Bitmark investment

Also, don't forget that the future of GetMarked is totally open ended at this point and once the core is built the potential can really start being unlocked. As people get involved in GetMarked as a separate-but-linked system to Bitmark it might be able to be used to generate profits in other ways. See www.flattr.com for a similar example of some potential that can even be exceeded conisdering micropayments are the future of the web. And Bitcoin itself is a complete failure thus far in the microtransaction arena, and it's not going to get better anytime soon since transaction fees are just going to get worse.

Flattr has been funded 2.1m already by investors(http://www.crunchbase.com/organization/flattr ) so some smart people obviously see the potential that's there. Flattr removed the option to tip in bitcoin a while ago so the door is wide open right now.

I understand that. And I agree. I've just prefered the crowdfunding was made on a proper platform, outside this thread, with visibility outside the community, with all the details, goals, timmings about the development process, aswell the funders rewards or prizes stated so everybody could understand what we're aiming and when should we expect to have the basic system ready to enter production stage. Like any other crowdfunding project, I mean

Exactly, I said same before. Make it avaliable for people outside the Bitcointalk.org
Create campaign here http://coinfunder.com/ or here http://coinfunder.com/ or both.
Dev said that some % of donators BTC will be used as an investment for them, so they will get Bitmark in return. So such an campaign can be a first (or one of first?) in crowdfunding services that also will become an investment for every donator which is more attractive by definition.
