Exploration of Token Economics: Should AI Agents Framework Standards Be Issued with Tokens?

@0xzerebro officially announced the release of the ZerePy framework and standards, and many people focused their attention on why coins were issued without a license, and fell into a fantasy of creating a new ELIZA community myth. This question is actually quite intriguing. Let’s talk about my views:

1. For ownerless AI Agent application-driven DAO organizations like ai16z, the ELIZA framework standard represents a kind of community cohesion and expectations for subsequent open source ecological development.

As a framework standard, ELIZA's influence among the Github developer community is growing at a rate visible to the naked eye. It is officially endorsed by ai16z as a community currency, and at the same time it has received unanimous market expectations. There are many accidental factors, and it is not the originally planned development. route. Therefore, how ai16z designs Tokenomics in the future and sorting out the relationship between ai16z and ELIZA will be the top priority. However, there are still variables in how to integrate and require further observation;

2. The problem is that subsequent projects such as ARC, Swarms, etc. have all taken the Github repo initial token issuance route (IGO). This novel MEME issuance method itself is a community financing method, which is understandable.

But the key is whether the framework standard itself should be issued coins, and how to empower them after the coins are issued. At present, under the FOMO mood of the market, currency issuance seems to have become the standard. However, if there is no judgment standard, there will be a period of Li Gui who issuance of currency for the sake of currency issuance. This is obviously not advisable;

3. The results of ZerePy are exactly the same. In essence, the relationship between zerePy and Zerebro is similar to the relationship between OP Stack and Optimism. It will combine Zerebro’s successful deployment experience in single AI applications with the open source basic framework. The form is released to the outside world, allowing more single AI applications of Zerebro genes to appear on the market.

For Zerebro, this is a commercial expansion method to attract open source traffic and increase ecological monetization. It is possible to issue a new framework currency or authorize MEME currency, but the specific choice depends on Zerebro's market focus. A hasty "split" is not considered for an ambitious single AI. wise.

Unless the ZerePy ecosystem develops to a certain level and there is a trend towards platformization, and the Tokenomics of the old Zerebro cannot take into account the incentive performance of ZerePy, then the significance of issuing coins will become apparent. Until then, similar tokens could only be considered MEME.

Therefore, I believe that soon, whether the framework standard should issue coins will evolve into a set of internal logic:

To fully consider the effectiveness of Tokenomics, it is necessary to rely on the platform effect and focus on the platform to achieve chained operation. Token issuance is a necessity. For an ecology that focuses on single AI or other DAO organizational types, the framework is It is not necessary to issue coins, it is completely necessary to analyze the specific issues in detail.

Finally, I would like to remind my friends that the "asset issuance" method of the first Github issuance is indeed very novel, but scams are bound to be rampant in the early stages. The key is to learn to identify the quality of the Github warehouse code and analyze its feasibility of outlining the vision of commercial application implementation. The reliability of team members is a must.

ELIZA has set a precedent for the community MEME coin to be officially endorsed. It is not certain whether there will be similar projects in the future. Moreover, whether ELIZA can be truly empowered has become an unknown variable. If you see a framework standard casually, Just buy in without thinking, the risk of relying on speculation is too great.
