Pilot — Tokenomics Framework | | During pilot, use Tokenomics Framework to make comparable decisions with a consistent structure. Start with a current asset inventory, data flows, threat model, control evidence, incidents, contracts, and applicable obligations. Name the accountable owner, the evidence reviewer, the decision deadline, and the output that proves this stage is complete. Record exclusions and unresolved questions rather than allowing them to disappear into narrative. The stage closes only when its evidence can be reproduced by someone who did not prepare it. | | | Required output: a completed framework, rationale, and exception register. | | | 2. Scale — Tokenomics Framework | | During scale, use Tokenomics Framework to make comparable decisions with a consistent structure. Start with a current asset inventory, data flows, threat model, control evidence, incidents, contracts, and applicable obligations.
