Tokenomics DAO Podcast

On this episode Rotorless, a crypto legal expert joins us to discuss legal aspects of DAOs and crypto in general. We talk about legal needs of DAOs, taxation, counter-parties and the legality in different jurisdictions. Rotorless walks us through what makes a token a security and how tokens can be best designed to not be classified as a security. Show notes: Connect with Rotorless: https://twitter...

For the first time ever, the core initiators of the Tokenomics DAO met in person to record a Podcast episode. We put our heads together last week to think through some of the core challenges we are trying to solve to allow this DAO to grow quickly but sustainably. As you know by now, we are all about giving people ownership, to make the Principals instead of Agents (we talked about this about 4 ti...

In our first-ever community talk, we are learning about the changes to the Tokenomics of Ethereum as it transitions from Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake. Community member @rush0 (discord) does a great job breaking down many entry-level and advanced concepts that are impacted by the transition. The big question is: Will the value creation within the Ethereum network be affected? Join Discord: https...

In our last piece , we’ve shed light on the demand side of tokenomics. We’ve looked into the buying point, meta-demand, and market analysis to see what influences a token’s demand and its price.  We want to take this further by looking at tokenomics more comprehensively.  Supply and demand are often analyzed separately. This overlooks the connection between supply and demand, leaving an incomplete...

While on vacation Lovis was thinking about what it would take to create a token ecosystem that enables the digital nomad life-style, or even just lets you stay in nice holiday locations for a reasonable price. Would it be possible to pool money from web3 investors to build a rental real estate business that pays yields to investors but also allows them to use the property every now and then? Flo a...

We are creating a question based framework that will help investors think through the tokenomics of any given project. Generally, evaluation frameworks are very powerful tools. We want to create the first tokenomics framework to help our DAO scale. We plan to use our own frameworks when consulting clients, but also hope to create it easy enough to use so that anyone who wants to evaluate the token...

How can we avoid that influence in our DAO can be bought? We are desiging the tokenomics of our DAO and when thinking through governance we came across this interessting problem. We want to reward active contributors who add value to the ecosystem with governance rights first and foremost. We also want to give simple investors a voice, for sure, but this should not outweight community members who...

First try of audio & text version of an article - would love to hear what you think! In a previous post , we talked about the flywheel built around our talent pools: DAO, education, content and consulting. In the short term consulting will be our main revenue source and content will be our main proof of work to potential clients. It is therefore important to incentivise for good content and for th...

Creating high quality content that is easy to understand is at the core of what got Tokenomics DAO started. We have received immense inflows of subscribers, members and even several consulting requests because of content. Content is what moves the flywheel in our business and keeps our DAO growing. So, how do we make sure this flywheel keeps spinning faster and faster so we can scale up as an orga...

The macro landscape is bizarre at the moment. Unprecedented innovation is happening in web3. At the same time there are glaring problems that threaten to dived and disrupt society as we know it.

In this conversation, we are looking at if web3 can help solve some of these issues. * ht...
