01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
KurateDAO was a New York blockchain startup founded in 2022 by Michael Fischer, building infrastructure for content curation through cryptoeconomic games. Its curate-to-earn model had three roles: curators set the rules for a database, scouts contributed content and earned tokens proportional to viewership, and viewers paid tokens or watched ads, with treasury revenue split between scouts and curators. The company raised a $6.85 million seed round led by Polychain Capital in March 2022.
