I mean we already have a winner (Bun) and it just means that Deno has admitted defeat.
From what is likely going to happen is that Deno will be donated to the Linux Foundation to avoid this.

Bun admitted defeat and sold themselves even before Deno. Node.js is and always was the winner.
Bun being acquired was not an admission of defeat. They are still actively developing.

Right up until the day the founder gets bored and leaves Anthropic, or some middle manager does a reorg and the project isn't important to them anymore.
Didn't the danger of the founder getting bored always exist? With or without Anthropic?
What happens when the founder of node.js walks away? Nothing, because the project is community driven and is backed by the Linux foundation.
Good example there, since Ryan Dahl of Deno is the founder of node.js.
Anthropic use bun. It wasn't an acquihire. They depend on the tool. If the founder gets bored and leaves, it will continue to exist at least as long as Anthropic use it.
