Profit does not make a project sustainable.

Decentralisation, privacy preserving protocols, and an enthusiastic community of contributors do.

Profit can help fuel that. Donations do too. So can a desire to solve one’s own problem, coupled with the free time and energy to do so.

A profitable project without decentralisation can be captured and controlled.

A profitable product without privacy punishes you for using it. The more you use it, the more control the profit maker has over you.

A profitable project without contributions from a wider community survives only as long as the profit maker decides. And evolves in only the way they allow.

Freedom is intrinsically decentralised, private, and supported and sustained by a community. Design your system, product, or service accordingly.
