Hi,
I had some ideas about some Programming projects (related to Bitcoin) where we make Crowfunding and ask from a trusted programmer/coder around here to do that project for x amount of Money/BTC . (Escrow going to be used of course).
So I was wondering what the forum rules says about the Crowfunding exactly ? are they allowed ? if yes on what section they should be posted.

I think it's allowed. In my understanding a crowfunding thread could be hosted in Marketplace's child boards with the most appropriate depending on the terms of crowfunding project. Also Project Development could be appropriate. Bitcoin Discussion should be use as a residual choice.

No.

Marketplace is for buying, selling or trading of goods (physical and digital).

As mentioned before, It should go into:
Bitcoin Forum > Bitcoin > Project Development

You can look at this project as reference:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5773295

I confirm my position since Marketplace's child boards like Goods or Services could fit a Rewards Crowdfunding initiative because entrepreneurs pre-sell a product or service to launch a business concept without incurring debt or sacrificing equity/shares. Equity Crowdfunding could fit in Lending or Securities boards since it involve the offering of Securities and investments.
I think the technical details of the project being crowfunded could be hosted in Project Development, however.

"No hiring" I'am getting confused to be honest . So I can get explain my project on that section also getting crowfunding but to hire the developer who is going to do that job shouldn't be in that section ? Services then I guess ?

~ Madness

Yes for both. Telling someone to do something will be in Services.

For me, it is not really a crowdfunding.

So it is allowed by the forum rules and there is nothing wrong with it ? I don't want to open a thread then get red flagged or warning from Administrations or anynthing simillar to be honest .

~ Madness

AFAIK it is allowed. I have seen people creating threads about crowdfunding.

Project Development - Organization of Bitcoin and related projects (sites, software not yet developed/in development), bounty campaigns, advertising etc. No hiring here although "looking for partners" threads should be here.

I think you could use cross-linking the distinct thread of each part of your project: e.g. Crowfunding thread, Hire Developer thread, etc. I don't think this would be too burdensome.

AFAIK Project Development. Alternatively, you can use Bitcoin as well as fiat crowdfunding and put the links in the thread you create with details about the project.

~ Madness

Why would it not be allowed? You can try crowdfund but I doubt whether you'll get much interest. Google 'bitcoin crowd funding' as I believe there are a few specialist sites for doing so.

Well I don't know mate , I haven't been here on the forums that long like most of Bitcoiners so I'am asking Grin

don't want to break the rules
