1/ Designing an effective token business model is one of the most important and least well understood aspects of building in crypto. Key to success is ensuring that the business model design aligns with and amplifies a product or protocol’s network effects and core user experience. @a16zcrypto CTO, @eddy demystified this process at CSX last week with a no holds barred deep dive on Tokencraft.

2/ A few of my favorite gems from @eddylazzarin’s morning talk: - “I’m counting on all of you to interrupt me and ask good questions because if you don’t, I’m going to interrupt myself and ask them for you.” - “Incentivizing the demand side of your network is like putting a gun to your head and playing Russian Roulette.” - “Achieving Product-Market-Fit after you launch a token is incredibly tough. Find PMF before you launch your token.”

3/ In the afternoon, @a16zcrypto Security Engineer Matt Gleason cold-called CSX founders and challenged them to diagnose and respond to a series of bone chilling security threats. Matt shared three critical questions to ask when you realize you’ve been hacked: 1) How can I determine what’s been compromised? 2) Can I recover the set of compromised systems/devices? 3) What do I need to do in order to prevent the same thing from happening again in the future?

4/ At the end of the day, a fireside chat with LayerZero co-founder and CEO @primordialaa brought it all home. He covered everything from his career as a professional poker player to his playbook for building and scaling LayerZero. @samgreen summed it up well: https://x.com/0xsamgreen/status/1917430038955450747?s=46&t=PnBRgKK5va1REYWasaHVoQ
