POSM fosters healthy tooling, dev‑onboarding, and security through a maintainers‑paid model—not grants. I support the Maintainer Retainer Program, Bug Bounties, and Code‑for‑Us initiatives under transparent milestoned delivery.
However, I encourage clearer anti‑Sybil protections and an independent annual audit to reinforce trust in fund allocation. - Yes56.4K ₳No rationale

Intersect hasn't done much for the ecosystem and hasn't contributed enough to justify its continued existance. No funding for Intersect committees.
