It depends what the T&C's were.
Some might argue some of the original BTS funding was misspent, Vote DAC in particular comes to mind, I think Adam received many hundreds of thousands of dollars of the initial donation funding. ($300-500 000 I think)
They also received 1% of BTS, vested. There were calls to remove/halt the vesting stake, which was partly thwarted by this statement...
I just talked with the FMV team and they have plans to launch a service on the BTS chain this year.
Did FMV launch a service on BTS in 2015 or did they just say that to keep collecting vested BTS?
Even now CNX overcharges for work, arguing it's one of the best ways to stimulate competition...
CNX has a lot on our plate, we want new developers to come in and therefore we bid HIGH prices for the work.
In other words, we bid relatively high so we can make a significant profit and reinvest it into the industry and other could underbid us.
When some like Jakub might argue providing better documentation + other training initiatives are a better route to bring in new BTS developers
