Tokenomics

In Chapter 1, Mona explains that a crypto token is a virtual currency or denomination of a cryptocurrency that represents a tradable asset on its blockchain.

Relationship between Crypto and FinTech

In Chapter 2, Mona defines Tokenomics as the factors that impact a token’s value and usage, including its creation and distribution, supply and demand, incentive mechanisms, and burn schedules. She also distinguishes between minting and mining, explaining that minting is the process of generating new coins through the proof of stake consensus mechanism, while mining is the proof of work consensus mechanism that is more energy intensive.

Startup Business Models and Go-to-Market Strategies

In Chapter 3, Mona discusses the practicalities of minting and burning tokens. She explains that minting adds new tokens to circulation while burning removes tokens from circulation indefinitely, reducing the supply and potentially affecting the price of the token.
