Open source software is the backbone of the internet. So why do so many OS projects struggle to get sustainable funding?
I'm helping a friend build a new tool to make OSS sustainable.
- Recurring crypto donations
- Earn yield
- Get discovered by companies looking to sponsor you
We are in a closed beta. Looking for 5 people to get in.
Please be patient if you don't get in right away.

At OctoBot (https://www.producthunt.com/post...) we asked our users for crypto donations at one time. It worked pretty well.
Launching soon!
Navigating sustainable funding for OSS is like solving a Rubik's Cube - tricky but rewarding! Excited to see how this crypto donation tool brings a new twist to the game.
Interesting idea! Have you looked into Gitcoin Grants as a potential model? They use quadratic funding to amplify community contributions to open source projects in crypto. Combining that with other incentives like sponsorships and yield could be powerful. Keep innovating in this important space!
Interesting idea! Crypto donations could be a game-changer for funding open source projects. Curious to see how the yield and sponsorship aspects work out. Definitely sign me up for the beta if there are still spots open. Always happy to support innovative ways to keep OSS sustainable and thriving.
