This guide offers aspiring crypto entrepreneurs essential insights and actionable steps to successfully launch their own ventures. While many investors focus on chasing the next big cryptocurrency, “Crypto For Dummies” highlights that the real opportunity lies in building the infrastructure that supports these digital assets.

**FirstByt Introduces “Crypto For Dummies”: A Comprehensive Program for Crypto Entrepreneurs and Investors**

VILNIUS, Lithuania, Aug. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — In an era where blockchain technology continues to revolutionize industries and create new avenues for growth, FirstByt is excited to announce the launch of its innovative program, “Crypto For Dummies” This all-encompassing program is designed to guide investors and entrepreneurs through every crucial stage of launching a cryptocurrency project, whether centralized or decentralized, on the blockchain.

“The real opportunity in the blockchain space might not lie in buying cryptocurrencies but in building the infrastructure that powers them.”

As the crypto space becomes increasingly competitive, the potential rewards are immense, but so are the risks. Many investors are driven by the fear of missing out on the next big opportunity, with hopes of finding the next Bitcoin or Ethereum. However, statistics show that success in this space is rare. For example, as of August 2024, out of 1.7 million memecoins on the platform pump.fun, only 41 reached a $1 million market cap for multiple weeks, and a mere 15 held a $10 million market cap. This highlights a success rate of less than 0.001%.

For those looking to seize the true opportunity within the blockchain space, building the infrastructure that powers cryptocurrency projects may be the key. With the right approach, entrepreneurs can launch a crypto business in just a few months. Here’s a step-by-step guide to turning a vision into a successful crypto venture:

1. Register a Legal Entity

Regulation is paramount in running a successful crypto business, yet it often leads to divided opinions. Some entrepreneurs overspend on licensing, while others neglect it entirely. FirstByt recommends a balanced approach:

– **Assess Startup Capital:** Limit licensing costs to no more than 10% of your budget. Start with a cost-effective option and upgrade as your business grows.

– **Consider Products:** Align your product offerings with the regulatory environment of your chosen jurisdiction. Different services, such as crypto spot trading or derivatives, may require different approaches.

– **Target Geographical Areas:** Choose a jurisdiction that aligns with your target market, as operating in regions like the EU, US, or Japan will require local licenses.

– **Know Your Client:** Tailor your regulatory approach based on whether you are targeting retail or institutional clients, as each group has distinct expectations and compliance needs.

2. Secure Startup Capital and Maintain a Buffer

One of the most common pitfalls in the crypto industry is underestimating financial requirements. FirstByt emphasizes the importance of securing sufficient capital from the outset and maintaining a financial cushion:

– **Raising Capital:** Adequate funding is essential for executing your vision effectively.

– **Financial Cushion:** Be prepared for unforeseen costs that may arise before and after launch.

– **Quality Team:** Attracting and retaining top talent is crucial, as the right team can navigate the complexities of the crypto industry.

3. IT and Infrastructure: The Backbone of Your Business

Investing in IT and infrastructure is critical, typically consuming around 50% of your budget. Without a solid product, raising capital or attracting clients will be challenging:

– **Quick Launch:** Focus on launching quickly to validate your idea and make necessary adjustments.

-**White Label Solutions:** Consider acquiring a pre-built platform to save time and money while you build your brand.

– **Legitimate Partnerships:** Partner with reputable companies in the fintech space to ensure the reliability and security of your platform.

– **Building Your Team:** Once your product is live, start building your in-house IT team to further develop and scale your platform.

4. Sales and Marketing: The Key to Growth

A strong sales and marketing strategy is essential for standing out in a crowded market. FirstByt advises allocating no more than 40% of your budget to this area:

– **Strategic Marketing Plan:** Develop a data-driven marketing strategy that covers online advertising, social media, content marketing, and public relations.

– **Budget Allocation:** Allocate sufficient resources to ensure your product reaches the right audience.

– **Sales Team Excellence:** Hire proactive and knowledgeable salespeople who can effectively communicate your product’s value.

– **Customer Education:** Provide clear, accessible information to educate potential customers about your product.

– **Community Building:** Foster an online community to build loyalty and gather insights into your customers’ needs.

5. Reporting and Accounting: Staying Compliant

Accurate reporting and accounting are critical for compliance and financial health in the crypto industry. FirstByt highlights the importance of:

– **Robust Reporting Systems:** Invest in a system that can handle the complexities of crypto transactions.

– **Tax Compliance:** Ensure your accounting practices align with international standards.

– **Hiring Experts:** Consider hiring experienced crypto accountants to navigate the industry’s unique challenges.

The Future of Crypto: High Risk, High Reward

The crypto industry presents some of the most attractive opportunities for those willing to take the plunge. Many of the most successful venture capital projects in recent years have come from this space. FirstByt believes that now is the time to act if you’re considering starting a business in this fast-growing industry.

While launching a crypto business may seem daunting, following these steps—registering a legal entity, securing capital, building robust IT infrastructure, developing a strong marketing strategy, and maintaining accurate reporting—can position you for success.

Schematic Raises $4.8M in Funding For the Last Mile of Pricing and Packaging For SaaS Companies

Published

on

By

Schematic is transforming pricing and packaging for B2B SaaS companies, allowing product and engineering teams to implement flexible models with minimal maintenance. By eliminating fragmented, homegrown systems, Schematic helps businesses adapt to modern buying preferences and maximize revenue. Now publicly available, the platform includes embeddable UI components and integrates deeply with Stripe. Backed by $4.8M in seed funding, Schematic offers a streamlined solution for managing the full pricing and packaging lifecycle.

BOULDER, Colo., Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Schematic is transforming pricing and packaging for B2B SaaS companies by getting product and engineering teams out of billing projects. With just a few lines of code, businesses can implement pricing and packaging into any application, bridging the gap between outdated, inflexible billing tools and the demands of modern software businesses.

“Maintaining pricing and packaging has been messy for product and engineering teams. Tools exist for finance, but none bridge the gap to support feature fulfillment and user experience. Schematic fills that gap, offering control and transparency from rollout to revenue,” said Fynn Glover, CEO

The company announced today that it is now available to the public after a year in development with a select set of beta customers, and that it is launching Components – embeddable UI elements for purchasing experiences – and a deep integration with Stripe providing a full stack solution for pricing and packaging.

The current pricing and packaging landscape is dominated by fragmented systems and frankenstein implementations. Schematic surveyed 100s of product and engineering leaders and found that their homegrown systems and processes weren’t built for flexibility or to support modern buying preferences such as metering and modular packaging. Consistently, teams struggled to adequately resource pricing and packaging initiatives and, as a result, left significant money on the table.

“Historically, maintaining pricing and packaging for product and engineering teams has been a mess. The market has tools for finance teams in spades, but none that bridge the gap to the application to support feature fulfillment, the end user experience, and internal tools, so we end up building them from scratch. We built Schematic to address that gap, and our product allows businesses to handle the entire lifecycle of a feature from rollout to revenue, offering best-in-class control and transparency to end users out of the box,” said Fynn Glover, CEO of Schematic.

The company wants to eliminate the need for businesses to reinvent the wheel to support pricing and packaging in applications. Schematic offers the flexibility to launch, package, meter, and monitor features from one place, without the tax of architecting and maintaining homegrown systems.

Pricing and packaging sits within a $30B market that includes the tools to license, fulfill, and bill end customers. It faces significant challenges due to the consumerization of B2B SaaS that has led to evolving buying preferences and expectations, pressure on back office operations, and legacy tools that are difficult to implement, costly, and do not integrate well with modern tools and applications. This has led to fragmented, homegrown systems and processes that divert resources to maintain and delay growth initiatives.

Schematic believes that an integrated platform, rather than disconnected tools and processes, should support customers from purchase to feature delivery and the operators tasked with supporting them. The launch of Components extends Schematic’s value proposition with embeddable UI elements that deliver best-in-class purchasing experiences to SaaS customers.

Schematic’s co-founders Jasdeep Garcha, Benjamin Papillon, Giovanni Hobbins, and Fynn Glover are seasoned entrepreneurs with experience on many sides of this problem having most recently led Operations, Product, Growth, and Engineering functions at Automox, Twilio, and Relay Payments. They have previously built successful startups and bring their expertise to Schematic to address the evolving needs of B2B SaaS companies.

The company is launching with $4.8M in seed funding led by MHS Capital with participation from NextView Ventures, Active Capital, Atlanta Ventures, and the founders of LaunchDarkly, Salesloft, Salesforce Pardot, and Crowdstrike.

“The decision to back Schematic was easy, given the clear market need and the team’s proven track record. Schematic is poised for rapid growth by providing an integrated solution for SaaS pricing and packaging,” said Vijay Naggapan, partner with MHS Capital.

Schematic’s platform allows businesses to outsource pricing and packaging with a few lines of code, enabling them to quickly launch new packaging models, take the burden off of engineering almost entirely, and flexibly adjust their pricing and packaging to individual customer preferences. The product has been in beta for a year with customers ranging from early-stage startups to growth-stage scale-ups, all benefiting from the flexibility and control it provides.

“There should be a standard for how digital businesses operate pricing and packaging. Schematic provides that standard, eliminating fragmented systems that frustrate teams and slow down businesses,” said Fynn.

“Schematic has allowed us to manage entitlements and metering with ease, setting us up in just a few days,” said Daniel Chalef, CEO of Zep, an early-stage SaaS company that replaced manual processes with Schematic’s automation. By implementing Schematic Zep has adapted to customer demands for new offerings easily without major engineering investments.
