Yeah, it's such a weird space, here.
Completely defies all free market dynamics because it's aflood with charity. Charities are, by definition, not meant to solve the problems they address. They exist to perpetuate themselves by alleviating problems.
These aren't real investors. Real investors want a return on investment, and efficient development raises their returns. Why would an investor pay €500k for something that would be built better for €5k? He wouldn't, but they are.
The only real investors we have, on Nostr, are the individual people and companies zapping, crowdfunding, and making contracts with suppliers. We're increasingly off in our own economic ecosystem.
