The project can be non-profit, like ENS was in the beginning, automatically burning the proceeds of the auctions.


I mean, anything that happens here would have to be a non-profit with really strong commitments not to enrich the founders, or it's DOA. But that's a necessary and not sufficient condition; you can imagine all sorts of non-profit attempts to effectively reclaim the roots that would fail for reasons other than money; for instance, such a project would also need to have governance matching the expectations of the rest of the Internet, which is tricky to do.
