Hi Carmelo,
The actual place for crowdfinancing in the financial community 10 years from now has a strong dependency with upcoming SEC and AFM (Dutch regulator) frameworks for crowdfinancing.
Assuming crowdfinancing can actually help start-up and SME businesses source financing without the heavy administrative burden for largecorp IPOs and bond issues we are confident that crowdfinancing will be a mature alternative for traditional angel- and bank financing in 10 years.
It will be key though to create a platform that provides financing products that can co-exist next to the traditional financing models.
And that is exactly what we are working on!
Best regards,
The Fundyd team

Coming up with the rules is a very complicated task. The mom & pop investors have turned their backs on Wall St. because of all the fraud and double dealing bubbling up in the press for the past 5-6 years. To boot, the SEC has meted out slaps on the wrists while hundreds of billions are missing. Hopefully the SEC will iron rules that will give small investors confidence they are not being screwed once again, this time by a new group, with tattoos and piercings instead of stuffy suits.
