This is a very intriguing concept with a lot of future possibilities. The early contributors to an Open source project often go unrewarded when it becomes a commercial hit. Cases in point - Mongo, Hadoop (Hortonworks), Memsql, etc. started out with a good amount of community support, and later went on to becoming commercial successes. While they recognized a lot of the contributors through various programs, and sometimes hired them in, the others who didn't join their journey full time might not have benefited. Many other companies start with a "Develop in the open" philosophy now, despite being VC backed from early stages - cases in point Meteor, Gitlab, Appsmith, etc. The community engagement is slightly on the lower side once the project is well staffed. The motivation seems to go down. What if the contributors could have a pie of the company? A very small pie that is proportional to the importance of the feature or bug fix at that point in time. But, as the company grows, the value of the pie grows. Just like an ESOP, or any token. Could say a project set aside 20% of their enterprise value as tokens, and use them as rewards to drive their roadmap with the community? Higher the importance, higher the bounty. That could change the dynamics around OSS contributions, which are currently driven more by the interest of the contributor more than the importance of a feature or a fix to the project. I see Aviyel could also potentially drive such a shift. Would love to hear the founders' take and vision around this area.

@rajagopal_natarajan Hello ! Thanks for sharing your thoughts here. To be honest can't agree more. One of our core thesis at Aviyel is that community > = team. Our platform should help open source projects build active+motivated communities, build more confidence to the businesses and developers who would want to use them, potentially go commercial and share success with the entire community. The dynamics around web3 and community transforming into an org are very interesting ideas that are shaping up around us. We now have newer and very interesting ways in which communities can work together , scale up and operate. You should see more of this from Aviyel soon. And yes, we should definitely connect. Would love to learn more from you.

@rajagopal_natarajan Thanks for your valuable feedback! and firstly believing in the things we're doing. Of course, "Developing in the in Open" ~ "Create assets and earn in the Open" that's the equation we're trying to crack.
