If you want to build an alternative to GitHub, sure, but keep the tuplip bulb fake money out of it.
- malermeister 4y agoThe only thing we can do is to continuously ostracize the hucksters. Make them understand they're not welcome in polite society. This site has been getting a lot better at that, but it's all of our duty to give pushback wherever we can.
- leesalminen 4y agoExcept in this case, the proposed project doesn't use a crypto token, nft, or blockchain. It's just the bounty is denominated in BTC instead of USD. You could say that this dissuades many talented developers from taking on the bounty, which is true, sure. That doesn't make it a crypto project.
- LightHugger 4y agoNostr isn't crypto, what are you talking about? Are you just unhappy btc is being used as the reward? It's not a grift to use a currency as a currency. That's the actually worthwhile purpose, you being able to send money to people without messing with payment processors who are themselves grifts.
