A LiO² battery is also known as a lithium-air battery (Li for lithium, O² for oxygen). Unlike the Li-ion or LFP batteries in EVs today, a lithium-air battery uses oxygen ions to store energy, not lithium ions. This difference means their internal structure and chemistry needs to be entirely different from established battery technology. Furthermore... See more
Applying the idea of decomposition to understanding token design and value created on top of it leads us to two entities: Value Capturing Mechanism (VCM) and Value Creation Pattern (VCP). The Mechanisms (VCMs) explain how value is created and how the token accrues value (describes origins of value capturing), while the Patterns (VCPs) describe how ... See more
History is littered with examples of incumbent leaders who do not adapt to shifts in innovation from its competitors. Nokia’s failure to respond to Apple’s smart phone technology is an example.
Web 3 introduces a powerful new tool for bootstrapping networks: token incentives.The basic idea is: early on during the bootstrapping phase when network effects haven’t kicked in, provide users with financial utility via token rewards to make up for the lack of native utility.
