@lupyuen I can't help but wonder how different this would have read if it was establishing a co-op with some forward thinking ideas about how governance will work.
The problem with open governance is getting the government and tax offices to recognize it. That said I am a big supporter of the idea in theory, but in practice it can be hard or even impossible to do if there is any real cash flow.
that said open collective addresses some of that as do some potential blockchain solutions where the government doesnt really need to play along
