because the fees, however little, would be a friction to everyone building on the protocol and using the protocol.
the big point is — maybe the value *shouldn’t* be captured at all!

0x would be no different from Web 2.0 giants if it did that — someone would simply, at some mature & usable point, copy the open-source code and get rid of the free Blockchains don’t create revenues. They destroy revenues

I hear you, but you can't just copy the code. You would then have to convince all of that built up liquidity (relayers) who are getting drunk off of fees to move over to a lower fee protocol. That literally would be economically irrational.

The fees could just pay devs directly for their work. So its a new kind of organization. An open source project that receives fees to pay devs for work.

Yea, I would argue bc of the irrational market. Not convinced there is long term value in ZRX simply for on-chain governance. FWIW, I am very long ZRX. Great community, so they will figure it out. Hopefully I am wrong re: value for governance.

This!
Extracting rent from a decentralized platform is a non-starter. It's amazing to me how many people in crypto haven't picked up on that.https://theoryofself.com/dont-invest-in-decentralized-startups-f71294498deb …1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
