External Service Providers (ESPs)

External Service Providers can be any individual or organization that contributes to the CARROT network, either on a one-time basis, continually, or even continuously. Contributions can include technology development, business development, marketing, IP transfers, community building, community organization, etc. Participation can occur for reputational reasons and/or for compensation. As CARROT undergoes progressive decentralization, ESPs will become the largest and eventually the only contributors to the network.
