Web3 Tokenomics
- StarkWare discusses Web3 platforms with proof-of-stake and a utility token.
- They unpack the meaning of 'Web3 platforms with proof-of-stake and a utilitytoken'.
- They highlight that Web3 platforms must offer utility to users, grow to asufficient size, and reward their operators.
- Stakers in proof of stake platforms must be rewarded either from user fees, orfrom minting of new tokens, or by extracting value from the users, or by somecombination of these.
- The working goal of a Web3 platform with a utility token should be to maximizethe social welfare that it delivers.
