#Vitalik on Funding Structure#

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently responded to a community user's point about the importance of "efficient capital formation for building the future," emphasizing the importance of creating funding structures that can incentivize open source, open standards, and security in the long term. He believes that such structures can discourage walled gardens and extractive behavior, and foster becoming positive-sum participants in the broader ecosystem. He noted 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 what truly matters. Such structures can discourage walled garden mindsets and extractive practices, and broadly promote becoming positive-sum participants in the broader ecosystem.
