I wholeheartedly agree that the problems Tea mentions do need to be solved, I maintain several large-ish OSS projects; it's not easy, takes a lot of effort.

Unfortunely, anything with crypto kinda just flops. Crypto was a decent idea, but there were too many uneducated people who didn't know what it was, and now it's turned into this dumpster fire.

I think another problem is also how no crypto project actually explains how it helps. Sure, I'm all in if I can earn some money for maintaing my OSS, but how does that work? What are the details? Literally every crypto thing just does some hand-waving and says, "don't worry 'bout it, it'll just work magically, trust me".
