In our first proposal, we seek to explore modifications to EIP1559 for revenue sharing. In the past, blockchains have launched under this niche feature (Canto, Archway, Near, etc) and we hope to experiment, simulate, and create new models for diff ecosystems from this. 2/4

A benefit to dApps compared to web2 applications is the decentralization that create trustless and secure user experiences. However, using traditional storages in web3 means that we can't own our own data and it's centralized. Ceramic gives devs a way to tackle this problem -->🧵

An RToken is composed of a basket of potentially yield-bearing assets and is overcollateralized by RSR stakers. Note that RTokens do not have to be USD-pegged stablecoins, instead, their value can be pegged to any basket of assets.

Surprisingly, 2023's On-Chain Games favor strategy, RPGs, and card genres, emphasizing asset ownership and player interaction. Mobile dominates, with 69% of top games on both mobile and PC. While triple-A titles shine in web2, On-Chain's potential hit might be more indie-driven!

@jarrenmims argues that zk-rollups like @StarkWareLtd offers far better scalability due to Tenderment limitations and a lack of a good plan to build a modular system. He also notes zk-rollups offer better security models. Read his view below!

A few months ago, @dYdX announced a v4 transition to Cosmos from their Starkware zk-Rollup. This was the beginning of the question of whether App-specific L1s are more advantageous than App-specific rollups. @joykchen and I compared them based on all available info 🧵 A thread.

Valuing any crypto protocol is a tough task, given the lack of fundamentals and the volatility inherent in the crypto market. Solving the former problem requires the market to mature. However, is there a way to solve the latter? How? A thread...
