Strong opinion, loosely held

For an open source protocol that aims to be credibly neutral, paid bounties work for small tasks but something like an open source client is better if organically built (as a labor of love) and then receives a retroactive public goods type funding.

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

non-crypto open source is beautiful bc of 1 and 2 but lack of 3 is big problem

crypto foundations and token incentives messed up this system and attract mostly mercenaries

op rpgf / nouns have a shot at solving for 1 and 3
