When to launch a token? The guide is here!


Hi!

Welcome to Web3 Bits, where I share a few of the most interesting web3 bits for you to consumer over the weekend.

I've been getting more bullish on crypto markets recently. I shared thoughts about it last week in the Web3 Weekend telegram channel, you can read why I'm getting bullish (and positioning accordingly) in blog post here.

Interesting things

  • Are stablecoins about to change? Two recent podcasts (On the Brink & Empire, see links here) have me thinking that we might have reached 'peak USDC'. Not in absolute terms, but relatively speaking. Stable coins will be interest bearing and we'll need fractional reserve stable coins for them to scale. Circle doesn't offer either.
  • There has been so much investment and building around infrastructure, not enough in areas that are more important: governance, tokenomics and token tools. Web3 innovates on coordination - I wish there was more focused on that. I have found a few new tools I intend to look into, if you have recommendations, please let me know. These tools include: jubi.io, Karmah, Unlock Protocol and Story Protocol.
  • ​Is Filecoin+ needed? A breakdown by the launch team.
  • 'Snaps' have come to Metamask allowing new plugins, including cross chain native swaps between BTC & ETH 😲.
  • Haven't watched yet but apparently this is the highlight from Permisionless - why we're here by Erik Voorhees.

  • Matty of Matty Tokenomics has released his web guide/book on tokenomics, a must visit.

Hi! Welcome to Web3 Bits, where I share a few of the most interesting web3 bits for you to consumer over the weekend. I've recently started sharing my investment journey (equities and crypto) on Substack, it's different, yet similar, to how I look at tokenomics. If investments and portfolio management interest you - you're welcome to read along here. I'm also adding a new corner to the web3 weekend bits: Frens corner!

Hi! Welcome to Web3 Bits, where I share a few of the most interesting web3 bits for you to consumer over the weekend. This week I decided to dive into a new cool tokenomics model I've been having lots of fun with on Farcaster for the past month: $DEGEN. It's got a lot more going for it than just being a meme coin and good vibes. The team has implemented a few cool and simple mechanics that have really made things click. One of my key questions though are: is this sustainable and what needs to...

Hi! Welcome to Web3 Bits, where I share a few of the most interesting web3 bits for you to consumer over the weekend. It's been a good six months since my last missive. Life's been busy, but I'm glad to be back! If there's anything you'd like me to cover, write about or questions to answer - just let me know in a reply email and I'll get to it next time! The bull is back! In September last year I wrote about why I'm getting more bullish which turned out to be fairly prescient: Outside money...
