Check out Marc Andreesson while your at it. @nicklambert embarrassing the Godfather of the Internet gets spelled wrong on your pitch. The BNK folk need a better proof reader.

Did Nick say somewhere burn rate was about 80K per month prior to the new hires. So this after further expanding the team is what a years funding?

What happen if the 2MĀ£ is not achieve?
investor are refund?
Good question Savage. I was very impressed by the pitches, but was hoping to get a bit more colour on future capital needs and a few expense numbers too (they do talk quite a bit about potential revenue), but I suspect Bank to the Future is the appropriate site to discuss this not this forum.

Is it safe to invest before 12th? if search for the investment itās not displayed.
and is it really necessary to send picture and address before invest?
I invested two days ago and all went well. On the pitch forum (visible after investing) someone also mentioned the investment not showing up in their portfolio. Bank to the Future responded that it will show once it officially launches on Monday.
So any investment done now will be the same as when you invest on Monday. Only difference is that you are a 100% sure you will be in before the target has been reached. To be honest though I think you wonāt miss out either way, since as of now only 4% of the goal has been met.
As for the address and ID Iām not sure.
So perhaps you donāt need it. I thought it was necessary, but perhaps the rules have changed since I signed up. Not sure if @sfultong invested or perhaps just backed the pitch. Both options are available and choosing the latter will not give you any shares in the company, itās just a donation because you like the pitch and want to support it without getting anything (except gratitude) in return.

That would suck if it were not his intention 
I made an inquiry to bnktothefuture support about photo ID for investing (not backing) in maidsafe on bnktothefuture
The response I received seems to indicate the importance of getting photo ID
[quote]Thank you for your email.
- You can invest without a photo iD
- Your shares and rewards (if that is an option) will not be allocated; if iDās are not verified
- iDs - are necessary for returns (in case a pitch you invested in, did not succeed and your monies need to be returned)
Whatever pitch you invest in and whatever their company compliance and regulations are - iD upload on the BF platform is mandatory.

Loving the new video! It needed an update.
My mum is also in btw 
At nearly 70 years old bitcoin/maid and poloniex were a bit beyond her, but using a debit card was a 5 minute job.
She has no idea what she bought intoā¦ her exact words were, āwell, I like the nameā.

The new video is very good indeed, much better than the previous one. Looks more professional, so good to get that one in for the pitch on Bank to the Future. Really curious to see how the pitch will do the next few days, fingers crossed!

The new video looks cool indeed. But is it me: at 0:34 I really hear āthe trade of illicit drunksā instead of āthe trade of illicit drugsā.
I hear ādrugsā basically. (Also, cool videoā¦! First to like it on YT page.)
Haha yeah I guess the word could have been pronounced somewhat more clearly, but I think people will know that she means drugs and not drunks. As far as I know thereās not a big market for illicit drunks

Yeah, I invested (but it doesnāt matter so much, I just want the project to succeed). I guess Iāll have to provide my ID when the fundraising completes and I want to claim my shares.

only 5% so far ā¦
The minimum amount needed for the pitch to be a success is half of the target, so weāre 10% towards the minimum and 5% towards the target amount.
