Event description

Description

The first Token Engineering Switzerland event in February introduced Token Engineering as an emerging professional discipline around designing cryptoeconomic systems. This second event will explore one of the most well-known and widely-used cryptoeconomic building-blocks (“primitives”), Token Bonding Curves.

Since the conceptual idea behind what would later become known as a “Token Bonding Curve” (or just “Bonding Curve”) was introduced in parallel by Simon de la Rouviere and the Bancor team in 2016, it has developed in exciting ways. While early Bonding Curve research focused mainly on group coordination mechanisms called "Token Curation Markets", the primitive has since been experimented with in the context of a large number of use cases, among them crowdfunding, automated market making / liquidity provision, and exchange protocols. Implementations have evolved from featuring static functions to highly dynamic mechanisms with large composability potential. The latest scientific research has generalized Bonding Curves to the well-known engineering notion of “configuration spaces”, enabling the effective integration into sophisticated Web 3 applications, and the use of mathematical tookits habitually applied to solve engineering problems in robotics, aerospace, and other critical infrastructure domains.

This event will demystify Token Bonding Curves and provide both an easy introduction for everyone new to the topic, and deep-dives into actual applications (including some illustrative code), demonstrating why any Web 3 professional should be acquainted with the concept.

Register if you are considering using bonding curves, can contribute experience with Bonding Curves, or if you are just curious! We will send the dial-in link to all registered participants on the day of the event.

Token Engineering Switzerland is the Swiss chapter of the global Token Engineering movement. Our mission is to cultivate an awareness of the emerging professional discipline of Token Engineering in Switzerland and to connect academics, practitioners, and investors during local events.
