Top 5 most funded Kickstarter campaigns via Kickbooster February 2018

What makes crowdfunding amazing is that you never know what to expect when you choose the never mind pill and go to the rabbit hole at warp drive speed.

One thing is for sure this is not for faint-hearted people, to many is a one time deal and the life course is different from the first move.

Crowdfunding is for visionaries, for first movers, conformity shakers and natural born leaders living from the heart space and moving the society up not forward.

Keeping an eye and having a closer look at the startups' arena we love to bring to the public attention things that sometimes in such a daily routine hurry make us indifferent when we go or click to purchase this and that, here and there.

What we perceive with the eyes is the physical expression of a dream, inspiration, vision, and sacrifice and we need to keep and fan the flame of those who dare to be different.


#1 Använda. A Great F*cking Bag

US$ 980,334 pledged of $12,000 goal
8,839 backers
7935% funded

Använda is a word in Swedish. Because that’s where we are right now. It’s nice out here. You should come visit. The country- not us, we’re busy that weekend.

Använda means ‘to use’ in Swedish. Now you can seem smart when you’re explaining where you got your awesome new bag to that girl on the bus who’s way out of your league. Or guy. Whatever. You're welcome.

People need things when they go places. And they need to put those things in something. Like an awesome bag. That's what we set out to do, and we absolutely killed it.
