We could also do a lottery.  Busoni keeps 50% of lottery pot, winning lottery ticket keeps the other 50%

The possibility of hitting the jackpot could be a good incentive for people to buy lottery tickets (donate).

This feels like a good idea that could make-up all or part of the solution.

If we can get a good assortment of "+ 1s" on this idea maybe we can take this as symbolic of a community mandate . And then to implement maybe the Dev team could nominate a trusted member of the community to run the XCP Powerball Lottery (haha), say, once per week or once every two weeks with advertising all over Reddit and the other boards!

Now someone trustworthy to handle the details

And how will you know the lottery was provably random?

Which is why I said someone trustworthy. I pretty much would only trust one of our devs for this.
