@sariazout: In theory, crypto makes it possible for users to partake in the success of the products and communities they are part of. In practice, token-based economies are very difficult to design. We’re going to see a lot of trial and error.
Some challenges I'm seeing:
People join communities for benefits, not belonging.
They want to learn something new, to achieve a goal, to grow status, to be entertained, to have fun, etc.
They only find and value belonging after they've been a member and formed relationships.
