Alternatively called "Project Shares." The idea would be 1) to let people create & trade shares of a project in M$, and 2) pay out useful projects from a community pool. This lets creators of community initiatives to raise money for their work via startup-like equity funding. Vitalik describes this concept: https://medium.com/ethereum-optimism/retroactive-public-goods-funding-33c9b7d00f0c . I think it'd be super cool to test out on the Manifold infrastructure! # Rough sketch At any time: Create or trade on projects - Anyone can create a new “project”; their statement of claim for a public good; they are issued e.g. 10k shares. Example public goods: useful blog post; helpful comments; implementing a Manifold feature; creating and resolving a valuable market - Anyone can buy or sell their project shares on an open market Every month: An oracle (Philanthrobot?) pays out - Manifold sets aside e.g. M$ 400,000 - Each user can send their M$ towards which projects deserve funding this month - Money is matched via quadratic funding - Holders of the selected projects receive payouts proportional to their shares - Or: Selected projects gain a price floor See also: Impact Certificates: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/yNn2o3kEhixZHkRga/certificates-of-impact Close date updated to 2022-06-01 11:59 pm
