Seems like they listed the jobs only a couple of days resp. one week ago. Imo that doesn't look as if they're planning to give up.
they had a very succesful ICO which means they still have plenty of funding for the next couple of years. Hopefully they'll get a big userbase soon otherwise its going to be exactly like in the dotcom bubble, a lot of good companies from those days never saw any success
If the bear market continues for another couple of months / a year, a lot of projects will have problems to keep liquid funds available. Especially, when they hold most or all of their funds in cryptocurrencies (which decreased a lot in value). So in this case it will be important for projects to 'survive' this crypto winter until the market goes up again.
we'll find out which teams were smart and which were hopeful lol, a lot will have cashed quite a bit to pay for staff and development, but most will have kept their funds in Eth so they didnt have to pay tax
