In the past 12 months Clipperz password manager has received slightly more than 2,000 Euro (about 3,100 USD). I just want to say thanks to all our donors!
Below is a graph of donations by country. Clipperz users from the USA alone contributed for about 50% of the total, but our PayPal account received money from 23 other countries. Quite a long tail!
A little curiosity: Clipperz is strong among the academic community! We have received donations from students and professors of the most prominent universities: Cornell, Harvard, MIT, Polytechnique de Lausanne, Oxford, Cambridge, …
I never revealed this fact to the many VCs that declared Clipperz a very interesting service, but not worth investing because appealing only to a niche of sophisticated and advanced users. :-)

how could VCs think that
how could VCs think that such a useful service would only be limited to advanced users and a certain other few? i think we all have password managing problems in this day and age thanks to the countless registrations required across the internet.
of course cancelling finance on the basis of “lack of safety” would be fine but to say that such a service is not capable of mass appeal is wrong.
i wonder what goes on in the mind of VCs. i plan to be an entrepreneur someday and i wonder how many VCs would i have to get my message to before they accept me!
