Ask HN: Have you ever grown a hackathon project into a company?
I'm in a hackathon right now and the unexpected just happened:
Our team's project somehow transacted over $5,000 in one day.
We have very mixed feelings about this.
On one side it's a dream. On the other side, it's a "now what?" moment: Do we continue to grow NutFund.co or do we return to our jobs?
Has anyone in the HN community built a company out of a hackathon project?
Was it with the same team?
Did you drop your job and focus on it right away, or treat it as a side project for a while?
Any advice is highly appreciated, thank you from team NutFund.co
