In early October 2021 I recorded a short series of LinkedIn notes for the BuidlersTribe community about token‑vesting design for crypto‑focused startups. I emphasized that these teams are primarily builders, not token issuers, and that longer vesting periods are a better fit for their incentive structures.
I decided to encourage startups to adopt longer vesting schedules for token allocations.
At BuidlersTribe, we push our startups to have a longer vesting period.
Many of them don't even have a short‑term plan to launch a token.
Our startups are #builders, not token issuers.
