Upstock issues RSUs instead of stock options, which is better for most workers because they:
Workers won't have to buy stock options or pay tax on equity until the money is available (i.e. when the company achieves financial success)
Business owners don't have to grant shareholder rights, keeping voting & decision-making chaos to a minimum
Workers vastly prefer RSUs compared to stock options, which are more expensive & confusing, and will still need to be purchased later
