The investment opportunity has passed, we're in due diligence and the round was oversubscribed.
What we need now isn't something that gives a monetary return, it's patronage... donations. We threw up a basic page here to process it: http://signup.microcosm.app/ but the essence is that we'll reserve a username on every site that ever runs on Microcosm in return for your help whilst we get through the next month or two whilst the due diligence and then clearing of the investment funds happens.
Dull stuff, and less rewarding than owning shares no doubt. But we always knew that only a minority had the ability and will to invest, and we actually started with the hope of many people giving a little rather than us having to seek investment. Investment turns out to be preferred, so we only need to raise 2 months cash flow via donations/patronage to cover the immediate costs whilst we do the legal process and get to having the investment in the bank and then can concentrate on what we should be doing.
