Dan O’Prey and Mas Nakachi join Daniel Modell 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
