I actually pitched this exact idea to YC and was part of W20 - but I very quickly pivoted away from it.
If anyone is wondering about this, the basic business challenge you have to solve is being in the right place at the right time. This kind of thing is very sticky once its in place, and most startups don't realize the complexity in the domain early enough for a stand-alone service to make sense to them.
I think as far as startups in this space go, the best path forward would be to nurture an open source project in the long term.
I ended up open sourcing my work after the pivot here: https://github.com/affiga/scaledger https://github.com/affiga/scaledger

- andriosr 6y agoThanks so much! Didn't know them, I will reach out. Do you know if they completely shut it down?
