Dunno. Roger certainly knows and Id imagine he could have asked when he got paid off by Roger (Roger gave Paul $1M not long ago).

If you're talking about layer two labs, that seems pretty innocent to me.
It seems like you're trying to imply there's some conspiracy where Ver is paying Paul off to.. what? make twitter posts that are mean to gmax? 😂
Nah, but when you support someone by wayyyyy overpaying for a product, then that person starts tweeting nasty things about your enemies, I think it’s fair to suggest that the two are close enough that they at least *could* have gotten their facts straight if they wanted to.
ok, I see where you're coming from
fwiw, I wouldn't make the same inference. I have many friends whom I would support financially (even if their ideas seemed less than profitable) and I wouldn't ask anything like nasty tweets in return.
$1M for that isn’t financial support, it’s a generous gift. Grants for a year of open source dev are pretty standard at $100K. Even if you double or triple it 1M is still generous.
❤ I try to be a generous man and I am not suspicious of the generosity of others. It's a good mindset, I recommend it
