  • Views on an alternative source of funding via tokens

    Hello Ubuntu Touch, I think my previous and first topic was unfairly closed because few dislike the proposal but I wanted to let that thread to listen to your points of view.

    If the proposal to get real money to take Ubuntu Touch from niche to a real competitive OS, with enough resources is not welcome here because it may be seen by the foundation UBports as they are loosing their control on funds-donations. Where should I go an ask the opinion to the Ubuntu Touch community involved in the development?

    The topic unfairly closed:
    https://forums.ubports.com/topic/7183/financing-for-ubuntu-touch-development-via-tokens

    I will not be opening any more topics on this, I just wanted to comment about the unfair movement by moderators. I think I respectfully asked and answered in my comments.

  • Financing for Ubuntu Touch development, via tokens

    Hello, I am a community outsider, although I had followed Ubuntu touch when it was first released.

    Going straight to the point, how are you doing with financing? Do you have enough funds for development or do you find yourself limited?

    I work in blockchain world and I think it is a good opportunity for Ubuntu Touch to get financed the development there, via an ICO or similar techniques. Have you already discussed opportunities alike? I have not found any forum thread on that topic.

    My question comes from the constant need for funds from opensource projects, call it Ubuntu Desktop or Mozilla etc.
    And I think open source software has not ever lived a better time to get financed in the markets and funds should not be a limitation. Nowadays an ICO may raise hundreds of millions (for outstanding projects).

    My interest here is helping an alternative to the duopoly.
