GreenPill
Kevin Owocki
GreenPill is about crypto-economic systems that create positive externalities for their neighbors & for the world.
We explore the intersection of programmable money, game theory, & mechanism design. We search for powerful new ways to fund, design, develop, & market regenerative web3-era applications and digital assets. We launch the meme of regenerative crypto-economics into the world.
Ethereum is the ultimate substrate for human coordination. Learn about the web3 builders who are solving coordination failures and creating a more regenerative infrastructure for the world using Ethereum.
