RADIX WikiRADIX Wiki

IdeoMaker was a no-code decentralised application platform for business, announced in 2017 and built on Radix by a small team working from Rotterdam and Brașov. The platform never launched. Its website has not been republished since 6 August 2021, the Log In and Sign Up controls still read “Coming soon with Alpha”, and the Roadmap, Blog, Brandbook, Papers, Developers, Partners and Documentation entries in its own navigation all point at nothing.

What is running is the team’s validator. Ideomaker Europe sits inside the Radix mainnet active set with 22.3 million XRD of delegated stake, and that operation – not the platform – is what the Active status on this page refers to. The sections below record the platform as its authors pitched it in 2021; Radix validator node and Status record what is on the ledger today.

Proposed services (2021 pitch)

The eight modules below are the platform as described on ideomaker.com, which has stood unchanged since August 2021. None of them was ever released; they are recorded here as the project’s stated design, not as available features.

  1. Interactive Planning: Ideomaker offers an intuitive visual planning interface for users to visualize the production process, from ideation to execution. This interactive planning system helps users manage product development and distribution efficiently, with a clear overview of all stages of the process.
  2. Global Reach: Ideomaker's geolocation features facilitate global collaboration. It uses smart matching algorithms to find potential partners based on diverse criteria such as pricing, delivery times, reputation, and quality. This ensures users can find the right support for development, distribution, or consultation, irrespective of location.
  3. Open Ledger: Ideomaker utilizes a Decentralised Open Ledger, allowing for full transparency in product development. Users can monitor every aspect of their product's lifecycle, including manufacturing, transportation, and delivery. This ledger also helps to confirm the authenticity of products, and gives all stakeholders transparent access to a tamper-proof database.
  4. IOT Connected: Ideomaker is designed to integrate and leverage Internet of Things (IoT) devices to enhance efficiency and reduce costs. This functionality prepares users for a future where automated tasks and services become the norm, and repetitive jobs are delegated to robots and other automated devices.
  5. Team Projects: Ideomaker provides a global network of professionals that users can interact with to form their product development teams. The platform offers secure and reliable communication tools for effortless collaboration and synchronization of teamwork.
  6. Automated Workflow: Ideomaker places a strong emphasis on automation. All its modules are designed to work together seamlessly, helping users improve manufacturing cycles, speed up delivery times, and reduce warehousing inefficiencies.
  7. Marketplace & Tools: Ideomaker offers a modular framework of specialized tools. Users can choose from existing tools or create their own based on their unique needs. This framework is designed for intuitive use and seamless interaction.
  8. In-App Store: Ideomaker features an in-app store for both end customers and businesses. Third-party developers can integrate their products and services into the store, which are then made interoperable across the whole platform without manual adjustments.

Payment and economics (as pitched)

The platform was to accept a native token alongside XRD, the native token of the Radix network it was built on. Gradually, various cryptocurrencies will be accepted to provide users with as many opportunities for expansion and adoption as possible. In addition to digital payments, Ideomaker plans to spread the adoption of its services via Card and NFC payments and POS systems.

Target audience (as pitched)

The platform was aimed at a wide range of creators, including designers, developers, freelancers, artists, small to big brands, or hobbyists. It also serves suppliers, both local and international, from small to large companies.

Team

IdeoMaker is run by a small team of entrepreneurs with design and software development skills. The team operates from Rotterdam, Netherlands and Brasov, Romania, and they are open to expanding it with other skilled professionals from all over the world. The known members of the team are Vlad Butucariu, who is responsible for UI, UX, Dapp Design, and Rares Lupascu, who is involved in Software Development.

Radix validator node

IdeoMaker has run a validator node since the Olympia mainnet launch on 28 July 2021, and the node outlived the platform it was meant to fund. On mainnet today it is Ideomaker Europe, validator_rdx1svfawmdwc77092hzhd6rzlay0tg4g8dw2sd37mu7skaqjlsq624rfa, whose on-ledger info_url metadata is ideomaker.com. The address printed on the project’s own node page, rv1qg923hl7f725cs06eg5gmdcy4pfvpa8mfnjcw669traquj28c96z5w0rld0, is in the Olympia format and has addressed nothing since the Babylon migration re-derived every address on the network.

Read live from the Radix Gateway at epoch 334878 on 14 August 2026, the validator is registered, accepts delegated stake, and holds 22,292,726.83 XRD – rank 47 of the 187 registered validators by stake, comfortably inside the top-100 active set. Of the 18,294,157.08 stake units issued against that pool, 154,199.34 sit in the validator’s owner-locked vault, so roughly 99% of the stake belongs to delegators rather than the operator. Over the trailing month it made 66,548 proposals and missed 8; across Babylon’s history it has been in the active set for 301,926 epochs and missed 10,454 proposals out of 3,102,119 assigned. The node is not neglected.

The fee is not the fee on the site

The node page on ideomaker.com advertises a 2% fee and devotes a section to justifying it, and the validator’s stored validator_fee_factor agrees: 0.02. That is not what delegators are charged. The same validator carries a validator_fee_change_request to 0.1 with epoch_effective 312139, an epoch that began on 27 May 2026. Once a change’s epoch has passed the engine charges the request and leaves the stored field alone until the owner asks for the next change, so Ideomaker Europe has taken 10% of its delegators’ emissions – five times the published figure – since late May.

Nothing here suggests concealment. A fee increase is a public transaction, it served the mandatory notice period of roughly 4,032 epochs before taking effect, and 10% is unremarkable among the network’s larger validators; what is stale is a marketing page nobody has touched in five years. The mechanism is described under Validator Nodes, and 64 of the 187 registered validators are in the same state at this epoch. RadixStake is the other case this wiki records in detail.

Status

The platform and the node have to be read separately, and the checks below were made on 14 August 2026.

  • The platform is finished. ideomaker.com returns normally, but the Webflow build comment in its markup reads Last Published: Fri Aug 06 2021. It is a five-page brochure – home, project, team, node, contact – whose remaining navigation goes nowhere, and whose Log In and Sign Up buttons have said “Coming soon with Alpha” for five years. The homepage staking widget still reports Staked XRD 0 Mil / Stakers 0 against a real balance of 22.3 million.
  • The community channels are still open. The Telegram group resolves with 109 members, and the Discord invite still resolves to the ideomaker server. Neither is an announcement channel, so neither dates the wind-down.
  • The node is live. See above: registered, in the active set, 8 missed proposals in a month.
  • The promotional video is gone. This page previously carried a bare link to youtu.be/3Wd-mxpU60M as its only citation; YouTube’s oEmbed endpoint returns 404 for that ID, and the link has been removed.

No wind-down was ever announced. What the record shows is a 2017 no-code platform that stopped being built somewhere in 2021, and a validator its team has kept in the active set ever since – which is the only reason an XRD holder is likely to encounter the name today.
