Unfortunately I suspect this may go the way of many freelance sites, and get absolutely flooded with low quality indian developers. Where the wage is lower $0.75 may seem a lot more attractive and there are a lot of fresh out of university indian devs.

If you've ever tried bidding on remote dev jobs online, you'll practically always get undercut by an indian dev at a price you can't even come close to matching, and unfortunately I suspect that given how often they appear in comments online asking people to do their entire project, I suspect they may often be bidding for jobs they don't know how to do.
