Congrats Kenton. Your exploration into enterprise makes sense for getting financial resources to pursue open source consumer goals. I am glad I got opportunity to back your campaign. All the best.

Congrats Kenton and all involved, and best of luck with the business model. Financial success is important for decentralization tech to make progress. I hope enterprises take interest.

This is great news. As someone who pitched in to their campaign I am grateful that they have this funding so their efforts don't just fizzle out from lack of resources. It's a big undertaking, and they're going to need to push hard for a long time.

Can VCs and angels get the T-shirts and stickers, and the early investors get stock?

    I know you're joking, but honestly if it were legal (and easy) to crowdfund stock sales I would totally have been up for that. :)

The way they're paying it forward is great. Nicely done.
