#Vitalik on Funding Structures and Open Source Incentives#

In response to a community user's point about the importance of "efficient capital formation for building the future," Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin highlighted the importance of creating funding structures that can sustainably incentivize open-source, open standards, and security. He believes such structures should discourage walled gardens and excessive extraction while promoting positive-sum participation in the broader ecosystem. Vitalik argues that the tech world generally underestimates the importance of efficient capital formation for building the future, and that creating funding structures that can sustainably incentivize open-source, open standards, and security is truly important. These structures would effectively discourage walled garden mindsets and extractive practices, promoting positive-sum participation in the broader ecosystem.
