# Codeberg Bans Cryptocurrency And LLM-Generated Code Projects

**[Hackaday](https://daily.dev/sources/hackaday)** · 2 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Codeberg, the community-led open source hosting platform, has formally banned projects whose code is largely or fully generated by LLMs such as Claude or OpenAI Codex. A community vote passed the motion 358 to 144. The ban follows an earlier prohibition on cryptocurrency-related projects. Reasons cited include 'license whitewashing', increased hardware costs driven by AI datacenter expansion, harm to the OSS community, and cognitive degradation of developers. Scraping of hosted code for LLM training was also banned.
