Just saw this new grant program for Bitcoin devs... sounds interesting, right? But what does it really mean for the community?

Does this include writing documentation too? If yes, wouldn’t it be awesome to see a bunch of Bitcoin Wiki applications popping up?

Appreciate the info, but I’m not a fan of this grant being paid in USDC or USDT. If it's for Bitcoin devs, shouldn’t it be in Bitcoin only? Feels like a missed point.

Kinda ironic that some devs might choose stablecoins to dodge volatility. But come on, they should be all in for Bitcoin and its future, right?

As long as it promotes useful development, I’m cool with it. We need to be constructive and not dictate how they spend their grant. Let them choose what they need.

I doubt they think editing the Bitcoin Wiki counts as real development. But I hope they include Bitcoin Core documentation. Using USDT/USDC makes sense for some devs, especially with all their responsibilities.
