Funding Open-Source Projects

You're probably familiar with the struggles of funding open-source projects. So, what if you could give tokens to your favorite projects? CleverCrow makes this possible. But what does this mean for the future of open-source funding?

A New Incentive

CleverCrow lets you give tokens to projects you care about. This could be a new way to incentivize contributions. You can show your appreciation for a project by giving it tokens.

And this can be a powerful motivator. If you're working on a project, getting tokens from users can be a great way to validate your work. But it also raises questions about the role of tokens in open-source funding.

What's Next

Some benefits of using CleverCrow include:
