Hopefully you are able to reach your goal Diego. This is the first thing I have ever backed.

Thanks a lot for this!

Can you please Support these guys so Utopian can have an impressive project in their portfolio?

And the crowd said, 'pull the plug',...

The parts that can swim won't sink.
The crowd won't let them.

Wish I could help with more than a resteem and sharing this on other platforms.

Every small bit helps. Thanks @acidyo!

@elear is amazing and dedicated to the Utopian vision. Utopian has provided so much for so many and has really enhanced the Steem ecosystem. Hopefully higher Crypto prices will help Utopian achieve its goals.

Thanks Andrew!

Im glad you improved upon the perks but that is still too little im afraid.

I didnt want to be overly critical right off the bat and i wanted to wait and see how this would turn out.
It basically turned out as i expected.

The problem you have is that the campaign was very poorly thought out.
The marketing team did an extremely poor job of understanding what the targeted market segment for Utopian is, and when you dont understand who your target audience is then its clear that you will not understand how to attract their attention, what their needs are or how to get them to support the project.

The thing is that no matter how amazing people might think Utopian is... the ecosystem is such that you cannot rely on "charity" for funding. Especially when the prices are so low.
Ask yourself why SteemMonsters had such a successful crowdfund?

The best you can hope for right now, imo, is if some charitable whale drops a few thousand dollars for some "reputation". (I would target the vanity of a few whales that are known to show off the depth of their pocket.)

In the future, if you repeat this campaign, the first questions you should ask yourself is:

Is the person giving us money getting something he perceives as having equal value in return and is there a demand for what wer offering.

If the answer is:

Well they get to feel nice for helping us...

Then your campaign will fail.

To end this off... Create a token and do what SteemHunt did. Shouldnt be hard to create a token economy for Utopian.
Utopian is a superior project to SteemHunt and the only obstacle i see existing is if you decided to claim some kind of moral highground and not do a ICO, IEO.
Thats really the only way for you to get a significant sum to fund your project.

Good luck.

Hello @lordbutterfly and thanks for your feedback. As I have said elsewhere the Indiegogo campaign is more of a chance for Utopian to be known and to reach a wider audience as at the moment we are quite in the dark compared to other platforms that have a similar concept. We haven't opted for a token sale yet as we believe that is not really in line with what we are trying to achieve, not mentioning the legal costs we couldn't cover at this moment.

I am happy the perks look better than before as lots of work went on them. These perks will have an equal value in return of the investment when the platform will gain enough traction, which is something we hope to achieve with the campaign.

We haven't opted for a token sale yet as we believe that is not really in line with what we are trying to achieve, not mentioning the legal costs we couldn't cover at this moment.

I would love if Utopian succeeds. It has everything set up for that already.
I cant speak about the legal fees as i do not have sufficient information but i cant emphasize enough the necessity for a token economy on Utopian if Utopian wants to succeed. There is no escaping that.
Being "shy" will not get you far and will only lead to STEEM losing a potentially huge project.
Utopian can be for STEEM what BTT is for TRON. Maybe not on that scale but can have a similar impact on their respective chains.
Just a bit more decisiveness is needed.

Here's a comment that sets @utopian-io as 100% beneficiary...because well, I'm a tiny stakeholder and my one vote doesn't do anything.

I will try my best and resteem but I wish to help more and more . But no too much STEEM POWER.

how would the £26,551 you are after be spent. maybe a detailed breakdown might help you gather more fans? i know personally anything i've ever invested in i've always wanted to see how the money was spent.

Hello @teamhumble, thanks for your interest. As detailed in the campaign, the funds will be used to complete the development of Utopian Colony, which is exactly the minimum budget we need to pay the expenses for the development efforts. Anything extra will help us reach a wider audience and build more. I can definitely make that more obvious and more visible in the contents. Thanks for your feedback

no worries. i think that will go a long way 'minimum budget we need to pay the expenses for the development efforts' is a little vague ya know? when it comes to fund raising and your not inside the echo chamber of using the platform people on the outside want to know more. hope it helps man, all the best, tweeted and resteemed.

Sure. I'll make sure that is implemented. Thanks!

you need money by loan of bank
