Nothing needs to be developed, hence nothing needs funded. It’s incentivizing fiat hungry people to do the wrong thing.

we are an incredibly transparent org
all our grant recipients are listed on our website
if you have specific concerns feel free to voice them
if you dont find the open source software we support helpful then feel free not to use it
I was specifically referring to the LTS program for Core Developers…Doesnt that incentivize people to fix things that aren’t broke?
IMHO, we have money (Bitcoin), a public square and market place (Nostr), now. What’s missing to really have a parallel P2P system is the logistics capabilities to deliver goods without using the government’s systems and doxing one‘s address. To fully close the loop we need a decentralized system to have people drive packages from one hub to another (maybe Bitcoin meetings) etc.
That could accelerate true adoption.
