The Token Engineering Commons (TEC) recently completed an experiment with injecting **subject matter expertise** into **Quadratic Funding**. The results are very promising. This article outlines what we learned: https://medium.com/token-engineering-commons/expertise-and-quadratic-funding-bd4f0c5c3e23 #QuadraticFunding
Missed our epic panel on "**Token Engineering as Public Goods**" last week? The conversation is now up on the @tecommons.lens tecmns YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/Pk1-MjwShT4 🔥🎉🔥 The discussion included topics, like: * What actually is token engineering? * Recent advances in token engineering * What this ecosystem needs right now * How should society pay for the public goods from this new engineering discipline? This panel discussion was to celebrate the opening of the TEC's Token Engineering Round on @gitcoin.lens #GR18. You can contribute to token engineering grants in that round here: https://explorer.gitcoin.co/#/round/10/0xc5fdf5cff79e92fac1d6efa725c319248d279200 You can give to the TEC to help ensure future token engineering grants rounds here: https://explorer.gitcoin.co/#/round/10/0x2871742b184633f8dc8546c6301cbc209945033e/0x2871742b184633f8dc8546c6301cbc209945033e-92
The Token Engineering Commons had our launch for the Token Engineering Round on #GR18 today! We did a launch event space over on "brand x." Special shout-out to @benwest.lens for joining this erstwhile, geeky crew and making the case for giving to the round. Thanks, Ben. Also, a thanks to @azeem.lens for hooking the TEC up with a shiny new lens profile. We're just ramping up here on @lenster.lens, but liking the vibes so far! Congrats to @gitcoin.lens for the launch of GR18 and a thanks for all the work you all do. You rock. Public goods are good.
Did someone say, launch party?! The TEC's Token Engineering Round on @gitcoin.lens starts next Tues. To mark its opening, we're gathering some token engineering luminaries to celebrate -- and talk about token engineering! Join us over on 'brand x' for a "X?" Space: https://twitter.com/i/spaces/1BRJjZwRQRQJw **"Token Engineering as Public Goods"** The panel: @trentmc0.lens, founder of Ocean Protocol Angela Kreitenweis, founder of Token Engineering Academy Octopus, token engineering mathematician Liviade, research and governance at Commons Stack and the Token Engineering Commons YGG Anderson, data scientist at the Token Engineering Commons **We'll be talking about:** What actually is token engineering? Recent advances in token engineering What this ecosystem needs right now How should society pay for the public goods from this new engineering discipline? Some background on token engineering for those here on @lenster.lens who may not be familiar with it: Token engineering is a multidisciplinary field for building safer, more resilient blockchain systems. It brings engineering discipline to the design, verification, and optimization of these complex new forms of economic coordination. When you support token engineering, you’re helping to build an important new form of public goods. Civil engineering exists so people can feel safe crossing a bridge at rush hour without having to read its blueprints. Token engineering serves a similar role for complex crypto-economic systems. It builds an engineering-backed assurance layer that enables us trust that these systems are safe and that they will do what they say they do. This newly emerging discipline is critical to fostering the public trust needed for widespread adoption of Web3 technologies. Join us Tuesday to learn more! https://twitter.com/i/spaces/1BRJjZwRQRQJw
Some very innovate approaches to publishing emerging here on Lenster. Cool!
Cool.
What do people think? Was Midjourney really smart in outsourcing their user engagement layer to Discord? Or will they eventually regret it and reverse course? Sure, it's clumsy compared to a custom web interface. But Discord probably made them a sweetheart deal, too good to resist -- just to prove this approach of outsourced UI actually works.
Did we mention that the Token Engineering Round is featured on @gitcoin #GG18? And that the round is now open for applications? Oh yeah, of course not! This is our first post on Lens!
