A Fireside Chat With Dr. Voshmgir, Institute of Crypto-Economics, Univ of Vienna

This Token Economics Meetup features a Fireside Chat with Dr. Shermin Voshmgir, the Director of the Crypto-Economics Research Lab at the Vienna University of Economics. Dr. Vohmgir coordinates the interdisciplinary work of 30 researchers from eight departments (technology, economics, law, business). While tokens are a critical part of the crypto ecosystem, the community still lacks a clear taxonomy for tokens - from a business, technological and legal perspective - as well as modeling, forecasting, and evaluation tools. The aim of the core research done at the lab is to define a clear vocabulary, outline use cases, and develop these methods for modeling, forecasting, and evaluation. For a first scoping and definition of the token landscape the book “Token Economy” was written and published. As a second step we are working on a research roadmap that will outline our future research activities. More info here: https://www.wu.ac.at/en/cryptoeconomics/

Our chat will cover a broad range of issues associate with Token Economics, specifically focusing on the research done at the Lab,how that has evolved over time, and how it being deployed in the real world. We'll also discuss where Dr. Voshmgir sees the industry in 5-10 years, and the major issues we need to address to achieve Crypto's potential.

As always, well leave time at the end of the chat for questions from the audience . And post the chat, there will be plenty of time for the networking that is the cornerstone real of CryptoMondays in over 50 cities around the world!
