Does your data allow comparisons at different points in time? In particular, is the gap widening or narrowing?

(A 6X differential isn't too surprising when there's a clear first-mover or early-mindshare-leader... but it also isn't insurmountable as long as the market is growing and fluid.)

Unfortunately, we didn't scrape any time information. Surprisingly enough, Indiegogo is actually the older crowdfunding platform, though I agree with you Kickstarter was certainly the early-mindshare-leader.

Judging from the live dollar amounts that we saw over time, Kickstarter is continuing to widen it's lead.
