Like i mentioned.. too "high tech" for my tastes...
Open source is great, for a software for the greater good of the community. Such as a Security software. NO ONE wants to get hacked. especially the developers. Thus they donate their time to be as secure as possible. Multiply the contributers by 10 fold and you have a LOT of great minds to put something together and at VERY low overhead. Thats a GREAT reason for open source.
Now, dangle the fact they can have MONEY to do this. These same programmers when faced with the fact of "i can donate my time to make bitcoin more secure. OR, i can use my time to find loopholes in bitcoin and potentially make myself rich.".
Are you willing to gamble YOUR money on the fact that most/all programmers/hackers will be MORALLY SOUND? Not me.
Thus, a little too "high tech" for me.
