Economic Models

Definition

Economic models are theoretical frameworks that represent economic processes or phenomena. In digital asset ecosystems, these models describe the incentive structures, tokenomics, and governance mechanisms that govern the behavior of participants, the supply and demand of tokens, and the overall health of a decentralized protocol. They often incorporate game theory, monetary policy principles, and network effects to design sustainable and resilient systems. A well-designed economic model is crucial for a project’s long-term viability.
