Shaw, the founder of ai16z, stated that the HackMD team proposed a discussion proposal on upgrading the ai16z token economic model. The key points of this proposal include:
1. Launching an official ai16z Launchpad platform for Eliza-based proxy projects in Q1 2025, achieved through acquiring existing market technology teams. It is suggested that the platform charge a certain percentage of startup fees to repurchase ai16z and establish an ai16z token liquidity pool;
2. Implementing community management processes, which may involve staking and slashing;
3. Positioning ai16z as an AI L1 blockchain.
4. Incentivizing developers to build on Eliza through ecosystem funds, revenue sharing, and support for third-party launchpads;
5. Diversifying DAO funds while avoiding selling proxy tokens by selectively providing liquidity and supporting staking.
