Building Decentralized Code Collaboration on Ethereum
summary
Radical builds a decentralized code-collaboration network layered on git using a peer-to-peer gossip protocol and local-first replicas so issues, comments and reviews live on contributors' machines and are cryptographically signed. A shipped desktop app called Upstream desktop client demonstrates the workflow. An opt-in Ethereum layer adds ENS-based global namespace for discoverability and orgs as smart contracts that encode membership and permissions; funding hooks tie into DeFi for sustainable open-source maintenance.
