Episode notes

The chapter explores the importance of industry standards and the impact of dominant players endorsing specific standards. It discusses the challenges faced by crypto projects due to varying emission strategies and power dynamics, highlighting a project with innovative tokenomics and a positive outlook.

The analysts also touch on the utility of FriendTech's token and whether it represents true value or pure speculation.
