How is the project going, how much money is raised?
Does their website display that info somewhere? I don't see it.
There was an article on Medium which someone shared in this thread - they did say this info.
I just found the article that nicely explains the situation.So basicly,pre ico was sold out ($36M),and since there was more than 250000 interested investors,they decdied to organise airdrop.Full article with better explanation is here https://www.icoexaminer.com/ico-news/current-announces-4-million-airdrop-lieu-cancelled-token-sale/
Great share, thank you! They had to make such decisions on the fly as there was a whole new situation with the pre ico being sold out and all. But it's better for them and the project that it's like this and not the other way around.
