Crowdfunding = pretty word for IPO
i would never get involved with any Crowdfunding / Kickstarter type of crap !
and in crypto it's a way to get Bitcoin to pad your bank account and don't tell me otherwise lol
when you have 400 grand in your bank account and your movie needs 200 grand trust me you will keep taking donations

money.
corrupts.
take the recent BFL FTC court case for example.. they could so they did because people will.
staff asked BFL management why they don't do burn in's on the test-net and the boss said "because that doesn't make them any money"
the FTC has frozen their business operations and they have admitted their guilt.. the mined for coins with IPO'd asics.
because they could..
you want something ? get a job and pay for it.. don't ask me to pay for it for you .
Let us say Crowdfunding = pretty word for IPO. The average IPO costs around $500,000...creating a NXT asset or ("Crowdfunding" as you say) currently costs $28.40=1,000 NXT.
