I was thinking of a similar thing. But maybe people logging in 'pledging' interest in sat amounts to projects in their completion. Basically an honour system of paying. Unofficial bounty. Wouldn't have to worry about funds being held somewhere. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Like eg

- phpBB forum client

🌟Peter pledges to donate 4k

🌟Sally pledges to donate 20k

🌟Jack pledges to donate 20k

This way even if people can only donate tiny amounts, if interest grows and more and more people pledge it could total quite significant amounts until it becomes tempting to a dev.

Thank you for this! I appreciate your point of view! It would be nice for funds to be held to show seriousness of the posts and the commitment to fulfilling promises. Even these small amounts. And with bitcoin we can have the information ℹ️ of funds flowing right on the platform as well! .
