The core team and the open source community work together to develop an ecosystem

On July 2, Suji Yan, founder of Mask Network, shared his entrepreneurial experience at BlockBeats Web3 Master Class series. According to Suji Yan, many of the interesting features in Mask were actually proposed by anonymous community members. In addition to proposing, I also participated in the development process. As a startup, its development process may be divided into several stages. At the beginning, the founder and the core team work together to define the interaction between their SDK and external applications, and then develop into the cultivation of culture. It's important to listen to community members, not just for Mask, but for people like MetaMask and Keystone. Because as a project owner, you imagine you're going to hire 10,000 engineers. While Binance does have 3,000 employees, about 1,300 of whom have engineering backgrounds, Coinbase started with 4,500 employees and recently laid off 1,000, but that's still a large number. But the project can do that very well, so the project should keep a core team of about 100 people, but you empower the additional community of developers, and those 1,000 people might be able to come up with, or be able to create, 100 different projects. You can give them some money at the beginning, and then when one of their projects shows good commercial prospects, you can invest in them, and you can introduce them to other investors.
