Will certain verification standards have the effect of pushing up a typical, minimum
angel investment size, even as the proliferation of accredited crowdfunding platforms is taking angel investing in the opposite direction, i.e., smaller investments per investor per deal, and the spreading of an individual angel's investment capital over a broader portfolio?
Angels of any
size are usually not as capable or interested in multiple rounds of
investment, leaving good startups that are not superstars stranded without funding after an initial round or two.
