this is likely the whole key point, beside amount of money, deal, exclusivity etc.
I will likely repeat myself here and be petulant.
While I think you can (and up to some degree should) advice on the creation of capco, you also likely should not manage directly this process. This is not due to mistrust on your team’s skills or will; on the contrary, if there is anyone positioned to move forward the venture topic, is likely farstar.
But the risk for the dao to have the company created by the same party that should also be one of the main service provider is just too high. Really, as much as in the opco, we need a ceo with a vision and capable of dripping it top down into the rest of the org, which would likely include both you, maybe other SP, some folks from the dao and some external folks. This is the only way we can build something resilient in time. 6 years is mid horizon in investment, and at the same time is several geological eras in crypto due to the speed of our industry, only way to execute is if we are able to plug in new pieces if old ones fall off over time.
Again, to reiterate and be crystal clear: is not about mistrust in you guys. Is about having something extremely robust.
And again sorry for being petulant. I just want to convey what to me would be the only deal breaker on an idea that, at high level, I support.
Thanks for setting up the discussion.
