The worst part about it is them funding bitcoin core devs. Corporate entities should not fund development. Open source development should be organic

I don't mind that. I view it as them giving back to the hand that feeds them. The issue would be us hoping that core devs have high morals.
Corporate entities funding development is an attack on Bitcoin plain and simple.
Somebody has to fund the development. The more companies of different verticals the better. And of course, the less strings attached that come with these grants, the better, too.
If you have high stakes, you have to fund securing your stakes.
