From Minimal Viable Product to Minimal Viable Community

Minimal Viable Community- Web3

From Minimal Viable Product to Minimal Viable Community


“Web3 has flattened the power hierarchy and changed the dynamics of the network. Consumers aren’t just buyers in the market — they’re shareholders. They now care about the well-being of the companies they buy from, even if it’s a startup.”

“The buying process isn’t as simple anymore. If consumers want a product from a promising web3 initiative, they’ll need to acquire products by investing in the project.

So now, the firm isn’t at the top of the buyer-seller relationship. They aren’t cutting-out consumers from development, selling them a basic product, then tinkering with the product until it reaches the consumer’s standards. Rather, they’re integrating the consumer in the development process. As a result, the Minimal Viable Product ethos is being thrown out the window.

Enter Minimal Viable Community: A concept linked to grassroots initiatives. You could think of it as crowdsourcing. It’s all about curating community and inspiring a community-owned business model in the new and improved web3 firm.

It isn’t as easy anymore for startups. They can’t just target the consumer’s needs; They need to involve the consumer, the developer, and the creator in the company’s processes and decision-making. Building a Minimal Viable Community is all about rethinking the “we” mentality in the business ecosystem.”

The New Creator Manifesto

The New Creator Manifesto

Gina Bianchini,  CEO of Mighty Networks, discusses the burnout and frustration creators are going through to keep up with the treadmill of creating content every day.

Big Idea: Forget the creator economy, a community economy can be much more sustainable.

You don’t need thousands of people in a community to make a living. Whereas, you need millions of followers to make money on the big platforms.
