Again you’re peppering your comments with off topic stuff. You’re falling fowl of numerous logical fallacies. Please stop being so confidently incompetent in your evaluation of the network and its potential. You do this all over the place. It’s tiring.
I would not be surprised if you got spooked, sold at the bottom, and now need it to go lower to get back in.
Real builders don’t care about short term price action. Why would they. Cycles are super cheap. If they stop being super cheap (relative to ICP) and are instead just cheap - nevermind. If you see an exodus of devs, chances are they’re not the sort that will really benefit the IC in the long run anyway.
Most devs in the open source world commit their work for free because they believe in the project. Open source is a huge movement. Crypto makes it easier to (potentially) profit from open source projects. I think it becomes problematic though when that becomes everyone’s sole focus (particularly if their time horizon is short).
