retroactive grants are cool but they require builders take on all the risk (build it and you *might* get *some* funding)

an alternative ✨proactive✨ approach:

the way to solve this is with investment in builders where the investor gets a fraction of the retrofunding

The only problem is externality pricing.

the only difference between this and what i’ve proposed is the form of the retroactive funding: an uncertain charity handout from a “dao” vs rev share from customers. i’ll take the later thx

yep, more like a collaborative investment in that contributors can share in the upside on a pro rata basis (via erc20 contribution tokens https://blog.withfabric.xyz/contribution-tokens). gating might not be useful/desirable/applicable in all cases

ahhh, I didn't read the screenshot I just read the cast text. Yeah, I think what that's useful. But I don't think it's really retrofunding it's more like traditional investment, right?

What if a project is beneficial but can't be gated? E.g. someone makes great memes which draw quality users to farcaster?
