Disclosure
At Kingscrowd, we’re committed to providing quality data and fair, impartial analysis to our investors. Because we value the trust you’ve placed in us, we will not rate our own campaign on StartEngine or initiate an analyst report for our own raise. This deliberate measure safeguards against any conflict of interest, ensuring that our insights remain independent, transparent, and focused solely on empowering your investment decisions.
