Founders’ Address: December 2021

Dear Community,

What an exciting journey we have had so far! First of all, we would like to thank you all for supporting us at our launch in October, and for continuing to support us since.

Even though it has been just under 3 months since the launch of KSM Starter, it does feel like it has been forever. Since the launch, we went through struggles together with you, sold out every single IDO in less than an hour, and are on track to offer many more IDOs in increasing frequency to our community.

Our global community is pushing above 200,000 individuals, and our platform-wide TVL (total value locked) has surpassed $2,000,000 dollars. Those are some insane numbers, and we are always humbled by the passionate support of our community.

With the help of our community, 2022 is going to be a profoundly exciting year for KSM Starter. The first thing our community will witness in 2022 will be the revealing of our new brand. KSM Starter has gone truly cross-chain, offering IDOs on ETH, BSC, Polygon, Avalanche, Moonriver, Heco, and native Substrate. We believe that the name KSM Starter in such a case does not do full justice to the sheer scope of our involvement in different blockchain projects. Therefore, a rebranding is the natural choice and something we are truly excited to reveal to you in the coming days.

Moreover, we are working on much-needed changes. The change of the website and the app will be a very welcomed change, we believe, after many of our community members have submitted their feedback on it. More community-provided feedback is to be implemented, such as APY-generating staking pool, and distancing from using ETH as the main chain to avoid high gas fees, and improving the whitelisting and registration process. We have heard your feedback, and all of them are being implemented.

In 2022, we will continue to push the frontier with innovative concepts like Initial Metaverse Offerings, Initial DAO Offerings, Initial Community Offerings, and more. Our team has witnessed phenomenal growth, and we are still looking for skilled developers to join our team! 2022 will hold its fair share of challenges, but we are confident that together with our community, we will continue to lead and innovate.

Once again, thank you for your sincerest support.

You are what makes everything possible.

Sincerely Yours,

Siwon Kim

And

Aljaz Tisler
