A quick update on the current state of project funding via BitsharesBreakoutWe've had a couple very promising projects come up, that I believe are worth the money spent. The objective of fund.bitsharesbreakout is to provide these projects with the necessary means to get started quickly without waiting for delegate funds to accrue. My initial plan was to have a list of projects waiting to receive funding and wait until the delegate
fund.bitsharesbreakout got elected. However, I wanted to push this even one step further. I've decided to preemptively fund these projects before that happens. We are at a time where we can not wait any longer to get some high quality material out there. I hope you can appreciate the projects we've got started and take a moment and
vote for fund.bitsharesbreakout.

I'll extend the same offer to the rest of the community. If you would like to contribute to these projects you can send donations to BTS :
