Accelerating dApp creation on Cardano

Genius X, a go-to business accelerator program and launchpad for Cardano-based projects, is expanding its partnership with Maestro.

Maestro is one of Genius X’s partner projects and is an Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) platform that simplifies complexities associated with the Extended Unspent Transaction Output (EUTxO) architecture of the Cardano blockchain. Using Maestro’s services, dApp developers can build, deploy and scale their dApps safely and quickly.

Genius X has partnered with over a dozen Cardano projects, actively providing code auditing, legal, marketing, and technical assistance. By partnering with Maestro, Genius X can now additionally assist approved startups by providing access to a suite of tools and services to help them fundraise and launch dApps on Cardano.

Genius X collaboration with Maestro provides an option for projects to raise funds through Maestro’s Initial Stake Pool Offering (ISPO) Deployment Platform and receive more exposure from the ISPO marketplace. ADA holders don’t have to shuffle through tabs, searching for potent Cardano projects to invest in. Instead, the Maestro Marketplace and dashboard is a primary source of information for completed, active, and upcoming ISPOs.

Following the expansion of its partnership with Genius X, Maestro will now provide additional services, besides the ISPO Deployment platform, to partners under the business accelerator program. Projects will also access blockchain developer tools for building and scaling dApps on Cardano. These tools include powerful sets of APIs to interact with smart contracts, wallets and the blockchain. Developers will gain access to indexed blockchain historical data and live tracking of on-chain activity, such as transactions and UTxO creation. Maestro’s dApp Composer will also provide fully managed whitelabel dApps, such as NFT minting, token distribution and crypto payments. These can be easily integrated into any website to supercharge your application with Web3 features.

The current Genius X partnership with Maestro is a big success. Maestro was in charge of the successful Genius Yield ISPO and is currently managing the Genius X ISPO that will end on September 12, 2022 (Epoch 363). Iagon, one of Genius X’s approved projects building a regulatory compliant and shared storage economy, and SCAT DAO (a Decentralized Autonomous Organization that reinvents the way audits are selected, performed and financed) also leverage Maestro’s ISPO Deployment Platform in its ongoing crowdfunding.

Expanding the existing partnership with Maestro represents a natural step toward fulfilling Genius X’s mission of fostering innovation and development in the rapidly growing Cardano ecosystem. Maestro developer tools and services will be critical for projects part of the accelerator program, especially once Cardano upgrades via the Vasil hard fork, improving network performance and scalability. By the early second half of 2022, over 1,000 projects were building on Cardano, some under Genius X.
