       | One of the good things about forming a legal entity is that it

       | don't actually know how valuable someone's contributions will be
       | until you start working together. One founder providing more
       | value than another happens all the time in startups and is why
       | vesting exists.

       | This squad seems to operate like a DAO, but without any mechanism
       | to reward ownership via a token. The author did mention being a
       | pre-DAO collective, so maybe they'll form an official DAO to
       | determine stake.

       | If the goal is to just make stuff for fun and to learn, then
       | perhaps it doesn't matter. But if one of the projects becomes
       | valuable, I could see it becoming a problem once money is
       | involved to determine who owns what.

           | been disconnected lone wolves.
