This serves my point not yours, the process is often very misunderstood by those being promised the equity, and it's often "converted" in ways that dilutes or outright takes away most of the value by the time the employees ever see financial gains from the equity.
That’s not what happens. Literally TFA covers the term “founders stock”. It really is a meaningless term to refer to common stock held by a founder.
