In past episodes, hosts Meltem Demirors and Jill Carlson have touched on crypto business models, crypto asset classifications, and governance as both a function and a business. These topics are ultimately shaped by how a project chooses to raise capital. In this episode, we explore the various models that have been used by teams to fund development and to bootstrap the network - a phrase that grinds our gears. At the heart of this discussion is a deeper question of funding models the crypto community can beg, borrow, or steal from the existing world of financing to develop sustainable sources of capital for building networks.-----If you enjoyed this conversation, share it with your colleagues & friends, rate, review, and subscribe.
