Effective immediately, @BrightFunded is ending its affiliate partnership with @PropFirmMatch. We saw this come in this morning and ran our own investigation as well.
Affiliates put in the work: the content, the community, the trust. They deserve to be paid for every trader they send, not see that credit end up somewhere else.
Big shoutout to my friend @traderkane for digging into this and bringing it to light. He keeps standing up for the people who build this industry, and we’re with him on this one. Btw, Kane, Isn’t it supposed to work the other way around right before your birthday? We should be giving you a present.
The path of most resistance is underrated.
@jelle_dijkstra, @benjamingalindo, and I spent almost 4 years building BrightFunded without being active on social media. We were focused on building something that would last.
Every decision had a fast version and a slow version. We took the slow version almost every time.
Instead of licensing a platform from a technology provider, we hired our own developers and built ours from scratch.
From day one, the ambition was to build an industry leader. Getting there means having control over what we build, what we fix, and how quickly we respond to traders.
If you want to go far, you have to be willing to go slow at the start. We took on more work early so we could move faster on our own terms later.
We’re nowhere near done building. And the ambition goes beyond what you see today.
Figured it was time to join the conversation.

We've spent years building @BrightFunded with our head down and in silence as founders. That stops today.
From now on, @SybDijkstra, @benjamingalindo, and I are sharing the founder story out loud. The wins, the challenges, the behind the scenes.
Same on YouTube, first videos are already up:
