i think this idea is overblown. people have been building malicious bitcoin changes since it was launched. whether it’s blackrock or roger ver, it only matters if we all run the software. the idea that we need to gate keep who provide no strings attached funding to developers i don’t totally understand
blackrock can give developers 1 trillion dollars to change bitcoins supply from 21m. if we don’t update our nodes to that code it doesn’t matter. the real defense is all of us, not who funds devs
