In other words, idea #2 is to have a mini-IPO (liquidity event) for the early employees, by round A or B. B might make the most sense. Kind of like a super-bonus or extra warrants. So at least the early employees don't have to wait 7-10 years to see an outcome, but can expect a (smaller) windfall within 1-3 years, to put them on par with high-paying jobs if the company is successful enough to raise a B round.
