Yeah I started with CDs but found they deteriorate relatively quickly ... :)

I use old platters to hang around our chicken houses. The idea is to distract hawks and eagles with the sparkle as they spin in the breeze... Probably doesn't work, but I like the shiny disks :)

Git is decentralised already

Just clone the monero repos to your PC and update your local copies with a git pull every now and then. With enough people doing so, the monero source will easily survive any hostilities from GH/M$/governments. If something happens, any of these git clones can used to "resurrect" a new main repository at a new host.

I am pretty sure most of the devs already have a local working copy of the repo on their PC.

So to be honest, I don't think your fundraiser is needed... but good luck anyway.

I bought a HM80 a while back and am very happy with it. It replaced an Intel i5 Nuc, Would purchase again.
