Why does Ergo's lack of VC funding matter?

VC-funded chains have misaligned incentives: VCs need exits, so they push for hype over substance, centralized control, and token dumps. Ergo's fair launch means no insider allocations, no pressure to pump price, and no corporate governance. The community controls Ergo, not investors seeking returns.

  • No insider token allocations
  • No pressure to pump for VC exits
  • Community-driven development
  • No corporate governance capture
  • Aligned incentives: builders, not speculators
  • True decentralization from day one
