We should think about the amount of equity a founder gives to investors to get their company started. UBI changes the dynamic a fair amount.
Twenty-somethings with dreams often have one thing between themselves and bringing their products to market. That is, how to feed themselves and stay in a decent living situation until they get some basic revenue?
Well, right now founders can solve this by raising seed capital. Instead of having guaranteed housing and healthcare from the government, founders today can trade pieces of their company to investors in installments, until they have revenue and a better negotiating position.
UBI could actually end this investing model. Seed investing might not happen as much in a UBI country because there would simply be no need for it.
