Tokens of all kinds are poised to improve the existing economic infrastructure worldwide, empower businesses and individuals to innovate and participate, and provide novel exchange opportunities across the globe and within local communities.
Openness
The open nature of crypto value networks is the decisive factor that produces innovation today and will continue to create tremendous value if preserved and promoted. Open-source and transparent networks, secured by open consensus protocols to which any interested party can contribute, are the most suitable architecture.
Ethics
Enterprises and individuals building and operating those networks, assets and use cases must act responsibly and ethically to ensure a positive and sustainable long-term impact for the society.
Innovation
Open networks allow for innovation in radically pioneering fields, such as programmable coordination mechanisms, decentralized applications or storage, and privacy-preserving digital identities. Innovation in those fields must be encouraged by the authorities and not hindered by rushed regulation.
Balanced regulation
Enterprises and individuals building and operating those networks, assets and use cases must act responsibly and ethically to ensure a positive and sustainable long-term impact for the society.
