Because the new market looks like a blind gold rush. Everybody is going to the same place but the maths says that most won't have any ROI.
Maybe you could help with this more-focused question : How to promote a team of (quite) expert python coders ? I've seen some freelancing sites but 1/ indians/chinese/whatever can undercut everybody there and 2/they focus mainly on task that doesn't need good coders.
Thanks
