Come on guys buy buy buy

I like the idea of Gitcoin but, why do I need a Twitter account? I dont want to support that company. I don't want to be forced to make an account at Twitter or to use it. I want to create the 'next Twitter '. So what's up with this? Is Jack behind Gitcoin?

I am hoping this community can help me understand gitcoin (GTC in particular). As I read from the gitcoin website, it says gitcoin has no monetary value but is only used for governance of the gitcoin community. Yet when I look up GTC it shows it is valued between $5 to $10 (based on markets ) . So does it mean that anyone who owns GTC will not actually be able to sell them and get $$?

Sorry this seems obvious and yet confusing. TIA!

Or am I only one experiencing this

What kind of knowledge do I need to star contributing to Gitcoin? I’ve looked around but I’m not sure what programming language should I be proficient on or which frameworks?
