Most current token distribution models are deeply broken

Simply rewarding "Proof of Capital" doesn't distribute tokens to the right people and hurts token holders

Just because it worked out OK for @iearnfinance doesn't mean it will work for others
You want tokens distributed to long term network participants and active community members

One approach that gets at this that I like a lot is by combining "Proof of Education" and gamification
@Covalent_HQ does this with their dungeons and dragons data competition

@Nsure_network does it with their underwriter program where participants are rewarded based on a simulation of network activity

These are both creative models to increase education about core products while also creating new "shareholders" which are higher likelihood to contribute to the project in the future

Seems like everyone is on one side of the short $CRV ship. OI unwind might be painful

@CurveFinance
@CreamdotFinance $CRV liquidity perpetually being drained
Wick to $0.50, but funding still -0.75% and OI hasn't reset yet

Probably still need to unwind on the way up

1/ $CRV is by far the most extreme juxtaposition of being both an amazing investment with huge addressable markets and not being investable at the same time
2/ In less than 6 months, it dominated the stablecoin swap market

And it will play a central role in the two strongest emerging themes in DeFi:

1. Cross-chain interoperability
2. Synthetic Assets
3/ Both of these themes already have demonstrated strong traction & PMF out of the gate but are still only in the early stages

Cross Chain Interop - @WrappedBTC @renprotocol @thorchain_org @CreamdotFinance @ptokens_io etc

Synthetic Assets - @MakerDAO @synthetix_io @arcxgame etc
