Entrepreneur and Crypto enthusiast Trevor Owens announced the launch of the Stacks Accelerator Fund via a Crowdcast stream, Tuesday, April 13th. The news comes as the price of Stacks native token (STX) continues to grow in the aftermath of the February announcement that it would be listed on Korean Exchange, Upbit. This latest project aims to accelerate funding for builders and developers on Stacks to help them be successful. Some of the projects built on Stacks to date include the communication suite Pravica, data collection and sharing service Block Survey and the STX NFT wallet Boom.
The Stacks Accelerator Fund was founded by four of the organisations in the Stacks Ecosystem; The Stacks Foundation, Hiro, Daemon Technologies and Freehold. It is a $4 million evergreen fund with 80% of returns going back to the fund in order to invest in more projects building on Stacks. What do you get if you are successful in applying for the fund?
