I want to build a software product and flow revenue to contributors

Hey @ianL! Gald to finally snare you in the graph :slight_smile:

@ianL is a regular at the crypto coworking meetup I host, and has been a good sport letting me rant about SourceCred and providing good skeptical feedback. My :heart: on your post just minted you your first cred :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp:

Can you invite me to said (presumably private) repo?

This seems similar to our new Initiative plugin (docs coming soon). Basically someone that has worked on something for the project (e.g. a partnership) will propose an Initiative, which has a JSON file specifying the underlying contributions, weights on those contributions, and a proposed “payout” (amount of cred to be minted). You can see our first batch of merged Initiatives here if you’re curious.

This is pretty much how Grain will operate.

A twist on this was actually a subplot of a Black Mirror episode. But instead of minting coin, people were suing their parents for dammages to their future earning caused by the parents being shitty.

Welcome to the machine!
