Luca Netz has expressed a critical stance on blockchain grants and subsidies, arguing that they attract the wrong type of developers. Netz likens blockchain ecosystems to cities, suggesting that applications and developers naturally gravitate towards chains with high user activity, rather than those offering financial incentives. He emphasizes the importance of organic growth and distribution over artificial stimulation through grants, as discussed on the "Uneasy Money" podcast with hosts Kaiynne and Tayvano.
