CardStarter is a decentralized accelerator and swapping platform, connecting early-stage Cardano innovators with their community of donors.“We provide $CARDS holders early access and guaranteed allocation to seed rounds, presales, and private sales of Cardano projects. By utilizing CardStarter, developers building on the Cardano Network will have an avenue to generate early support through the ERC20 network.”

How does it work?

By launching on ERC20, CardStarter allows developers to get early support and funding. As soon as projects are deployable through Cardano’s Plutus platform, CardStarter will migrate and all projects to work on the Cardano blockchain.
