Ask HN: How to start a crowd funding campaign in 2018?
2 points by pouta on Dec 28, 2017 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
I'm thinking of starting a crowd funding campaign but platforms like Kickstarter don't work in my country. Can platforms like ethereum/counterparty/stellar be a solution for it?


Ethereum has been used to raise huge amounts of money, but almost solely for pre-orders of tokens of distributed protocols, which will potentially provide holders with utility. I don't know how successful a donation-based crowdfunding campaign, that doesn't provide contributors with anything of value in exchange, would be.
