Reddit asks: why no folding@home-style crowdsourced open training dataset?

A user asks whether a community-contributed open dataset for pre/mid/post-training exists — letting people donate agent tokens folding@home-style to improve open models. They argue that beyond compute, a massive high-quality clean dataset is the biggest barrier for smaller labs, and would happily donate their leftover opencode/Claude Code weekly limits to synthetic data generation or tagging. The open challenge: no guarantee a model trained on it stays open source.
