The DHF is fine, and we've suppored other devs at a similar wage, only we pay them upfront for work to-be-done. In both case, its worth it.
Nobody on this team controls the market, and when btc tanks all to hell, so do we. We've ridden along the same waves for years, this isn't new and waiting to match better market conditions is dumb.
The folks who've done the work, deserve the pay, full stop.
