Problem is it absolutely will turn when the Bluesky owners Jay Graber and Jack Dorsey decide it's time to cash in. The project started out as a way to start decentralizing twitter, but they never actually accomplished that goal.

Jack Dorsey has nothing to do with Bluesky

Aside from being its founder. I know he left the board, but I haven't seen any reason to believe he gave up ownership rights.

Leaving the board of directors is pretty much as giving up ownership rights. He has nothing to do with Bluesky anymore and he makes us sure he doesn't want to.

Leaving the board of directors means no day to day control, but he could still exert influence on a shareholders vote.

It means he doesn't directly manage it. Proof that he sold his ownership to somebody else would be evidence of giving up ownership rights.
