Abstract

This project highlights some tools and techniques relevant to designing a token economy under a rational expectations hypothesis. Six articles are reviewed, these enumerate some conditions for equilibrium pricing of specific effervescent tokens, dampened tokens, breakable tokens, and redeemable tokens. A review of Polkadot parachain token designs indicates differences in the issues and risks addressed by token equilibrium pricing models and those addressed by the designs practiced in the Polkadot ecosystem.
