Proof of Coverage Media

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The unification of rights. The industry is moving away from "vague utility" toward hard-coded economic claims that institutional capital can actually model.
  2. Audit your portfolio for "Seniority." Prioritize projects that establish legal or smart-contract-based links to the underlying business entity rather than just "community" vibes.
  3. Real economic rights are the only way to attract the next wave of capital. If a token doesn't represent a claim on value, it is just a meme with extra steps.
