Hey rat4, can I suggest not to use the Jelurida license as it isn't OSD compliant? This will make Blacknet -not- open source.

It breaks rules 1 and 10

1. Free Redistribution
The license shall not restrict any party from selling or giving away the software as a component of an aggregate software distribution containing programs from several different sources. The license shall not require a royalty or other fee for such sale.

10. License Must Be Technology-Neutral
No provision of the license may be predicated on any individual technology or style of interface.

See definition of open source here: https://opensource.org/osd/

Airdrop of 10% or whatever the number was, to original source is a royalty to holders, thus making it not technology-neutral as it references a singular original code.
