Comment: It is highly unlikely that a startup 'business' with no revenue, no funding, no staff, etc. would be notable. Come back when you have your millionth user.While awaiting response to the COI query, I'm pretty sure this is the founder writing about something they cooked up ONEDAY.The sources don't come even close to establishing notability per WP:NCORP, and most of the content is unreferenced.To avoid further reviewer time being expended on this, I am now rejecting rather than merely declining this draft.

Comment: The problem isn't that there isn't enough content, it's that it isn't adequately sourced, and the sources do not show that there's enough about it in independent sources to write an article. If you can find a couple independent news articles or other published sources, that would be a good start. Rusalkii (talk) 23:00, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

Linkspreed is a decentralized multinational technology and entertainment startup headquartered in Germany. Its mission is to decentralize the entire internet and build a new technology sector. Linkspreed's portfolio ranges from decentralized social networks to cloud applications and Social Networks as a Serivce.
The startup was founded in August 2020 by German student Marc Herdina. Since the launch date it grew to 200.000 daily active users and is creating further decentralized web applications for every internet usage.
On the Linkspreed website today, the company actively offers its software as a license by expanding into the Social Networks as a Service sector, similar to SaaS.
History
[edit]Linkspreed was found on August 2nd in 2020 in Bavaria, Germany. Founder and developer Marc Herdina, who still visited school, created the first social network based on music streaming.[1]
Soundchest was the first network, that was launched by the young startup and didn't grow fast by that time. In the early stage of the company, Linkspreed saved bandwith costs while using free domains and shared hosting from Dreamhost, an American based hosting provider.
In 2024, the company announced via X and LinkedIn that the two brands, Linkspreed and Web4, are registered with the DPMA (German Patent and Trademark Office).
Financial background
[edit]Linkspreed is still an unfunded german startup. The company didn't make any revenue in 2022 and offers their users a so called Free & Unlimited plan. Customers can enjoy all tools without any charge and act infinity without any boundaries from Linkspreed. Linkspreed is still bootstrapped to date. There have been no funding rounds. The company regularly posts on X, stating that this approach ensures independence from third parties. Crunchbase has not recorded any funding rounds for the startup.
Open Source
[edit]Linkspreed is not an open source based startup, but is commiting changelogs and documentations on Github. The startup announced to further support open source developers in 2023, in a october tweet.
