My first $ as an indie hacker

IMG: https://ibb.co/LY3Y3PH

Today, I am very happy to announce that I got my first dolars as an indie hacker. I just opened stripe and was astonished to see 130 USD on my balance. I must say I will take a small chunk from this MRR, around 2%, but having my project idea validated is super exciting.

This is the 4th project that I have launched, having an absoulte $0 in the first 3, so I received the news with happiness and excitement.

If the project keeps growing, I will report here the revenue as well as the journey, so stay tuned :)

    Must be a great feeling seeing that first payment! Are you still keeping any of the other 3 projects going?

      Yes it is an amazing feeling! And I am keeping 2 of those 3 projects still, because they don't have any costs attached. Those are:

      https://t.me/soy_aerobot -> Telegram bot to track a flight price so you can get the cheapest deal (only in Spanish)

      https://givebtc.tips/SendMoneyToTheFuture/ -> Send Bitcoin to your future self with this simple web app

        Nice, and it's great that they're not costing you anything either. I wish you all the best!

    What's the product/service ?

      I automated DCA (dollar cost averaging) to look more like a simple subscription plan. Basically the user will get at the end of each month the desired amount of bitcoin. You can try it at https://givebtc.tips/SubsCrypto/
