Yes! However, as that does not seem to be the case, and law-enforcement is lax on what is a buy-sell transaction, lets make that kickstarter-alike project but instead of donating the users actually "BUY" ownership of a company or idea they want to support. Now the ownership can be restricted as much as a donation or an ebook "purchase" is, but it would still be a competitor to kickstarter and other projects who are not allowed to use the term Buy for their marketing purposes but are forced to accept donations only.
