What about setting up a bounty system ? For now, people donate to
support the project as a whole. Maybe they would be more inclined to
donate if they knew what they donate for.

As an example, lets say that a fully-working, WoT-based, chat system
would take you 2 weeks at full time. We set a bounty on it at $1,500,
and when the amount is reached, you stop working on the node and do it.

Of course, that would slow down the work on the node but that would
raise money and give people the features they want, bringing more users,
etc...

What do you think ?
