Great article @didic!

It can be very hard to run a crowdfunding campaign, and yes, there can be many blows to the psyche. We tried to run one some years back to raise the necessary funds for legal fees to make our organization a formal non-profit educational foundation - it was very (sadly!) telling how all the people who were eternally lining up to get something and giving us encouragement mysteriously vanished into the night when asked to materially contribute to the very thing giving them benefit.

Now we're circumventing the whole crowdfunding issue by trying "a year on Steemit" instead and seeing if we can rise the money "one upvote at a time" instead.
