💡 In simple words: WikiDeal is built to be handed over to the people who use it, not kept by its founders. Like a treehouse the builders give to the whole neighbourhood.
🎯 In 20 seconds (scientific summary): Exit to Community (E2C) is the progressive transfer of a platform's governance, ownership and value to its user community. WikiDeal adapts the concept to a donation-based model: attractive for donations with rewards, while clearly not an investment, legally non-speculative. It forms one whole with Deprivatization and Dual Rewards, and the combination of the bonding curve and Need-Driven Funding creates a self-regulation that makes it much less speculative.

What is it?
Exit to Community (E2C) is the progressive transfer of a platform's governance, ownership, and value from its founders and early contributors to the user community itself. WikiDeal is designed as an E2C programme from inception: it is built to be handed over rather than held, accumulated, or sold to outside buyers. It is considered deployed, since it is written into the contracts.
Attractive for donations, not an investment
WikiDeal adapts the concept of ownership by the users: the model aims at being attractive for donations with rewards, while clearly not being an investment. It is intended to be legally non-speculative and structurally attractive for donations. Rewards, if any, depend on the project working; there are no guarantees, no shares and no share resale.
One whole with Deprivatization and Dual Rewards
Exit to Community forms one whole with Deprivatization and Dual Rewards. The combination of the bonding curve and Need-Driven Funding creates a self-regulation that makes Exit to Community much less speculative: based only on real flows and real needs. The whole rests on the organic deployment of a community, not on financial engineering.
How it works on WikiDeal
Governance and control are structured to shift toward users over time, so the community gradually becomes the steward of the platform. This shapes funding, decision rights, and long-term direction from the start. The concrete milestones of the handover are documented progressively as the platform evolves.
