With Kickstarter's amazing success at bringing CrowdFunding into the capital markets mainstream
via Main Street, its massive and diverse projects, its virtually
limitless number of project sponsors (lining up at the doors to
cyberspace), large sums of capital raised and innumerable contributors,
it had to happen. Kickstarter's high profile and financial success have
made it a target for lawsuits galore
from disgruntled contributors who never received refunds of their money
from failed or abandoned projects, despite the fact that the crowdfunding platform is not (read its Terms Of Service - or, for that matter, read virtually any crowdfunding portal's
Terms Of Service) liable as a fiduciary for any return of project funds
under any circumstances. Yet, the lawsuits are rolling in.
