So you’ve vibecoded something cool and now you want to raise funds to take it to the next level… what to do?\n\nTwo approaches, depending on how formal you want to take it\n\n1. Make it a real startup - form an entity and use the cyberRaise product from @MetaLeX_Labs to raise from investors in a few clicks\n\nWhy go this route?\n\n>you want to establish a formal company to get a bank account, sign agreements, etc\n\n>you are not ready to launch a token, or a token doesn’t make sense\n\n>you want to raise funds compliantly, but you don’t want to pay lawyers $50k+ and deal with all the hassle that comes with\n\n>you want a simple, low overhead way to build an actual startup with the optionality of raising larger VC rounds in the future \n\n2. Keep it as a “project” and tap the Internet Capital Markets\n\nWhy go this route?\n\n>you are not ready to form a legal entity and take on the administration that entails or raise from external investors \n\n>you don’t need a lot of money up front that typically comes from raising from investors, you’re ok tying the token success to your ability to fund the project \n\n>you are comfortable operating in a regulatory grey zone wrt tokens and managing a token community\n\n>you want to seek validation for your product via volatile crypto markets\n\nIf you go this route, there are multiple platforms with different mechanisms for how tokens are launched, do your homework and choose wisely\n\nBoth approaches can help you but take you down very different paths
