Not sure on how to monetarily quantify it to be honest, I guess the difference between being a 10's of millions a year and being 100's of millions a year.
As I said, I am willing to step down as CEO and just remain a CTO at least for the time being, however the other cofounder's stance is that I don't deserve even that much. They even went so far as to suggest I don't deserve even a code monkey job in the future.

Unless that was a heated comment that was later apologised for, it sounds like your differences might be irreconcilable, no matter how much you can potentially contribute...
I applaud your humility in admitting the mistakes were in fact yours. But you offer nothing here that suggests things will be different in the future. Reconfigure your role so you can still contribute but allow someone else to make the major decisions.
