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

We have never seen energy technologies like solar and wind before. For the first time in history, we can manufacture the generation of energy. Once built, solar and wind equipment cost very little to operate. In other words, they are basically zero marginal cost electron sources.

These teams are taking their innovations straight to consumers and enterprises who may not vote for the same people nor share the same climate values, but who buy their products and services because they are just simply cheaper and better.  

We estimate now (April 2022) they have over 5 billion miles of data – up from 3 billion miles in April 2020. 1.5 million+ vehicles on the road today collecting data. By end of year 2022, we expect this to increase to 3 million. 1 00,000+ FSD Beta testers on road today. Competitors: Comma AI (50 million+ mi), Waymo (20 million+), Cruise (2... See more

The next wave of $1B+ crypto companies will disrupt incumbents by keeping an existing consumer experience in web2 while rebuilding its back office in web3.

Each energy transition has enabled massive improvements to existing materials (wrought iron and later steel made using coal), created entirely new materials (polymers from oil-refined petrochemicals) and/or made low-cost manufacturing viable at scale (aluminum using electricity).
