Wow I totally did not notice it in the title somehow! With all the payments being made in Steem and 3 Steem being equal to 1 SBD currently, would a request of 1,200 Steem worth about $4,000 be about equal to what you have requested?
Given we have no platform yet, would it be acceptable now to fund the development and domain at this phase and then when we have a functional platform invest in marketing and promotion because it is easier to make several smaller payments as we go along given this is a new project?
Yes, that's perfectly acceptable! I wouldn't expect everything up front so long as we have some line of communication. I have steem chat on my phone, but I'll send you my email over there in case you need to get a hold of me.
Ryan how much initial funding would be good to get the the domain and hosting now?
