I understand the sentiment. And it’s totally worth pursuing.
In every community there are people who contribute at different levels (which could change over time). This creates an underlying currency (status, reputation, karma, …). The question is whether or not should we make it visible?
We don’t think that there is a good or bad answer to this, it’s highly depending on the community, what it does, its size, its context.
Our goal at Open Collective is to give communities the tools they need to operate in a transparent way towards their community.
It’s all opt in. It’s not for us to decide. We are just here to give you the tools you need to expose the currencies you want to expose. We started with petrodollars, but turns out there are many more currencies out there!
