Traditionally yes, but Crowd-Funding is reducing this dependency. Crowd-Funding can be thought of as an interest-free loan repaid with product. Though the approach I propose is more like Crowd-Ownership since the micro-investors receive real co-ownership in the Physical Sources instead of just a one-time payout of the Object(ive)s. In the case where Crowd-Funding cannot meet our needs, we can treat some non-zero percentage of Profit as Payer Investment while the rest is used to pay the VC Angels or bankers. I hope we can work on this iteratively, solving small issues such as this along the way without throwing out the entire approach. _______________________________________________ P2P Foundation - Mailing list http://www.p2pfoundation.net https://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/p2p-foundation
