Deployment Phase of Token Ecosystem Creation Part 1 & 2: Testing & Iteration + System Safety
Kicking off our series on the Deployment Phase we will discuss the importance of testing and network safety. Deployment is focused on system integration and continued model optimisation through testing and iteration.
Designing Simple Incentives for Complex Networks Part 2
In previous posts, we discussed the importance of stakeholder mapping and creating a taxonomy of actors, and setting your network’s objective function. These steps set a strong macro foundation for starting to build out specific incentives across your network, but now the focus turns to the microeconomics of specific roles within your network. More and […]
The Importance of Stakeholder and Value Mapping in Token Ecosystem Creation
Once you have your problem structured the next step is to turn your attention toward the actual participants of the network and how value flows around the ecosystem. This step should be rooted in user research.
Why is Problem Structuring critical in any token ecosystem?
Tokens are value creation and exchange mechanisms that allow network agents to participate in, and/or manage the system. They ensure that nodes operate effectively and actors participate in a coordinated manner. Therefore, they play an important role in aligning the incentives of the ecosystem participants.
Token design: the deployment phase, focusing on system safety
As Web 3.0 continues to develop and various projects build out important infrastructure to scale a decentralised web to the masses, many of these protocols can be viewed as public utilities to be used by new emerging market applications.
Design Phase: Finding Token-Network Fit
Token design is perhaps the most discussed and exciting aspect of the entire process. A huge database of cryptographic primitives have emerged, and new ones are introduced almost every week.
