> Unless otherwise stated, my personal expectation would be that amounts under about $1000 wouldn't possibly be expected to have equity in return.

For me, I'd expect equity starting at the point where I'm providing something significant, rather than simply part of a mob. If I'm providing the equivalent of living expenses for a year or two, for instance, or enough money to purchase serious infrastructure, like an office. I think the floor for that amount starts at 20k as an extreme minimum.

Naturally, this is what VCs are about.
