I've been thinking about the reverse kickstarter for years. It is an awesome idea, but it would also suffer from a lot of problems:

- Just like any "network": not enough contributing members.

- People would pay now or when the problem was solved? Are they going to guarantee payment for something without a certain date?

- Who would decide if the problem was solved or not?
