Tokenomics 101

When researching crypto projects, tokenomics should be one of the first aspects you look at. It essentially is a tool to align incentives for participants of a network or project. 


Borderless Capital has evaluated thousands of projects and put together several areas one should watch for, including value distribution, circulating supply, and token distribution.

#DAOs #WorkInCrypto

How Internal Payment Structures Can Work in a DAO

Working in web3 and crypto is incredibly refreshing. However, working towards a decentralised, fair future while keeping an organisation equitable can be daunting.


Pangolin Exchange, a community-driven DeFi exchange, has put together a work-in-progress article with some tips (e.g. cost of living, inflation) on how to best remunerate employees when working completely remotely.

Measuring the Hidden Cost of Slippage

With the mission of creating a new, transparent financial stack, 0x analysed over 675,000 API trades and put together a report on slippage. 

 

Since their initial report, they have turned to always-on monitoring of automated market maker (AMM) slippage, which they then plan to leverage to calibrate their aggregation. In turn, returning the best deal to 0x API applications and their users.

Blockchain Bridges and Trust: What You Need to Know

People often get confused by the term trustless within this industry. In crypto, a trustless system is one where users do not need to rely on third party (banks) providers to action transfers or payments. 


Trustless bridges distribute trust across the system through different designs. Find out more about trustless bridges and LI.FI’s mission to aggregate all relevant bridges here.

#decentralised #governance

An Experimental Digital Democratic Governance: the Optimism Collective

As scalability within the cryptocurrency industry becomes more necessary, the Optimism Collective believes it’s not enough to just scale the tech and recreate web2 incentives. Values need to grow at the same pace as projects and networks. 

The Optimism Collective is a group of communities, companies, and individuals united by a mutually beneficial pact to adhere to the premise of impact=profit. It wants to drive rapid and sustainable growth of a decentralised ecosystem.
