Your assumption is wrong, that is why you do not understand. The inventor could, or could not receive money. This is the beauty of an open and decentralizes invention. The inventor is not the owner.

But people who participate and invest from the start can make money if the project succeeds. So the economic incentives for those involved are greater than the incentives in a walled garden.

The guy I'm replying to was saying that crypto coins enables someone who invents a protocol to get paid, my dude. It's not an assumption on my part, I was replying to what he said.
