I stopped after reading this: > “Historically the only way to make money from a protocol was to create software that implemented it and then try to sell this software (or more recently to host it)… With [cryptographic] tokens, however, the creators of a protocol can ‘monetize’ it directly and will in fact benefit more as others build businesses on top of that protocol.” And what was wrong with developers finding a market, developing a software and then monetizing it? I have tons of ideas each day, some of them blockchain related too but it seems unethical to use other people's money to test my hypothesis.
