  no doubt that a crowdfunding platform adapting to the rise in cryptocurrency interest makes sense! but i'm personally excited to see how spectacularly this fails due to bad leadership https://twitter.com/...

  Very excited to never feel obligated to back a half-baked KS idea ever again. If only they had done this before I bought that Pebble watch, think of the savings! https://twitter.com/...

  Kickstarter saw that the people who backed the failed crypto crowdfunding project to buy a copy of the U.S. Constitution had all their refund money eaten up by fees and said “this looks like a good business model!” https://twitter.com/...

  The incredible thing about this article is that it drops this paragraph as an example of a crypto investment similar to a kickstarter. In fact, it's an example of how it's going to screw over small-dollar backers. (Source: Forbes, linked in next tweet) https://twitter.com/... htt…

  NFTs projects anymore are basically speculative kickstarter campaigns anyways, might as well capture some of those sweet royalties and platform fees. https://twitter.com/...

  Here at Kickstarter we've heard your complaints that too often the chances of getting your money's worth when you support project or idea are woefully inconsistent. That changes today. Moving forward, we can guarantee with 100% certainty you will NEVER get your money's worth. htt…
