Not familiar with the first but the second is funded by a commercial company whose core focus is Ethereum-based, and they're making another cryptocurrency and caused a bunch of PR spammers the same way Tea did.

Drips sounded like a reasonable idea to get builders funded.
It seems that Drips has been funding FOSS builders with real money for a while, so I'm not sure what issue you have with that.
Drips has nothing in common with tea.xyz, and I have never come across any PR spamming issue related to it, as it operates in a very different way. Can you provide any evidence?
