YouTube Vanced was shut down because they tried to monetise it by releasing their own crypto NFTs, sparking Google to shut it down. I think for now Revanced is safe.

Every great project always seems to have that one dude who is like, "But what if crypto?". Really hoping we are moving past that phase.

Its a monetization approach, same motives as what youtube does here with the ads so doubt itll ever go away.
