You Built It. Now Get Paid. Ethereum's Devansh Mehta on Fixing Open Source Funding | HackerNoon
Briefly

Devansh Mehta of the Ethereum Foundation is exploring how blockchain and machine learning can reshape funding for open-source work. He emphasizes blockchain's potential as a public database, allowing greater creativity and transparency. Mehta points out the unique architecture of blockchain that reverses traditional server-client relationships, thus making it accessible to a wider audience. His passion lies in preventing the double selling of impact in the nonprofit sector, ensuring that genuine efforts are recognized and funded appropriately, rather than those merely marketed effectively.
