And 5513 was such a nice sounding number!
I must agree, that's a good thing. Maybe the site was hacked or? what-ever, this more realistic.
They could also have implemented a limit too.

That is a big ego crush, for a web site however, to get a wild goose chase on your site.

My Dr Pepper is not lost yet!

You're making me thirsty.

I consider the obvious reevaluation of the pledges to be a good thing .... I also have little doubt that with folks out there who appear to be trying to mess up the process, future evaluations will probably be in order .... sounds like good management to me

I agree. Looks like StartEngine is doing it's due diligence.

Glad to see it, but I still don't believe it. The average investment is now $4167, which is conceivable, but not exactly crowd sourcing. If the 23 million were spread among ten to fifteen thousand investors, I'd have a lot more faith in the reality of the pledges.

So does that look like they dumped all the apparent $125k and up jumps?

Looks like they've weeded out the BS investers. This is a good thing!!

a good thing indeed if there was only a couple of million in bogus pledges .... I was thinking that the total would be considerably higher

Maybe -- but I think they should challenge everything over 25K

I think, looking at Lily May's chart, that there are still a million or so in bogus investments to weed out. If our gang here is running something over $3K on average, and we're the true believers, an average of $4.1K per investor at large is pretty darn high.
