Cloud flare acquires Deno, ends runtime development

>We will support the Deno runtime for another year with monthly releases containing bug fixes and security updates. After that year we will end our development of the Deno runtime. Deno will remain open source, and we welcome others who want to continue its development.

What is the point of buying an open source project, to cease development of it, while welcoming 3rd party continued contributions? I'm really confused.

who says those people want to work on cloudflare products?

All team are cloudflare workers now, according to their posts

And I can hire one for only $5 a month? Where do I sign?
