Maybe instead of projects we could just have a way to invest in founders and devs? Devs often have much longer careers than their projects, and miss many times before they hit bullseye-- they want to move on from projects that failed but want to bring their community with them. In VC, they say "we invest in people" because they are building a long-term relationship and understand that many companies have to pivot, and it's more about grit and perseverance than your initial idea. Twitter started out as a completely different type of company and pivoted. Some of the new social launcher apps are kind of enabling this-- I'm listening to the pitch, but really I'm looking at who is behind it. I'm investing in them. I think there is space for this to be fleshed out more. We could have an era of decentralized Medicis or something, I don't know.
