Brian Armstrong Highlights Top Crypto Concepts for the Future

Brian Armstrong, the CEO of Coinbase, recently shared a list of ten innovative ideas he believes will shape the future of cryptocurrency. In a blog post and presentation dated August 30, Armstrong encouraged developers to harness these concepts, especially during bear markets, to evolve the industry.

Here’s a quick rundown of his top 10 ideas for the crypto landscape:

Flatcoin: A decentralized stablecoin that can adjust to inflation to maintain its purchasing power. This could rely on asset backing or algorithms. Existing projects like Ampleforth and Truflation can currently monitor inflation on-chain.
On-Chain Reputation: A system that allots reputation scores to wallet addresses or ENS names based on their on-chain activities. This can be equated to Google’s PageRank and could be applied for lending, rating, and fraud detection purposes.
Onchain Ads: This Web3 advertisement concept would reward based on on-chain actions, contrasting with Web2 ads that operate on views or clicks.
Onchain Capital Formation: Armstrong envisions a system that democratizes the fundraising process, thus improving the model of ICOs and aiding startups to raise funds on-chain in a more transparent manner.
Crypto Job Marketplace: Armstrong believes in a platform where individuals globally can search for crypto-related jobs, thereby facilitating payments in crypto and simplifying cross-border transactions.
Privacy for Layer 2: This idea emphasizes the importance of private transactions on Layer 2 platforms instead of being confined to public blockchains.
On-Chain Peer-to-Peer Exchange: A direct exchange mechanism that operates completely on-chain.
On-Chain Gaming: Games that enable players to genuinely possess in-game assets as NFTs, paving the way for unique economies and metaverse creations.
Real-World Asset Tokenization: Representing tangible assets like stocks, real estate, and commodities using tokens.
Software for Network States: Tools designed to assist emerging cities and communities in overseeing governance, voting, taxes, and services on-chain.

Armstrong’s projection for the crypto world is optimistic. He noted, “In the next five years, many will regret not starting a crypto venture in 2023,” and he concluded by saying, “Bear markets are the prime time for construction.”

This release by Armstrong could also be a promotional strategy leading up to the Coinbase Ventures Builder Summit scheduled in California this October.

What is the goal of this portfolio?

The “Three Token Pillars” portfolio is democratically proportioned between the Three Pillars of the Token Economy & Interchain:

CryptoCurreny – Security Tokens (STO) – Decentralized Finance (DeFi)

With this portfolio, we will identify and take advantage of the opportunities within the Three
Pillars of ReadySetCrypto. We aim to Capitalise on the collective knowledge and experience of the RSC
community & build model portfolios containing the premier companies and projects
in the industry and manage risk allocation suitable for as many people as
possible.

The Second Phase of the RSC Community Portfolio V3 was to give us a general idea of the weightings people desire in each of the three pillars and also member’s risk tolerance. The Third Phase of the RSC Community Portfolio V3 has us closing in on a finalized portfolio allocation before we consolidated onto the highest quality projects.

The ReadySetCrypto "Top Ten Crypto" Community Portfolio (V4)

What is the goal of this portfolio?

The “Top Ten Crypto” portfolio is a democratically proportioned portfolio balanced based on votes from members of the RSC community as to what they believe are the top 10 projects by potential.

This portfolio should be much more useful given the ever-changing market dynamics. In short, you rank the projects you believe deserve a spot in the top 10. It should represent a portfolio and rank that you believe will stand the test of time. Once we have a good cross-section, we can study and make an assessment as to where we see value and perhaps where some diamonds in the rough opportunities exist. In a perfect world, we will end up with a Pareto-style distribution that describes the largest value capture in the market.

To give an update on the position, each one listed in low to high relative risk:

SoV/money == BTC, DCR

Platforms == ETH, XTZ

Private Money == XMR / ZEC / ZEN

DeFi == MKR / SNX and stablecoins

It is the most realistic way for us to distill the entirety of what we have learned (and that includes the RSC community opinion). We have an array of articles that have gradually picked off one by one different projects, some of which end up being many thousands of words to come to this conclusion. It is not capitulation because we all remain in the market. It is simply a consolidation of quality. We seek the cream of the crop as the milk turns sour on aggregate.
