Crypto Link

📢 About 📢

Crypto Link is a self-funding multi-functional & multi-guild Discord bot serving as a bridge between the Stellar Ecosystem and Discord users. Being built on top of the Stellar Blockchain, it utilizes the native token, Stellar Lumen (a.k.a XLM) and tokens issued on Stellar chain, allowing for execution of Peer to Peer transactions amongst users, monetization opportunities for Discord guild owners and project promotions/crowdfunding/ICOs activities at low costs for aspiring fintech-companies building with the help of Stellar.

❓ Why Discord ❓

Discord has gained popularity across all spectrum of users. Still considered as a gamers platform, in recent years, drastic increase of crypto and other topic specific communities has been observed.

From year 2016 - 2019 user registration count has gone up from 25 million to drastic 250 million with monthly active users set to 100 million. There is 6.7 million Discord Active Servers where total daily activity is set to 14 million users. More on statistics can be found in this article.

Taking beforementioned statistics, Ease of Discord server creation, and support for bots, represent an enormous potential and opportunity for Stellar Ecosystem to gain additional exposure, and bring its unique characteristics of fast low-cost transactions and low-cost token creation to the masses.

Having that in mind, we have therefore set on the road to create Crypto Link Discord bot, a "bridge" between Stellar Ecosystem and Discord Platform. Through its use, every Discord user and Discord server will be able to create tokens on Stellar Network, execute payments, and create full blown economy as they see fit for their daily operations.

Additionally, Crowdfunding activities costs a lot of resources before ideas can obtain initial funds for project development. Therefore we have decided to expand Crypto Link beyond the limits of the bot. Its ecosystem will involve as well project accelerator program, where potential projects/ideas will be granted Crypto Link staff support, in order to shad a light on the idea and make a first step in crypto-sphere.

#️⃣ Bot's Coding Language #️⃣

Crypto Link is coded completely in python which is high-level and general-purpose programming language. While criticized of his speed, we felt that its simple simple syntax will allow all spectrum of programmers to contribute to the Crypto Link development and with additionally help not just the project grow however as well in the rate of adoption of Stellar Ecosystem.
