Can we figure out a way for founders to tokenize themselves and share their upside with followers in return for labor/tasks rather than capital?

So, rather than following Elon and buying a separate share of Tesla, you complete a task he puts out to get a share of tokenized Elon.
By framing this in terms of labor rather than capital, you could dramatically expand the set of people aligned behind a founder.

And give them a share of wealth created, in return for their support in helping that founder (like Elon, or someone more junior) create that wealth.
The v0 of this would be to just record it as a play money ERC-20 token with no value beyond that which the community assigns to it.

“You get N personal tokens for doing this task.”

No exchange rate quoted. Maybe it’s eventually valuable, or maybe it’s just a fun karma thing.
