If the money were to be used to secure the network somehow, it would make sense.
If the money just goes to the creators... it was all just a money grab.
- anunay03 4y agoI am unsure about the speicfics but Handshake appears to burn the money paid. So that's fine. However most of the potential token supply (like 50%) was premined/airdropped to ssh keys of Github users with >15 followers.

- anunay03 4y agoOh I mean it's fine as a concept, since everybody gets the money (in a situation where all the tokens were obtained "naturally"). Ofc in this case the Devs and the "sponsers" have 10% of it, so yea.
