If we want Zcash to be the greatest privacy coin in the future we need all the help we can get. We need 100s or 1000s of developers comfortable contributing to the Zcash codebase. I don’t think it matters if the initial exposure to the Zcash code is through commercial applications or other cryptocurrencies. Chances are, if we have the best tech, some of those developers will also contribute to the Zcash community.
- Do we think QEDIT is going to be a net benefit to the community?
- Did their exposure to sapling and their commercial work net benefit the community?
- Would their commercial work have been hampered by a BOSL license?
