No.

Ubuntu Edge was a marketing campaign for Ubuntu Touch, it was never meant to succeed as a crowdfunding campaign.
The timeline and goal was delibrately set up so that it was not possible to succeed. I consider it an evil piece og marketing and misinformation. Really cheap and ugly. I hate that kind of thing.

Indeed. Why bring it up, they are worlds apart.
