Do you think blockchain technology can be used to improve building retrofit energy efficiency programs? According to BlockScience, it can 🤓 Let's unpack this 👇 🌍 Exciting new developments for a greener future! The #WindfallProtocol is a blockchain-based digital infrastructure designed to accelerate energy-efficient retrofits in buildings. 🏡🏢 🛠️ With buildings contributing ~20% of Canada's emissions, its transition to #NetZero by 2050 requires a major retrofit push. But at current rates, it’ll take over a century! 😱 The Windfall Protocol is here to change that. 🧑🤝🧑 By connecting regulators, homeowners, and builders, it simplifies data sharing, streamlines incentives, and speeds up adoption. Think easier retrofits for homes & businesses! 🔗💡 🌍 With a pilot launching in Durham, Ontario, this open-source protocol can potentially reshape energy markets, finance pathways, and more! 💰🌱 🚀 Multi-stakeholder governance ensures social, economic, and environmental impacts are balanced in the protocol’s development. It facilitates the journey toward a #NetPositive future! 🌿💚 We are eager to discover more public good projects integrating blockchain 🤓 If you are working on something similar, let us know 👇

The Global Protocol Report is here. The pace of innovation in the blockchain space is unstoppable, with new protocols continually introduced to address evolving challenges. Much like the era of the World Wide Web, the Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) landscape is witnessing an influx of pioneering protocols. The Global Protocol Report by Crypto Oasis and Inacta Ventures in collaboration with the DLT Science Foundation serves as an indispensable compass for decision-makers, academics, and policymakers navigating the intricate layers of blockchain evolution.  Key observations from the Global Protocol Report: ➡ Switzerland is dominating the top 50 protocols with 68.6% of the total market capitalisation, followed by Singapore with 13.9%. ➡ In terms of the number of protocol organisations, US is leading with 15 and Switzerland with 10 on the second rank. ➡ In 2023 the top 50 protocols are primarily composed of Smart Contract & dApps Platforms (30), followed by Payment Protocols (5) and Entertainment Platforms (4). ➡ The Top 50 Protocols consist of 42 Layer 1s and 8 Layer 2s. ➡ With the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), the EU has created a blueprint for the harmonization of crypto regulations. This is an important step for the maturity of crypto on a global level. ➡ The blockchain trilemma stays. The typical scaling solution always go to the expense of one of the other corners. However, we see certain developments which have to be underpinned with more data. ➡ Eight of the top 50 protocols have already implemented sharding. It clearly has gained attention as a key scalability solution for blockchain networks. It involves breaking the blockchain into smaller, more manageable parts called shards, allowing for parallel processing of transactions. The 4th generation of blockchain protocols (page 30) offer increased sharding functionalities to solve the scaling problem. ➡ Other DLT forms than ‘classical’ blockchain protocols like Bitcoin or Ethereum are getting more popular. ➡ More than half of the top 50 protocols today rely on some kind of PoS. This also leads to more throughput and dramatically less power consumption. 🔗 This report also houses thought leadership articles and fact sheets on 70+ Global Protocols. Powerledger (POWR) is featured in the Protocol Fact Sheet section, p.155. Don't miss out on incredible industry insights.

🚨Our co-founder German Ramirez was very pleased to be asked to contribute to this year’s Global Protocol Report by Crypto Oasis and Inacta Ventures in collaboration with the DLT Science Foundation, where he takes a deep dive into the communications, messaging, and branding of layer-1 protocols and foundations using our proprietary quantitative methodology. 🚨 🤔 German finds that numerous layer-1 protocols have struggled to stake out a distinct brand positioning in the blockchain market, suggesting that there is an opportunity for those who can forge a more coherent, focussed brand. ✅ With so many different blockchain protocols in existence and a few behemoths like Ethereum dominating mainstream coverage, it can be difficult to keep track. The Global Protocol Report puts things in perspective. It takes a detailed look at the space, charting its fundamentals, evolution, valuation, maturity and regulatory standing. It also includes factsheets on over 70 of the world’s most prominent blockchains. 🚀 👋 Read the full report here: ➡️ https://lnkd.in/g3BPnwev #branding #web3 #layer1

Do You Need a DAO? Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) have seen exponential growth and interest due to their potential to redefine organizational structure and governance. Despite this, there is a discrepancy between the ideals of autonomy and decentralization and the actual experiences of DAO stakeholders. The Information Systems literature has yet to fully explore whether DAOs are the optimal organizational choice. Addressing this gap, our research asks, "Is a DAO suitable for your organizational needs?" We derive a gated decision-making framework through a thematic review of the academic and grey literature on DAOs. Through five scenarios, the framework emphasizes the gaps between DAOs' theoretical capabilities and practical challenges. Accepted for ECIS2024. Read the whole thing on https://lnkd.in/gEeKKAgw
