I'm kind of surprised at their list of investors. I mean Mark Cuban is generally a skeptical guy at investing from what I see on Shark Tank. Then there is some major investors (Andreessen Horowitz, Founders Fund, Shawn Fanning...) Can't these people afford a technologist/scientific consultant to bounce thughts on the feasibility of ideas before investing in them? I guess for them spending a $1M here or there is pocket change.
Mark Cuban is a lottery winner and reality TV star. He made his own money by selling a company to yahoo for billions that they shut down shortly after taking a giant loss.
Who knows about all of these guys though. It makes you wonder if they are taking unresearched scattershot approaches to winning carnival games in the hopes of walking home with a few big prizes.
