I think this is an excellent funding source rather than all the problems associated with government grants. Let those who are interested fund your research. Of course some science is far too expensive for crowd funding.

Maybe we can hire this guy to find the missing IRS emails...

Which gets crowd funded by taxes anyway. The liberal money grubbers just don't get it. lol!

I like this funding method. I read archaeology news and routinely come across the demand for more gubmint funding: "This work is so important, without funding our life's work/this critical piece of history will be in jeopardy...

And I always think that if it's so important, work for free, pay your own way and solicit funding through private channels.

The best funding source is to make the hunts self sustaining.
Sell an occasional meteorite. The going price is
$1,000 per gram for an average meteorite. There’s about 28 grams in a pound.

Excellent. Let’s crowdfund as many functions as we can.
