Stolenhamburger believes it was important to under-promise and over-deliver, which is why he asks for retroactive compensation rather than forward looking compensation. They understand the risk that this may pose, but they’d rather not get paid than possibly overpromise in any way. They also are aligned with the long term growth of the protocol and wish the beans to be sown.

Payment: 10,000 Sown Beans for previous work

Commitment: Stolenhamburger will continue to help Beanstalk and will request payment after completing work in similar fashion going forward.
