The economic incentive for direct air sequestration is built-in. It needs legislatively coerced. The extraction crowd doesn’t want to devote resources to anything related to their wife on the planet planet killing methods. Trans global corporate rape and pillagers cannot have the best practice and true goal of the planetary system as their focus. By their own self impose duties and practices. The only duty is fiduciary. Consequence of actions irrelevant and not considered by such entities.
Absolutely love Frontier, but the idea of relying predominantly on private companies like Stripe to shape markets for urgently needed technologies makes me really nervous. While the Stripe Climate/Frontier example has been unbelievably successful, I’m not sure it’s the kind of thing most businesses would want to get into (because it is so far outside their area of expertise and probably has low/uncertain ROI). I’ll be curious to see if we start to see other companies try to spin up versions of frontier for other technologies, but I’m skeptical we’ll see something as well funded and thoughtful as Frontier coming out of the private sector that often.
Yeah I should've been clearer and will edit the post to specify -- every time I mention "private actors" or "privately-catalyzed" or whatever I'm using private in the "non-public" sense of the word. By private I basically mean three things: philanthropy, ambitious nonprofits (e.g. Rewiring America, CHAI, etc.), and corporates. There's definitely a key role for private companies like Stripe to play in market shaping, but in global health -- and this will likely be true in climate tech as well -- we're talking just as much if not more about the Rewiring Americas and the CHAIs and the unusual hybrids like Breakthrough Catalyst and FMC ... and the small subset of philanthropy world that thinks bold/creative enough to get behind market shaping in a big way.

Pathetic. Just stop.
