Blockstream is for-profit, embraces open source (free[dom] software).

Foundation is for-profit, embraces open source (free[dom] software).

Start9 is for-profit, embraces open source (free[dom] software).

Mutiny Wallet is for-profit, embraces open source (free[dom] software).

Freedom doesn't mean working for free, it means continuing #Bitcoin's long-held tradition of open source software in order to prevent regulatory capture by any single vendor. Companies that disband this culture threaten #Bitcoin.

Obviously, Bitcoiners *do* care about open source and they care about being lied to by license traps pretending to be open source.

Product moats have always come from reputation, not government. Build great things and customers will be loyal. Decieve, and they will question their loyalty.

Yes, this post is about #Coldcard and other license traps like it.

Open source = free (as in freedom) software.

It has nothing to do with working for free, and everything to do with embracing #Bitcoin's freedom ethos.

If the source is not freed, it's not open source.
