indiehackers, Reddit, Twitter etc it's an immensely rewarding experience, but there are plenty of people who prefer to sit on the sidelines. Lurking is nice, I do that in some communities too(!), but if you’re working on a project the you really can supercharge it by joining the conversation and connecting with others. This is central to the community and tournament mechanics we've been defining. Likewise it's often hard to give back. I see some many people making rad projects online, but I don't personally need all of them. Other than advice, or sharing projects with friends, I'd love to be able to help financially. Access to small amounts of capital can make or break a new project, and we wanted to create a platform that enables us to help each other on that front too. — If you want to see what it's all about then go check out the product, and please use the promo code PRODUCTHUNT to receive your first month free. Leave some feedback and if you would like to you're welcome to DM me on Twitter or leave a comment below.

I've been on HackerStash since the early days, and even when the community was super small I was getting a ton of really great advice and feedback on what I'm working on. As the community grows, it's only gotten better. I was really surprised how quickly HS became the first community I check when I get online in the morning. The access to funding is honestly secondary to me - but as the community grows so too will the funding amount, which I think will make this a game-changing community. What if the next big thing is built and funded on HackerStash! Really excited to see where the team takes this!

@mattcrail thanks Matt, your feedback and continued support has been amazing! If the next big thing is built on HackerStash that would be awesome, but small this are great too, and as you say - the community comes first, funding is a nice add-on 🥰

Congrats on the launch! I've used Hackerstash and found it a compelling new way to motivate yourself to hit a weekly goal. It's also a great chance to get involved in a like-minded community. Looking forward to seeing how it evolves!

Been a part of the HS community for about 3 weeks now and I can't emphasize how great of a productivity and motivation tool it's proved to be. (https://honeycoin.app) has won once but in relation to the thoughtful feedback and supportive community in HS, winning is simply an added bonus imo. If you're on the edge, here's your call-to-action! Give it a try for free, and I'm almost certain you'll want to stick around ;) Congrats on the PH launch! @codefreechris @hazme1ster

I'm part of a few communities, but these guys take it further! They built a great gamification system awarding users with real money. I love this idea and the support they provide to starting entrepreneurs and indie hackers.
