(1/5) #Tokenomics is usually perceived as an endeavor about how many tokens to create under what circumstances and pricing. I would suggest it’s better to call this token “accounting” or sometimes token “finance,” but not token “economics.”

(4/5) And when it comes to tokens with financial aspects, we might be able to call the token a “financial tool” within a “financial procedure.”

(5/5) The token designer should be aware of significant innovations that have been made in financial tools and procedures, especially in the past 100 years. So investigating and understanding the history, mindset, and wisdom behind financial tools and procedures is essential

Replying to @sariazout
@sariazout and I had so much fun talking to @skominers on "Tokens, But How?" Scott is a professor at Harvard Business School and as of recently a member of @a16z's crypto research team. We pressed Scott on how builders might implement some of his research - highlights below!

According to Vitalik, Soulbound tokens (SBTs) are “the future” of Ethereum. Earlier this month, he co-authored a 37 page paper describing them and their role for Ethereum. Here’s a TLDR…🧁

"It turns out that bitcoin is not [as] anonymous as had initially been assumed," Cornell Professor @EswarSPrasad says. "This is one good thing because it now turns out that bitcoin is being used much less for illicit transactions than [in] its earlier Wilder West days."

Regarding the impact of #decentralization on data governance and the economics of data, I argue that data in "most" services and platforms shouldn't be private property. In fact, it needs to be considered a public good (public in that context). (1/2)

Although I have never been a #Bitcoin maximalist nor have a fanatical mindset about any crypto, I couldn't listen "impartially" to people criticizing #cryptocurrency. In the fifth year of working on Blockchains, I could add more open-mindedness to my approach to crypto.
