NFT-based Projects can Now Launch a Fundraising Campaign on Meta Yield!
We are very excited to announce that Mintbase and Meta Yield are partnering to increase and expand the utility of projects’ NFTs. It will be now possible for such a project to launch a fundraising campaign on Meta Yield and offer NFTs to their financial backers!
Projects will mint their NFTs on Mintbase and make them available exclusively as rewards for their backers on Meta Yield. The NFTs will be awarded to the financial supporters of the project, depending on the amount of stNEAR locked.
This new collaboration opens up a whole new world of fundraising opportunities for pure NFT-based projects or projects that prefer to “give away” NFTs instead of tokens to their financial supporters.
Additionally, this partnership also enables Meta Yield to address a whole new segment of the NEAR community, more focused on NFTs and looking to access exclusive NFT collections.
NEAR is in a unique technological position to push the boundaries of NFTs. There is a lot of quality and innovation in the ecosystem, but projects need funding to thrive. This partnership between Metayield and Mintbase is opening new ways for the NEAR community to support their favorite projects and get access to exclusive NFTs.
We are very happy and thrilled to bring this never-seen-before unique fundraising mechanism and opportunity to the NEAR ecosystem!

Meta Yield: Lossless Staking Rewards-based Fundraising Platform
Meta Yield, the only lossless staking rewards-based crowdfunding launchpad on NEAR was launched in May 2022. Meta Yield leverages Meta Pool’s liquid staking protocol.
This was the kick-start of the creation of a one-of-a-kind NEAR launchpad enabling:
- financial backers to mint the project’s tokens with their staking rewards, not their crypto assets
- project to stay in control of the price of their tokens (unlike in an IDO) by defining their own vesting terms
Meta Yield works with 4 simple steps:
- Backers lock stNEAR to financially support crypto-based projects
- Projects only earn staking rewards (~10%) of what backers commit, not the underlying crypto assets
- Backers earn projects’ tokens in exchange for their financial support
- Backers recover 100% of their underlying crypto assets at the end of the locking period
What’s Next?
This partnership is coming just in time for our next series of projects slated to release on Meta Yield: keep your eyes on our social media for more details about what’s next!
