the thing with successful token distributions to communities is that if you get the right amount out to the right people, you get evangelists who want to work to help you and join your movement versus consumers who expect things from you and don’t care at all

lore @optimism | ex: @coinbase | views are my own | what if it all worked out? 

we need more depth-first, periodic distributions over longer timeframes. evangelism isn't a monolith, not fungible where it's more fit, so naturally there should be successive, low-overlap cohorts of different evangelists becoming more and less fit to changing circumstances.

I wonder if private, collusion-filtering multisigs are also ideal, insofar as there's an expectation of greater reward in the aggregate for more group-scrutinized work, especially if they can't know each other or the balances they're guaranteed to extract.

It can be so incredibly toxic when done wrong though too. It’s a gamble that’s basically required for success.
