Dan O’Prey and Mas Nakachi join The Daniel for a live-streamed chat in the PubKey Parlor, where they discuss ​1A1z's recent reports covering both the organizations that fund Bitcoin core devs and VC firms focused on Bitcoin companies. They dive into: Why are there only 41 people maintaining a trillion-dollar network—and who’s paying them? What happens when the most important software in the world runs on a shoestring budget? The quiet role of Jack Dorsey and a handful of anonymous benefactors... and how normal people can be even more impactful Why Bitcoin’s biggest security risk might be a spreadsheet no one’s looking at The bizarre funding gap between flashy altcoin projects and Bitcoin companies What the VC world still doesn’t get about Bitcoin and everyday users—and how that might be changing ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Catch the next Spaces by following us on X: ⁠https://x.com/PubKey⁠ Recorded on March 20th, 2025 at PubKey NYC.
