And, I would say it worked. The campaign brought in 1.5 million dollars according to the post. If only one-third of that had been invested in BTC in late 2016 when it was selling for less than $1000, it would equal about 30 million dollars today. Even if Maidsafe’s administrative expenses were covered by part of that during the last 6 1/2 years, that would still leave a tidy sum in the bank. By that measure it was ultra-successful.

The actual facts were, total raised was under £500K. There was a much larger offer that fell apart what would have taken it over $1.5mm.

However, the monies were used as cashflow to keep the company going. It was not something to invest until BTC went sky high. All such pondering don’t tell us anything.

So this may be true, but not what happened, unfortunately, and if it had happened then the team would be much larger and grants much more common.
