A study of Kickstarter projects showed that 54.2% were successful, that is, achieved its goal and raised at least the targeted goal amount. In an effort to identify network dynamics that influences success, projects were subdivided into projects of owners who had backed other projects before, during or after creating their project ( owners with backing history), and projects of owners without backing history. The results are as follows:
