Wildcard,
Kickstart is interesting! So how does it work in practice? Say 100 contributors buy in to this project at $25.00 per. Realize this is just an example; but, let's say the project is only $2,500.00. What's the integrity/safeguards to having the funds spent on the project? Obviously the trust element comes into play. A few folks here, Padgett comes to mind, as well as others here who could reverse engineer this for a reasonable cost workaround.
