Measuring an open source project solely on financial contributions and not real contributions (bug fixes, new features, testing, building automation, finding 0-days, supporting users in chatrooms and forums, etc.) is fiat mentality.

I'm not even sure why people would object to purely factually statements like "bitcoin software and Linux software are both largely open source", but to ignore all the contributions people make just because they don't get paid for them is a, quite simply, a bad take.

I said what I said.
