What's the incentive for third parties to contribute, knowing just one guy stands to benefit if the project gets monetized in such a manner?

Most of the same incentives of typical OSS contribution? It's not like other OSS projects pay out any earnings made with the product evenly across contributors.

Also, from the trajectory of the project it doesn't look like they are significantly deoendent on outside code contributions.
