Ai16z Founder Advocates for Token-Based Funding in Science and Tech

According to Foresight News, ai16z founder Shaw expressed a desire for tokens to be used in funding genuine scientific and technological advancements with clear investment returns. Shaw emphasized that this approach should not be about idea sharing or meme games, but rather a smart contract-enforced method allowing ordinary people to invest in the next big companies like Uber or OpenAI and benefit from it. He highlighted the current unfairness where only a few have access to high-value returns, advocating for equal opportunities for everyone to support ambitious founders in realizing their ideas from scratch and gaining life-changing rewards.
