There are many people interested in starting new services and who are
interested in hiring developers or at least partnering with them. This
is an important part of the ecosystem. I have noticed both here and on
Reddit that when someone proposes an idea it goes one of two ways:
either there is a large amount of interest if the person is well known
or liked or; the person is accused of being a spammer or made fun of if
they are not well known or liked. All this does is make the developers
look like a small fickle group who actively promote Bitcoin as a an
insiders' club (much like the Fed). There should probably be a list
where people can actively discuss proposed or ongoing projects and look
for developers to hire.
