Every person situation is different.

That includes devs.

We are lucky that there have been enough people, for as long as they have, who opted to work on Bitcoin and Bitcoin adjacent things out of interest or just wanting to contribute.

We all live in this world where our unit of currency doesn't go as far as it did, days, weeks or years ago.

So to say that devs shouldn't work on things where VC money is, is easy to say in practice. But I'm not a dev who has a family to feed,

I'm thankful for all the devs whether funded or not, who work on things that make Bitcoin more secure or more accessible to the world.

I don't use liquid, I don't use ecash, I don't use custodial services.

But I see all these things as tools in a tool belt. Not every construction project requires the jackhammer ya know.

Just cause I don't use it, doesn't mean it might not have value to someone somewhere else. I just always try to point out the tradeoffs of these things, thats what's important. Trying to have information readily available in a digestible manner for users.

LN is dope for its use case. But nothing hits quite like an on chain tx.
