On this episode of the Unleashing DePIN Podcast, our host Tyler Boscolo is joined by Jon Schwartz, the CEO and founder of GLIF, aka, the DePIN Economist. This episode is divided into two parts: the first explores the intersection of DeFi and DePIN with GLIF, while the second focuses on DePIN economics. We delve into the intricacies of levered DePIN mining, the intersection of DeFi and DePIN, and the evolving market dynamics for Filecoin. Jon shares his journey within the crypto space and insights into the future of GLIF, including their recent token launch and multi-chain expansion. We then discuss important economic considerations for DePIN projects, the importance of KPI based emissions, stablecoin implementations, and the evaluation models for sustainable DePIN network value capture.00:42 Welcome to the Unleashing DePIN Podcast00:58 Meet Jon: The DePIN Economist and GLIF CEO01:48 Jon's Journey in Crypto and Web302:03 The Birth and Evolution of GLIF04:53 The Future of GLIF and Multi-Chain Expansion07:15 Understanding Filecoin's Current State10:42 Challenges and Innovations in Filecoin Staking13:51 Levered DePIN Mining Beyond Filecoin15:14 Exploring DeFi Applications in DePIN Ecosystems15:34 Innovative Collateral and Stablecoin Experiments19:22 DePIN Economics and Token Models31:10 Supply Side Incentives and KPI-Based Emissions34:12 Energy Networks and KPI Challenges36:54 Valuation Models for DePIN Networks39:00 Token Economics and Market Dynamics45:21 DePIN Network Metrics and Indicators55:29 Innovative Approaches and Future Directions59:44 Concluding Thoughts and Future Research  Catch up with the Unleashing DePIN Podcast!Follow us on Twitter:https://x.com/DePINUnleashedSpotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/6y8Z78pqnyjiUoAZWbf9lcApple:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unleashing-depin/id1643813996Website:https://unleashingdepin.comFollow our team:Tyler Boscolo:https://twitter.com/tylerboscoloNick:https://twitter.com/0xMetaLightJoin our Substack: https://parameterresearch.substack.com/
