Yea Right/ 4 people pedged an average of $ 375,250.00 each, 100 %
It COULD be that while those 4 were putting in their initial pledges of $1,000, several others upped their placeholder $250 pledges up to $10,000... no having wanted to pledge that much unless this thing looked like it might happen. Once the numbers started rising fast, they went back and upped their initial spot-holder. I said "COULD be"... ;)

Maybe StartEngine is trying to confirm those last reservations. Reg A+ is a new type of deal; they are probably trying to make sure they are not being spoofed.

I hope people are being legit. If Elio supporters are "fudging" the numbers, it will do more harm than good if it doesn't turn into actual cash.
I absolutely do not believe half-million dollar "pledges." The investment is way too risky for that kind of money, unless you're a true believer. Also, the max amount you can pledge in this solicitation is limited by law to 10% of your net worth (not counting your house) or 10% of your annual income. So a $500,000 pledge is automatically unacceptable and fake.
