SeedList aims to evolve the crypto fundraising landscape with a large-scale, institutional-grade platform that prioritizes meaningful contributors, including KOLs and engaged retail participants, by leveraging AI-driven merit-based allocation and a strategic partner network.

Singapore – SeedList, a next-generation Web3 capital formation platform described as the “Robinhood” of token fundraising, today announced its official launch. The company introduces an evolved approach to early-stage digital asset fundraising, one that expands on the pioneering work of industry leaders such as CoinList, Republic, and TokenSoft, while focusing on non-U.S. markets and decentralizing access to capital.

By prioritizing contributions over capital, SeedList seeks to empower founders and communities alike, aligning incentives through an AI-powered merit-based allocation system. Its curated approach aims to bring transparency, scale, and broader participation to a fast-growing sector that continues to attract global attention.

Retail Participation: The Next Frontier in Web3 Fundraising

Innovative institutional crypto crowdfunding platforms have helped shape the crypto fundraising landscape, enabling dozens of successful token launches and setting high standards for legal compliance, scale, and onboarding. However, as the sector matures, there is growing demand for platforms that further decentralize participation, giving strategic contributors and communities earlier access to promising projects.

“While institutional funding has played a critical role in scaling early crypto ecosystems, and leaders such as CoinList & Binance Launchpad have pushed the limits of investor empowerment, many retail participants still lack access to early-stage opportunities,” said Rosa Pagani, SeedList Co-Founder. “SeedList was designed to complement the existing infrastructure by re-centering the value equation around the people who build, support, and grow these ecosystems, such as KOLs, developers, and power users.”

A New Model of Contributor-Led Crowdfunding

“We’re seeing a generational shift in how communities want to engage with early-stage Web3 projects,” said Brijesh Patel, SeedList Co-Founder. “Our mission is to build on the groundwork laid by industry leaders while offering a more inclusive and contributor-driven alternative. That means emphasizing measurable value, technical input, community-building, and genuine participation, rather than limiting access to a narrow group of capital providers.”

SeedList’s platform enables access to Seed and Pre-Seed stages of high-potential crypto projects, helping ensure aligned incentives and long-term sustainability. By targeting underserved regions and regulatory-light jurisdictions, SeedList opens new doors for founders and participants looking for transparent, fair, and scalable capital formation options.

Market Momentum

The crypto fundraising sector has seen rapid growth in recent years. Platforms such as CoinList, Republic, Binance Launchpad, and TokenSoft have launched successful projects including Solana, Filecoin, Near, and Flow. In 2024–2025, the pace has accelerated with multi-platform launches like WalletConnect ($10M raised across CoinList, Binance Launchpad, and Echo) and plans to launch over 100 projects in the coming year.

“SeedList builds on this momentum by introducing a meritocratic layer powered by AI, designed to identify and reward authentic engagement,” said CryptoSheldon, Co-Founder. “Our international focus, combined with a deeply vetted network of KOLs and partners, positions SeedList as a natural evolution of the Web3 capital stack.”

SeedList’s Differentiated Model

SeedList distinguishes itself through three key pillars:

Merit-Based Allocation – Proprietary AI that dynamically adjusts allocation based on technical contributions, community-building, and engagement
Retail Empowerment – Early access and fair pricing for non-institutional contributors, including KOLs and micro-influencers
International Scope – A global-first platform focused on regulatory-efficient jurisdictions, with KYC-required onboarding
