Long Finance Webinar 'Modelling the Economics of Cryptocurrencies'
Webinar
With Thanks To Our Event Sponsors:
How can we model the economics of cryptocurrencies? What are the key questions to be answered? How can modelling provide insights? What are key variables to be considered? How to define plausible 'real-world' scenarios? Which models might be more relevant in the context of cryptocurrencies? These are some of the questions being explored as part of a research project which explores the economics of cryptocurrencies, focusing on DasCoin, a hybrid cryptocurrency launched at the end of March which combines centralised and decentralised features of cryptocurrency approaches. The project runs an economic simulation of DasCoin under various scenarios taking into account variables such as conversion rates, market capitalisation and volatility.
During this webinar, Z/Yen's research team will discuss modelling the economics of cryptocurrencies. A Q&A session will then give the opportunity to the audience to share comments and insights.
