[bisq-network/proposals] Connect traders and contributors more closely by extending the fee model (#280)

> One thing I might suggest is starting with a small number of initiatives we know that fees are likely to be enough to fund (and that users would find attractive). I don't think it's realistic to have all high-priority Bisq work funded solely through fees right now.

Yes I agree. Best to have a low target (maybe just 5000 USD extra) and be able to meet the target and give both contributors and supporting traders a success experience.

Absolutely. Thats why it wil be super important to be realistic with estimations and delivery. 

Yes, after further thinking I think its best to just make this an add-on the the normal process we have. So contributions can be done insidw our budget limited teams or if a project is candidate for this direct user support in that space. We have to be very selective and past reputation will be a factor for acceptance (e.g. its too risky that a new contributor make a projeect promise but does not fulfill it). It also should focus on projects users often request and which are easier to understand from a user perspective. Segwit was a prime example but would have been also difficult as it was a big project.
