The Wang Protocol

Wang’s 4C Equity Theory

"Silicon Valley engineered the chip. We engineered the rules."
The operating system for capitalizing human experience in the Age of AI.

The Problem

Traditional Silicon Valley governance models (the "Option Pool" and "Vesting") were designed for the Industrial Age, where capital hired labor.

In the AI Era, human experience is distilled into computable assets (Models & Agents). Static equity fails to price this new form of capital.

The Architecture

Wang’s theory is not just about percentages. It is a full-stack governance system:

Layer 1: Allocation

The Interface (Cap Table)

The visible percentages. This is where most traditional lawyers stop.

Layer 2: Logic

Wang’s 4C Equity Theory

The core engine. A dynamic protocol that prices "Human Experience" as a capitalized asset in real-time.

Layer 3: Structure

The Legal Container

Dual-class shares, LPs, and Trusts that secure the architecture.

The Participants

The 4C Framework redefines the roles of the key stakeholders:

1. Founder The Architect. Protector of the vision through control protocols.
2. Co-founder The Dynamic Node. Risk-sharing partners with milestone vesting.
3. Core Talent The Asset. Providers of "Computable Experience" (AI Capital).
4. Capital The Fuel. Serving human capital, ensuring liquidity and support.
