Your CTO has no technical history in cryptocurrency - at least according to his Linkedin profile.

Your CEO is just a management consultant.

And idk what your CIO is or wants to be.

Please form a proper team first.

We're young founders working on our first startup and can't hire a team without money, hence the post. Insulting our experience helps no one.

Learn to take a hit.

When you say young, I see inexperience.
I'm only asking why anyone should invest their hard earned money on you guys while there are literally hundreds of options with teams that have way better exposure to this sector.

And if you can't handle that then you better lose any hopes of furthering your project in this space. Trust me there are worse things to be said.

You don't have to be Satoshi to understand how to use crypto.

But you do need to have some understanding of what you're getting into if you're expecting other people to pay for your adventures. If you did it with your own money, no one would care if you washed it down the drain.

Here's an advice :

Work on something with your existing team. Build connections first. People that have exposure to this industry and someone that can guide you.

I have a deep understanding of what I'm getting into. I first started following the crypto industry in 2013 (same as you), started learning coding in 2014 and have been intensely studying the surrounding tech and participating in the industry since early 2016. Lack of a day job at a crypto company does not mean I don't have technical experience with crypto. If there's a problem with the tech I designed I'm all ears, but insulting our experience based on our prior work history not including direct experience with an established crypto company is unhelpful. We're using blockchain to build automated record keeping software to replace specific processes at banks and we all have direct experience with the processes we're looking to automate.

I do get your point that from an investors perspective we don't have prior successful companies under our belts which means investing in our project is inherently more risky than investing in someone more established like Elon Musk or Vitalik Buterin, but at some point they were in the same position as us right now. The current processes our software will replace cost financial firms millions of dollars per transaction so there's a huge reward so long as the project can be properly funded. If we were rich we would fund it ourselves, but we're not rich and can not afford to work on the project full time anymore without funding
