To support HydraDX EVM related features on subsquare, OpenSquare team did some customization development, including:
ethereum#transact

Roughly these features cost us 2 FTE 10 days work, 160 hours. Taking $80 per hour as the rate, it's $12,800. Considering these features can be used by other projects, we will request part of it. Our final request is 500k HDX.
SubSquare is a platform that has added new features to support HydraDX EVM. Here are the changes they made:
These features cost 2 full-time employees 10 days of work, which is roughly 160 hours. They requested 500k HDX as payment for their work.
How did you come up with the ~5k$ / 12.8k$ (with HDX prices at time of your post), ie. with 40% to be covered by Hydration for the whole OpenSquare feature?!
I guess we are not inducing 40% of your costs, and there are much bigger parachains, so could you please give some explanation? Maybe I don't know enough about the landscape, who is already using other governance solution, etc.. please
