Thing is Tonych works very hard compared to most devs and is of course smarter than 99% of other devs too.
Needs to be more of a team player than lone wolf. Community and trust is important to gain the network effect that is lacking here.
And what are you basing this opinion on? Do you have first hand experience working with Tony or you just like to speculate and talk how things should be?
My experience as developer has been totally different with Tony. Never considered him as lone wolf and he delegates lot of work to other people, even when it seems like he is doing everything.
Also, never felt that he doesn't trust people, so I don't get where you get this from. I guess trust is a two-way street, after a while you give up explaining why some things are the way they are (12 non-anonymous witnesses), especially when some of the stuff argued here are documented multiple times over and over.
There are plenty of people with their own opinion how things should be in cryptoverse. None of the projects need people like that, only people who make things happening are needed.
There should be no trust, that's the core element of crypto.
