Well, no not exactly. But it's not impossible either. That's why I'm looking for people who may be interested in doing it for the fun and experience of it if we end up not making any money which is noted in the OP.
However, one of my ideas I'm nearly certain could get some funding if I were to put out a request for it. It's an idea for an app/token to be built in the Hive ecosystem. I'm about 90% sure the community would fund it if the proposal were set up.
But, I'd like to have a small team and a small proof of concept or at the very least a well thought out "white paper" for it before I put out the proposal.
I was thinking about doing that for the initial development. Then after launch using team allocated tokens for further funding.
