    Of course, this goes unsaid. It's just not enough to help the campaign in the next three weeks.

    It appears that we will hit the target, I am in but yet to fund up to my chosen level.

    - per the Q&A on the seed site -

    "The number listed above is the amount of money "through the funnel", there is a substantial amount IN the funnel awaiting to be confirmed before it can show on this web site. We believe we can and will make this goal!!!" RG

    That's the maximum deal size. The target to fund the deal is 500,000. But, I'm guessing you know that and I'm just taking your bait.

    I read it differently. They want 2 million (which would then be the goal) but the minimum to keep the invested money is 500.000 dollars.

    The $2 million is the amount they're offering.

    It means that even if someone was willing to drop 10 billion, there are only $2 million worth of stock being offered. That's why it says "2 million total round size" and not "goal" next to the words "2 million".

    Are people withdrawing from SeedInvest? I thought that there was an amount of 304.000 Dollars pledged yesterday. Earlier today it was definitely 302.000 and now it is 301.000...

    I guess it's all a matter of perspective whether it's going up or down. The last time I looked it was at 243K. Now it's over 300K. Unless the poles have changed, that looks like UP to me :p

    Until it closes, you are permitted to alter (up or down) or even fully back out of an investment. That some will have hardships come up before closing and have to back out isn't unexpected.

    If you've started the processes and still intend to be an investor, be sure to finish up the questions they send you. It's not actually complete (and if if closes in that limbo state, you will not be invested) until you do that.

    The fluctuations are most likely due to increasing an investment, due to the same things as I described earlier within my own increase in investment.
    :eek: "You must pull out what has been invested, in order to increase what's being put back in" :confused:

    o_O $_,000,000.00 :confused:?' :D~TL~

    Or you can message them and just ask to have the amounts consolidated, and they will notify Port so you get the perk level according to total investment.

    Anyway that's what I did :)

    No need to withdraw funds
