-### supply
-
-* **Circulating supply:** How many tokens are in existence (in the market)?
-* **Max supply:** How many tokens will there be in total?
-* **Total suppply:** all tokens already issued minus the ones that were burned/locked.
-
-> If the circulating supply is low while the total and max are high: red flag as the value of your coins will get diluted away (more coins created will put pressure on the price).
-
-> The monetary policy in crypto dictates whether a coin is inflationary or deflationary and by how much, as well as the overall consensus mechanism for the project.

-
-### liquidity and valuation
-
-* **Fully diluted valuation:** How will the supply change over time?
-* **Market cap**: Current Price * circulating supply
-* **Fully Dilute:** Market cap: Price * max supply.
-

-
-### distribution
-
-* **Holders**: Who has the supply? WHEN can they sell?
-* **DAOs/project research**: What are their policies for changing?
-
-> A good distribution design is when no single person or group holds a large amount of the coin, instead, it’s distributed among many individuals.
-
-* how are the initial tokens distributed? There are roughly 2 ways:
-
-##### pre minted
-
-1. The team distributes tokens to itself.
-2. Distribution to insiders such as the team and venture capitalists
-
-In this case, VCs and Insiders could dump their tokens and cause a price crash.
-Vesting means when they're allowed to sell the tokens. You want to make sure that the early backers are INCENTIVIZED with the protocol long-term.
-
-##### fair launch
-
-* 100% fair. Everyone has equal access.

-### concerns
-
-
-* The tokens were inflationary without enough utility.
-* Concentration of tokens by VCs & whales led to retail getting dumped on.
-* Understanding the market cap would show that it's impossible.
-

-
-### what drives the demand
-
-
-* Utility (gas, fun, adoption)
-* Value Accrual (xStaking, governance)
-* The Memes and Narratives
