#[2], interested to get your thoughts on my idea for a system to facilitate FOSS funding
#[1]
Nostr/Bitcoin Builders, tell me if this would be a useful service:
FOSS BOUNTY ESCROW (noncustodial, Bitcoin native, DLC or FediMint) with THIRD PARTY NEUTRAL evaluation over whether requirements are met by applicant.
Details:
* Third-party neutrals apply to be selected for panel by coordinator service. Compensated from donation funds + application fee. Final decision is oracle triggering payout (or not).
* Bounties are listed on Bounty Board Nostr relays. (E.g., https://nostrbounties.com/)
* Additional funders can select listed bounties to contribute to.
Benefits:
* Third-party adjudication + automatic payouts eliminates discretion of donors and reduces undue influence over FOSS ecosystems.
* Donors don't need to spend time/effort on review unless they disagree (engaging appeal process)
*Devs serving as neutrals get paid for PR review.
* Noncustodial escrow limits liability for coordinator/donors
Basically https://replit.com/site/bounties, but noncustodial, no bolt-on shitcoin, and decentralized dispute resolution.
