Because you mentioned MVP, Im assuming that your current business is a service company, not a technology/product company. If that's the case, then you would definitely need to build out an MVP of the product and ideally show customers using the product as is. The major issue of a service compan...
Really depends on how many rounds of funding you think you'll need. Most startup founders have their equity diluted anywhere from 15%-33% after 2-3 rounds of funding.

I've seen or been involved with a few projects in the past few years that aimed to entice developers to work on premium domains in exchange for equity. That rarely if ever works. Developers have too many gigs that pay them quite comfortably. If they wanted to make sacrifices, they'd probably e...
