Sharing my thoughts on DeFi & GameFi. Always down to collab and open to any criticism.
Bend The Knee
We’ve all heard about the story of the Trojan Horse. The real danger of the trojan horse is that they make you feel safe, no threat is ever expected, and it is precisely when you feel the safest that you’re the most vulnerable. Once the trojan horse is let loose, there is nothing you can do but watch as the chaos unfolds. While this may sound a little cynical, our beloved stablecoins can turn out to be crypto’s very own trojan horse. Don’t get me wrong, I know the benefits that stablecoins br...

Monetize Your Mother If You Want Monetize
The year is 2040, you wake up inside your VR pod and almost instantly hear *DING* *DING*. You look up to see a notification, “good morning, you have received 15 $wake coins”. You get out of your pod to go and make some coffee and just before you can start the machine, *DING* “congratulations, you have completed 15 steps, you have received 15 $walk coins”. Not a bad start to the day. You get your coffee and choose one insect from your fine selection of bugs for breakfast. As your sipping your ...

The 5 key crypto frameworks
With the rise of any new industry comes its fair share of frameworks for analyzing the industry. With the rise of crypto, many of the brightest minds have shared their own breakdowns of ways to look at crypto as a technology or an investment. In this article I decided to compile 5 of the most important ones. Ownership economy The ownership Economy is a thesis proposed by the Variant Fund. At a high level it talks about how users of the economy can now own parts of the economy that they partic...

Understanding Crypto Maximalism
Crypto maximalism is by far the strangest but most fascinating thing in the crypto space. People back their chain of choice like it’s their local football team. Ever since taking a deep dive into this space I never really understood maximalism. I personally watch a ton of football (actual football, not handegg) but don’t support any team, however I noticed striking similarities between the hardcore football fans and crypto maximalists. So this is my 50IQ attempt at understanding maximalism. I...

Decentralised Governance Meme
Okay the title is kinda clickbait, decentralized governance itself isn’t a meme, in fact it is a necessity. It’s the popular mechanism of decentralized governance through token voting that I think is somewhat of a meme. If you’ve been in this space long enough you would know that most tokens are “governance tokens”. Holders of these governance tokens can vote on upgrades, proposals, and changes to the protocol that are made by the community or the founding team. Majority of the applications t...
