Hearing a lot of chatter about $FREECODE, which might be worth our while.


Dev is @paoloanzn, a cracked open-source dev known for releasing "free-code", the open-source fork of Anthropic's Claude Code CLI.
He removed telemetry tracking, restrictive system-level guardrails, and unlocked experimental features that many devs wanted access to, which is, for lack of better words, INSANE.
Now, building on the community that formed around free-code, Paolo says he's making $FREECODE the most ambitious project of his career.
According to the website:
$FREECODE is the token behind the Free Code Fund, a project focused on solving a problem that has existed in open source for years: great software gets used by everyone, but the people building it often struggle to get paid.
The fund finances open-source software with real-world impact, starting with AI agent research and infra before expanding into broader developer tooling and open-source projects.
Engineers are paid in USDC based on verifiable contributions like merged pull requests, signed commits, and shipped releases.
Everything funded through the program must be open source, released under permissive licenses, and fully transparent.
So basically, $FREECODE acts more like an index tracking the growing portfolio of funded projects and contributors across the ecosystem.
We expect more info in the coming days and weeks. Worth watching imo
