From the seed value emanates intrinsic (I save the world, I learn) and extrinsic (I make money) incentives. Seed value is the initial value experience around which an OVN can start forming.

This might be a new gadget, a social good, or simply a bundle of intangibles (have fun, make new friends, gain some form of reputation, …).
