Manage episode 355017189 series 3394208
In order to allow you to hire and retain the best talent to build your web3 company, having a sound token based compensation is crucial.
Resorting yourself to manually distributing and sending tokens is a painful process, and using excel spreadsheets runs the risk of making transfer mistakes or missing payments.
Token-based compensation is a new and powerful form of incentive alignment and is inherently different from traditional stock options compensation.
To help us understand token based compensation, I spoke with Robin Ji, the CEO and co-founder of Liquifi.
Liquifi is a platform that allows you to automate token distributions and track vesting schedules, and will save yourself time in managing your crypto payroll operations.
