   I successfully raised 150% of my comic book goal on IndieGoGo. The campaign officially ended Tuesday. I just ordered books from the printer.
   IndieGoGo just canceled the campaign, refunded the donors, with no appeal. All the money, funders, orders, gone.

     @alex @Einbrecht @ninapaley Canada is trying to force exchanges to exit Canada to limit the on and offramps. I had anticipated this and worked out being able to pay direct with crypto for most of our bills so I think we will be fine for that but it's gay the government can turn the screws on em like that

     @ninapaley @Einbrecht The only censorship resistant way to accept money is cryptocurrency. Yes there are also major downsides to cryptocurrency.

     I've been warning people we(indies that are classical left to right) need to get off IGG. They've been ramping up to this for some time.
     
     Luke Stone is working on his own platform if you want an alternative that takes a lower cut than IGG/KS.
     
     If not I recommend creating your own shop, use stripe/what ever you need to in order to process orders and run your own shop.
     
     Alternatively seek a publisher, though publishers often bend the knee to social pressure so maybe not the best option.
