Pitch
Problem
Community members want specific plugins but there is no structured way to express demand or fund the work. Feature requests get buried in GitHub Discussions.
Appetite
M — one week.
Solution
A bounty board at nself.org/bounties. Any user can open a bounty (plugin name, description, max pledge). Other users pledge. When a plugin author delivers and the bounty is accepted, funds release via Stripe.
High-vote bounties surface on the public roadmap as "Community Bets" when nSelf officially accepts them.
Out of scope
Escrow or dispute resolution. First version: honor-system delivery, manual acceptance by the maintainer.
