A long episode this week on What is @AmpleforthOrg and the Economics* Design of .

*because it's the analysis of the entire economics, not just the token design mechanism 👇🏼
The first episode of S2. Season 1 was all the fundamentals of token economics and economics design. Now is where the serious and fun things begin.

Grab your headlights. We're going deep.
Covering

- AMPL vs / (Which @BanklessHQ 100% got it wrong)
- AMPL vs USD
- What is Synthetic commodity money
- Economics utility vs financial utility
- Monetary policy
- Graph analysis
- Valuation model
- Global trade impacts
- Distribution and allocation analysis
This is a real in-depth analysis, so I hope it both adds value in your understanding of AMPL and actually finally understand why this is absolutely fascinating.

(Cont) and now for the newsletter version, bc not everyone is auditory focused.

Ampleforth is very interesting because it could definitely become a global base currency moving forward. Instead of USD, imagine a currency that is used by everyone in the world to trade.
Instead of having the world currency (USD) being tied to the internal politics of US, this new currency is neutral and changes its monetary supply based on the global demand of money.

(What I've been preaching since '17!)
You shouldn't compare with and . But please compare it with USD.

Why? 👉🏻compare within same token functions classification 👈🏻 Image
Broke the analysis down according to the economics design framework Image
And also explained the monetary policy and valuation mechanism. Obviously this project is not perfect. There are issues with it. See newsletter for details. @AmpleforthOrg
