Yes and it's part of a larger trend in tech and computing. As it becomes more lucrative, more people get involved for the primary reason of making money, whereas formerly a larger proportion of people were involved because they found it interesting. Both are legitimate reasons to be involved in tech in my opinion, but it's definitely a shift in demographics.
