Ether Core Developer Péter Szilágyi: Most Developers Start Coding Before Thinking About Monetary Returns

Péter Szilágyi, a core developer at ethereum, offers insights into the motivations of developers. According to him, there is a fundamental misunderstanding about builders; Szilágyi notes that most developers start coding before they think about the monetary rewards, and that they do so because creating things is inherently fun, challenging, and exciting. He emphasized that while money can buy a developer's time, it can't buy their passion, and Szilágyi argued that in order to do great work, you need to be driven by passion in addition to time commitment.
