Dear Minds Investors, We are blown away with the response to this equity crowdfunding campaign. We are currently in the final stages of a 2-year financial audit and will be sharing that as soon as it's completed. We can state with confidence that we will be filing to close this round by the end of the year, if not sooner. At that point, you'll receive a communication to confirm your investment and join the Minds family. Here are some notable updates about what we have been up to:Live-streaming alpha launch has been exciting. We did a viral debate on UFO/UAP with Destiny, Michael Shermer, James Fox, Daniel Pinchbeck and Bill Ottman which received half a million views going viral across many networks. Supermind (Paid replies) is proving to be a powerful viral content generator and retention tool. Check out a recent exclusive Minds video from The Quartering which he created as a reply to a Supermind Offer and brought thousands of people over to see. You may also have received an email offer from us prompting various Supermind questions in exchange for tokens (which can be redeemed for views). We recommend replying to these to become eligible for increased rewards and perks in the future. Revamp to Minds+ and Minds Pro is coming soon which includes a massive new value proposition for customers: You get the value of your membership in Boost Credits each renewal period. This means that if you pay $50/month for Minds Pro you get $50 worth of free Boosts (Promotion) on Minds. You can just tap the Boost button and they will appear in checkout. This works hand in hand with the new open market bidding system we built into Boost and is far superior value than what people get from something like YouTube or X Premium. You will get many thousands of views on your content by nature of being a Minds+ or Pro member. Decentralization is a major focus for us and we have new integrations with both Nostr and the Fediverse (ActivityPub) coming very soon. This means that Minds creators will be able to engage with users on Pleroma, Mastodon, PeerTube and any other ActivityPub enabled server. This delivers on our goal of interoperability and will massively expand the size of our network. Please contact info@minds.com with any issues or concerns. We will be sharing more updates here later this month as these updates go live. Thank you so much for being part of Minds and fighting for a free and open internet.
