BitMovio Announces Equity Crowdfunding, New Partnerships for Asia Expansion and Community Development, and New Product Feature Enhancements

BitMovio’s mission is to bring a Fortnite-style gamified experience to video entertainment. The platform aims to fundamentally change how content creators, viewers, and financiers participate, interact, and engage within the video content ecosystem. Since launched its open beta in early 2019, BitMovio has attracted more than 1,000 creator channels on the platform with more than 7,000 hours of content uploaded.

BitMovio Equity Crowdfunding is Live on Netcapital

BitMovio recently launched its equity crowdfunding on Netcapital and invites all global supporters to contribute while participating in its mission to redefine the video streaming market. Angel investors, partners, content creators, and fans can support the platform’s mission by pledging with as little as $100. Those who pledge before December 31, 2019 will also receive 20% worth of bonus tokens.

Featuring a freemium revenue model, BitMovio is a blockchain-enabled, gamified video entertainment platform built for the Fortnite generation. Democratizing investment in early stage companies is consistent with BitMovio’s core values as it allows anyone to invest in the company’s success and become brand ambassadors to help grow its community and advocate for its mission. The platform will use its crowdfunding resources to continue to bridge blockchain and the video entertainment free marketplace.
