March 28th, 2015: on this day in Verge history.
Remember Pebble? Exactly eight years ago, Pebble wrapped up its Pebble Time campaign on Kickstarter, raising just over $20 million for its latest smartwatch and setting a new crowdfunding record.
Remarkably, that record stood until March 31st, 2022, when author Brandon Sanderson doubled it by raising an astonishing $41,754,153 for a series of four novels. Nonetheless, eight years later, the Pebble Time still sits in the #2 spot for most funded projects on Kickstarter.
