Perhaps core infrastructure passwords for a project could be placed in a dead-man's-switch escrow service, where they will only be released to a larger core team if NONE of the (potentially multiple) project leaders with those passwords check in for a certain period. Current blockchains/crypto don't permit this without a trusted third party escrow service, though, AFAIK.
