ok so i still need as clear of an answer as possible on this point.
So I will not interpret anything and only release funds if that is what my customers wish. Do you agree to these terms?
my understanding from what you wrote is that these terms are agreeable but in my line of work clear cut yes or no's are very important.
alright than just one word as answer: yes
wonderful. i think my customers will like these terms very much

exactly the point!
the goal of having escrow is to ensure that the funds successfully go to where they rightfully belong to. I suppose that it should work the same way as any other escrow services done out there.
So you show us the working product on the 22nd, Anon will give you the funds.
If you are trying to scam people here, Anon will give us back the funds.
it is that simple.
regarding exo allocation for the early adopters, you can postpone the release date to 23rd of Feb to use the extra day for fund allocation, trusting that the escrowed funds will definitely be transferred through.
OR you can change the 1st phase investment deadline to 21st if u insist on having it launched on the 22nd.
The point here is, if all of the investors can trust Anon (or whatever trusted escrow service providers here) that they will be impartial and do the right thing; then you could trust them too.
Really if your product is cool for real then having a proper ipo with escrow will make it perfect
