a16z: Project Treasury Management Guidelines for Surviving the Bear MarketTreasury (capital library, financial library) management is the way the project party manages resources to ensure that the company can continue to operate and have sufficient operating cash on hand. This may involve short-term expenses such as paying salaries and rent, or making long-term strategic investments such as acquisitions and research and development. In a bear market, the team should calculate monthly cash consumption, use cash to maintain operating expenses, formulate additional capital plans, strengthen operational capabilities, monitor and make necessary adjustments to achieve the core goals of capital preservation, liquidity, and income.》。

Bid to Earn: How can NFT players profit from Make Offer?

Most bidders on OpenSea are focused on high-volume blue-chip collectibles. Compared with OpenSea, LooksRare has a lot of fake buying and selling.

Using WETH on OpenSea allows you to bid on multiple NFTs at the same time, which not only saves time, but also saves costs to a certain extent; you can also bid on NFTs whose health index is lower than 1 on Bid on BendDAO, and their bidding prices are often lower than floor price. But it is worth noting that once you bid, your funds will be locked for 48 hours, and there will be a risk of a sudden drop in the floor price during this period. Make Offer is a very useful function. When buying your NFT, if the price of the NFT you want is too high, you can use this method to try to buy at a low price instead of buying directly based on the seller's price.

Compared with Ethereum, which is burdened with heavy historical data, the modular chain represents a more reasonable multi-chain structure trend. The modular chain is currently dominated by DA and the execution layer. The execution layer is easy to deploy, and DA emphasizes the optimization of performance. General-purpose modular chains deserve attention, but most projects are in the evangelization and pre-launch stages. At the same time, modularization also brings some new problems, for example, whether they introduce new security issues when they are connected to each other and L1, and may break the composability of the original Ethereum DAPP .

Former Ethereum CCO tells the truth about The DAO: What is the real DAO?

For example, Stephan Tual bid farewell to the DAO field (bringing his shadow) and went to Slock.it's open letter and clarification post, which is more personal.

DAOs can take many forms. Independently running digital companies free from interference and “backdoor transactions” on the blockchain is a way of thinking that can also be used for more complex endeavors such as implementing liquid democracy-style voting mandates. Not all crowdfunding is a DAO.

"I just got back from San Francisco where I witnessed whirlwind's budding crypto yuppies on their way to their posh offices (they step on homeless leeks) and they're still complaining about why they don't eat mincemeat .as of August 15, 2022, the blockchain has turned into a circus of centralized NFTs, endless Ponzi schemes, illegal securities, or traitors swearing allegiance to the nearest regulator. I don’t admit to being in that place, I don't envy them at all."

Review of Tribe DAO Proposal Shutdown: The Largest Shutdown in DeFi History

In a typical bankruptcy proceeding, creditors have a liquidation priority over equity holders and are enforced by the legal system. In the future, DAOs should not leave these issues to the whims of post-event governance, but should set clear event governance procedures in the agreement. A is as important as D and O.

Chengdu Lianan x Footprint jointly released the 2022 Web3 Security Research ReportIn the first half of 2022, about 79 major security incidents were monitored in the Web3 field, and the losses caused by various attacks reached 1.91287 billion US dollars. There were 7 cross-chain bridge attacks, with a total loss of 1.13599 billion US dollars; 53% of the attacks were contract exploits; about 26.6% of the attacks were flash loans; there were 5 security incidents with a loss of over 100 million in the first half of the year; the entire DeFi market TVL fell from US$276 billion in early January to US$80 billion at the end of June, a drop of 71%; hackers laundered a total of US$1,140.7 million through Tornado Cash; about 71% of the attacks occurred in the DeFi field.》

Newly entered security service vendors have followed suit, but security services have not been able to keep up. There are not enough service providers with real supply capacity and a certain brand influence, and there are only ten or twenty service providers in the world. On the specific segmented track, the players who entered the game did not fully cover different needs, and most of them were still "rolled" in the security audit with a clear income model and good cash flow. From the perspective of security audit alone, it is almost difficult for most service providers to achieve standardized automation, which means that the supply capacity is very limited by manpower. The more core problem is the mismatch in the supply and demand structure of security resources, resulting in low matching efficiency. In addition, charges and accountability are not clear enough. Therefore, standardization, automation, and business depth are the core competitiveness of security companies; ecologicalization and segmentation will be the general trend.
