I don't know. Projects get funded all the time outside of Hive. I think it could work. I've had this idea for a while now but only published it recently. In that post I talk about one way the DHF might be able to support popular efforts at a lower level while most of the funds would be coming from other Hive users.

I'd be interested to follow your progress in this. Would help with inflation and dilution situation imo
😆 Well, there's a reason I'm asking for people to steal the idea. I've never been great at bringing projects like this to completion. Hopefully someone will take it and run with it.
I'd love to be involved though.
