We don't need any more code to bloat bitcoin. Have the Devs not been stacking for a while? I never said they had lots, but why do they suddenly need charity?

Yeah if all devs stopped working on maintaining it, who will be around when something breaks and then people lose faith. Bitcoin is not magic, itβs like any other software system. It keeps working well because people are maintaining it.
I know many devs don't have spare cash to stack, and they also see all the flaws and potential failure points in Bitcoin, so didn't have the confidence that it was going to succeed as it has.
Lots of devs haven't even been around that long.
Bitcoin hasn't increased in value enough in the past few years to get rich without insanely risky leverage strategies.
This is the shittiest take I think I've ever seen on this topic!
Who the fuck is "we" and how'd they pick you as the voice?
You want bitcoin devs to pay themselves for work today with their own unrealized savings account gains? How about the new 16 year old coming in today, that we need tomorrow? Fuck that noise "Elizabeth"..
Devs are building and maintaining "the new financial roads" on their own dime - yes those running businesses that use the roads should kick down to those bad ass, self sacrificing, Mo Fos!
