Can we simply apply what we know from #Econ101 to tokens and become successful investors and buidlers?
We asked a Tokenomist to find out! 🧵 👇
#Economics is a social science that studies the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services that focuses on the behavior and interactions of economic actors and how economies work. Economics is PREDICTIVE: Given rules, what outcome can one expect?
#Tokenomics is the study of token supply & demand dynamics, behavioral mechanisms, and incentive design. All characteristics are programmed and the outcomes can be observed transparently on-chain.
Tokenomics is DESIGN oriented: Given desired outcomes, what rules does one create?
Some aspects of econ certainly apply to tokenomics, however many of the basic investor metrics are different.
We will cover “basic investor metrics” (BIMs) in the next thread(s) over the next few days - stay tuned!
If you want to go deeper and learn the basics of tokenomics quickly, in a structured format, consider taking our course.
#Sui is a low-latency, high-throughput permissionless L1 whose instant transaction finality makes it a prime candidate for on-chain use cases like #DeFi and #GameFi.
It focuses on horizontal scaling enabling parallel unrelated transaction processing
Is @LiquityProtocol The holy grail of decentralized, resilient stablecoins in DeFi, and perhaps even the MakerDAO killer?
Following $USDC's depeg, $LUSD has been the biggest stablecoin winner in terms of market cap percentage gain.
Here's how it works🧵by @imajinl
Liquity is a decentralized stablecoin issuer that allows users to open collateralized debt positions (CDPs) by minting $LUSD stablecoins against their $ETH collateral, arguably one of the most pristine collaterals in crypto
Let's get into the details.
First, let me introduce you to troves, the core of the Liquity protocol.
The diagram below is a high-level overview of how troves work.
Think of troves as Liquity’s equivalent of MakerDAO’s vaults, but with a few nuances.
$DOT is used for payment of the transaction fees. Users can stake their $DOT and secure the network while enjoying staking rewards. Moreover, holders can participate in governance and parachain slot auctions.
🙌Demand Drivers
There are multiple demand drivers, such as payment of transaction fees, on-chain governance, parachain slot auctions, and staking yields.
