I realize it's a relatively new financing technique but I wonder if there is any history of it's success. Has any successful start-up gotten its initial financing this way? I tend to think it's tried only when, as feitsbob put it; " Crowd financing is when a Bank loan wont touch the Idea.. ". Has it ever worked?
