April 1st of this year.
Will 2-3 still on the way to being funded so in total 5-6 projects successfully funded. In 4 months not to shabby but you are right it will take some major project to come onto the platform to really put it on the map.
I have seen some KS projects move to indiegogo and vice versa, in addition to accepting paypal pledges after they've been funded. The bitcoinstarter + kickstarter option is a good idea here too. I was mainly interested in supporting our new electronic currency and using bitcoinstarter seemed like the best avenue for that (in addition to hosting another non-paper-currency payment method on my site).
Welcome! Right, there seems to be some cross-over so wouldn't surprise me if Bitcoin is made an option also. I'm all about supporting new electronic currency!
