Kickstarter is a crowdfunding site to fund entrepreneurial projects in technology, design, film, art, and other creative fields. The video game project Double Fine Adventure has raised two million dollars from over sixty thousand backers, and the funding still has 19 days to go. Within the last two weeks, two other projects -- The Order of the Stick Reprint Drive and Elevation Dock -- have raised over one million dollars.
Kickstarter projects do not sell investment shares or offer financial incentives. Current U.S. law prohibits crowdfunding platforms from offering equity in the projects because of SEC securities registration requirements. Instead, project creators offer rewards to backers, such as pre-sale products and unique project experiences.
