Haha never got the $10 personally but I’m familiar with the rationale (from Thiel/Hoffman). So in this particular case I’m less concerned about seeding as I am about viral coefficient and viral cycle time. I’m not seeing the metrics I want yet, so looking for ways to boost them. I think the fundamentals are working but it’s clearly not enough to leave network growth to the whims of users. They’ll often fail to bring others in even if they would like to. But by contrast I want the motivation to be organic and not necessarily a product of dark patterns or incessant prodding (imo in the best case these besmirch the app’s appeal and in the worst contribute to churn). Without getting specific, our app is already naturally amenable to friend invites - that was a prerequisite we considered before even scoping a prototype. So really just need to add fuel to a solid platform now.
