Hey Jack, i love that vision as well. Open source projects are the best to build on top of. But the biggest problem i see is that, the devs don't know how to monetize open source projects. Do you?
The best example of a large scale open source project being monetized is Android. There are many versions by different phone manufacturers. But they all use Google Play Store, which rakes in billions for the Android core maintainer, Google.
We need to figure our monetization models. Yes, Bitcoin worked well because everyone contributing to Bitcoin owned a large chunk of it. Its a win win. How do we replicate this model for other open source projects? Say, Graphene OS, how can they monetize?
