Overview
The Decentralized Networks Initiative is a long‑term effort to create a more open, resilient web where individuals and communities can participate, govern, and sustain their own digital ecosystems. This donation page supports that mission by funding practical, interoperable solutions that put people first. By contributing to the initiative, you enable open standards work, real‑world tooling, and community‑driven governance that reduce dependence on centralized platforms and increase global access to trustworthy technologies.
Our aim is not to chase hype but to sustain core infrastructure and educational resources that empower developers, researchers, and users alike. Through careful planning, transparent reporting, and inclusive participation, the initiative builds momentum that translates into durable, low‑friction options for collaboration and participation across borders and backgrounds.
