there is a contrarian position on this... the Bitcoin Core clique of devs is very hermetic and exclusive, and one could argue that giving too much money to the same clique of people is counterproductive in the long term but if this was true one would also fund other groups of devs simultaneously (e.g. Knots, BDK) and especially one would also fund non-protocol developers as well. I have no confidence in the Bitcoin Core development process at all (especially since speedy trial).
ONE OF THE BIG ETFS WAS GOING TO DONATE TO OPEN SOURCE DEVS.
SAYLOR TOLD THEM IF THEY DID IT HE WOULD CRUSH THEM SO THEY PULLED OUT OF THE COMMITMENT.
