Cryptoassets: A crowd sourced evaluation & due diligence framework
Cryptoland still feels like the wild, wild west on many levels. Entrepreneurs planning to tokenize their business model and raise funds through TGEs have to deal with crypto economic design, service providers, regulatory issues, smart contract security, community management, communication & PR strategies and much more. Investors in the space often lack time and skill to properly evaluate specific digital assets due to their unique characteristics of combining venture, commodity and stock trading at the very least.
With an interdisciplinary group of crypto enthusiasts, developers, entrepreneurs, researchers and investors we pulled together a framework which is supposed to contribute to an open discussion. Maybe it’s an early version of a map leading through the TGE jungle. 🌴 🌲
