🚀 Launching repo.trade: A Phased Approach

🌱 Initial Launch: Building Awareness and Community

At repo.trade, we're taking a measured approach to our launch, starting with a simplified version of our platform. This strategy allows us to build awareness, gather valuable community input, and ensure a smooth transition to our full-featured blockchain-based system.

🎉 Current Features

  1. 📚 Repository Registration: Users can register any GitHub repository with our site. This is the first step in identifying projects that the community finds valuable and worthy of tokenization.

  2. 🗳️ Voting System: Each user can vote for up to 10 repositories. This voting mechanism helps us gauge interest and prioritize which projects to onboard in the future.

🤔 Why This Approach?

  1. 📢 Raising Awareness: This soft launch allows us to introduce the concept of repo.trade to the wider open-source community, explaining our vision and gathering feedback.

  2. 🤝 Community Building: By starting with voting, we're fostering community engagement from day one, allowing developers and users to have a say in the platform's direction.

  3. 🐣 Gradual Onboarding: This approach lets us carefully select and onboard projects for tokenization, ensuring each launch is given proper attention and resources.

  4. 🎯 Resource Optimization: Launching everything at once in a permissionless way could dilute resources and attention. Our phased approach ensures each project gets the spotlight it deserves.

🔮 Next Steps

As we move forward, we'll gradually introduce on-chain activities, starting with carefully selected projects based on community voting and our assessment. This will allow participants to engage in token auctions and experience the full potential of repo.trade.

Stay tuned for updates on when we'll be launching our first on-chain projects and opening up the auction process! 🎊
