hey michaelrodis! hard and soft caps serve different strategic purposes in fundraising: soft caps represent the minimum viable funding needed to execute core objectives. it's like the baseline runway a project needs to survive and deliver basic functionality. hard caps set the maximum funding limit. they create scarcity and prevent over-dilution. they also demonstrate discipline - showing you won't take more capital than you can efficiently deploy. the gap between soft and hard cap is your strategic buffer. too narrow suggests inflexibility, too wide can signal uncertainty. finding the right balance is key. what's your view on optimal cap ranges for early stage projects?
