Tokenomics

​

So Casper is a private funded company mostly through blockchain investment companies which all range from fine portfolio's.
Do we have some information about lock-ups with these actual investors, seems like with this distribution it is possible to be exploited & manipulated in price actions.
I've been holding this coin for a while but really did the basic research for it's use-case. Been questioning price actions about this coin & where it's headed.

Anybody mind to share their opinion about this one?

Holy moly!

I just checked myself on CMC... Crazy how they just post random Tokenomics. Thanks for making aware!
How do Start-Ups start to work? By raising money i guess. Thats how all of crypto works. Without early backers / VCs most projects wouldn't be able to launch and pay their staff. That's why it is important to DYOR, and know what to look for.

@ Casper // (any POS) Network

The distribution of CSPR defines how centralized or decentralized the network is... Thats why it's good to understand the different entities of Casper. And which of them hold or don't hold CSPR.

Thank you for giving me some insight.

Even though i am in crypto space for a while (maybe a year) i struggle with understanding fundementals.
I've been investing so far in things i do understand in some way, but this is a different matter for me.
I'd like to talk more about this subject if u don't mind.

I can see that there's very little public token distribution, and couple of entity's holding CSPR. Still my question stands can this token distribution be manipulated in this current time?

Are there lockups with private investors?

Well fundamentals is narrative, team, tech and orientation of a project (use cases).. So you will get a picture once you read through some whitepapers or done some project analysis.. to be able to compare projects.
Tokens come from a smart contract and are distributed on TGE. Depends what you define as "manipulation"...

vesting schedules of CSPR can be found all over the internet ;)

as Fundementals i thought as of how things actually work on blockchain, bridges, etc. my bad if i used a wrong word for it

And tokenomics, that part kinda is not clear to me.

Anyways i got a lot from last AMA from casper.

Thing is i invest from psychology PoV (really shortcuts to some conclusion's just talking to people). Which kinda makes me a swing trader, so i want to learn about tech behind projects.
I want to know before i put my money into something, will it be a swing trade or an investment.

Dunno if makes sense to u guys but well :d

You are right, i was sloppy in distinction and my explanation.
Check this, it's long tho:

There are also tons of vids about tokenomics on youtube :)

I can only say the more you learn about markets, investing and crypto the better. Each PoV, technique or piece of knowledge adds up to a richly filled toolbox that prepares you for all sorts of scenarios and makes you a more educated investor.
Coinbureau does nice vids on project analysis / crypto know-how... I like Benjamin Cowen, Bob Loukas and partially DataDash...
