This is the future of the web. Platforms and networks that offer better incentives for participation will replace those of the old (current dominant) model. Rather than users-as-the-product, users will be in the driving seat - with agency to accept or reject changes that are offered as well as be rewarded for their contributions. But it will go much further than this as even the basic corporate structure (passive investors only interested in monetary gain and managers beholden to them) may be challenged by new organisational architectures where all kinds of incentives and agendas can be baked right into the protocol.
