As a matter of fact, any closed source project in the crypto ecosystem has an inherent flaw: it is not consensus  based hence it is not protocol based while at the end all in all crypto technology is about protocols and consensus. I understand we have a lot of players in this ecosystem right now who play with their closed source services and softwares but the point is as the result of their heterogeneity and incompatibility they will be extincted, sooner or later.

So, by no means this proposal can be classified as an investment. Any investment by nature is long term and possesses a futuristic vision, closed source softwares have no future, imo.
