Here's one I heard from a friend: ICOs are interesting because for the first time they really incentivize the creation of new open protocols. SMTP, HTTP, SSL etc all arguably at least as valuable as Google/FB, but no value capture, so people didn't work so much on new protocols.

Along the same lines, creating a marketplace for open source contributions (eg Gitcoin) could increase the pace of open source development and create a new type of gig-economy job -- "working for a codebase"

Not sure. We want few protocols that people agree on, not many, that are incentivised to compete.

New protocols designed by a single party/entity are rarely valuable even if "open".
