This article tries to predict some upcoming trends in crowdfunding in 2019.
According to the World Bank’s “Crowdfunding’s Potential for the Developing World” report, the industry is expected to worth more than US$95 billion in the near future.
Crowdfunding has effectively transformed from a practice with limited sources of contributions (mainly charity) purposed to acquire future products to allowing crowd contributors to access profit-making opportunities.
Some of these we’ve already seen attempts at, like equity crowdfunding and a ridiculous proliferation of anything related to cryptocurrencies.
