Ep. 611 Tim Lewis | Open-source Software Development with Tea Protocol

For episode 611 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Tim Lewis, Co-founder of tea.xyz.

Tea Protocol's CoinList token launch comes at a pivotal moment as critical open-source infrastructure faces a funding crisis. With Shipyard ceasing support for libp2p, the networking backbone powering Ethereum, IPFS, and $100B+ worth of blockchain networks, on September 30th due to resource constraints, Tea.xyz's blockchain-based solution for compensating open-source maintainers has never been more relevant. 

Founded by Homebrew creator Max Howell, Tea represents the convergence of crisis and solution, demonstrating how crypto can finally solve real infrastructure problems rather than fueling speculation.
