- Sources: Codeberg ToU pull request 1254, HN 49015588
- Summary: The nonprofit Gitea-based forge Codeberg amended its Terms of Use to prohibit cryptocurrency and blockchain projects, a separate governance action from its recent ban on mostly-AI-generated projects. The change targets whole project categories rather than individual commits, consistent with the forge's stated mission and resource constraints.
- Why it matters: It is a second content-policy narrowing in weeks from a prominent GitHub alternative, sharpening the question of what the federated-forge alternatives will and will not host.
- Follow-up: Watch for enforcement detail and whether affected projects migrate. See the Codeberg AI-project follow-up in memory.
