<a href="https://twitter.com/ATabarrok"><b>Alex Tabarrok</b></a><b>, Professor of Economics at George Mason University, joins hosts </b><a href="https://twitter.com/HalderAlaka"><b>Alaka Halder</b></a><b> and </b><a href="https://twitter.com/weschow"><b>Wes Chow</b></a><b> to discuss cryptoeconomics – the combination of cryptography and economics – which provides a lens into how web3 is opening up fundamentally new ways of trading, cooperating, and communicating</b>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">This will be an exciting, accessible conversation on the foundations and applications of cryptoeconomics. No economics PhDs required! We will discuss:</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span>
<ol>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What is cryptoeconomics? How has it emerged and evolved over the past decade? Why should we learn about it?</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the crypto world, how do economic assets and transactions work? For example, how should we think about holding tokens? Is this similar to the currency of a country? Property? Citizenship? A slice of GDP?</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What is decentralized finance? Does it complement or threaten traditional finance?</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Do cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance solve the problems of traditional finance, such as bubbles, excess leverage, and bank runs?</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why have web3 and defi managed to evolve so quickly with little input from academics, whereas web2 was heavily influenced by academia?</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">How should authorities approach privacy and regulation in crypto markets?</span></span></li>
