Excited to launch the new Tokenomics.net website!

Plus, I also have a special announcement... 👇

Shortly, we'll have a new FREE course focused specifically on RWAs.

The course will feature a commodity platform called "Stockpile".

This example project will be built out in full in the course, covering the exact process we apply with our clients as we build out their "Tokenomics Data Room"

It'll cover everything from end-to-end and include a utility token called $PILE and users will build their "Tokenomics Data Room".

Tokenomics Data Room includes:
– Fully written whitepaper
– Technical docs, formulas and pseudocode
– Supply side spreadsheet
– Complete audit (45+ page report)
– Process Maps (how your whole system breaks down)
– Three phase roadmap
– Fully built revenue model (3-5 years with toggles for base, conservative, aggressive)
– Monte Carlo Simulation (includes a 20+ page report with data and statistics alongside Github code)

The course is framed from the point of where most founders start with us.

They have an idea, but don't know how to fully build it out or what they need. 

We will go through the entire process end-to-end, covering even granular details like market research.

We are treating Stockpile as a real project within the company and capturing the transformation along the journey while we work.

All of this will be condensed down into a video course series unlike anything available now. 

👉 Make sure you're following Tony Drummond to get notified on release!

Crypto was crashing so I ditched work and watched my nephew play with his band as they tour the US. 

What happens next in web3?

I think we'll continue to see the pump and dump utility tokens attached to no real product failing. 

Only the insiders are making money from these tokens.

Instead, companies will realize the value of web3 tech and how it can positively impact their businesses. 

Some of the highest revenue/employee companies have been in web3 and we're using it to pump and dump 💩coins?

Key point: Tokens do not have to be attached to a DEX or CEX with a chart to have value. 

Tokens can represent literally anything, so long as there is a compliant ownership structure attached.

The days of launching tokens and having them pump with no fundamentals are long gone. 

Now?

We need to stop the greed, insider pilfering and short-term thinking.

With regulation and proper use of the tech, we have an opportunity to show how this tech adds value to customers.

Currently, many seem to be focused on extracting value from customers rather than adding it. 

There are few businesses that have survived on a mindset of extracting value from customers.

A casino comes to mind as one of them 😂

What is your current sentiment on tokens?

There was almost no video today...

I flipped on my ring light and a massive spider illuminated 🕷️

Many have asked me:

What's the future hold for utility tokens?

I think we'll see a lot more lower FDV with higher float.

Reason why?

Hardly any of the high FDV low float have performed.

Insiders want a high FDV as their tokens are worth more, hence it's easier to dump and extract from retail. 

I thought about this recently:

What makes a successful web3 VC?

They don't have to pick the right team, a business with revenues, product-market fit, etc. 

All you need is your name, money (from LPs), fancy branding, partnerships, etc. 

In web2?

You had to actually be right about something.

Web3 just follows the same extraction playbook, until it stops working.

Once it stopped working?

The money dried up - who figured?

Until we learn that the path to business is value creation for customers, not extraction, our space will never thrive.

Because when everyone is greedy and thinking only short-term, it'll be a miracle if a project survives.

Thoughts?

♻️ Repost to support and share with others

I realized something recently that blew my mind.

Think about it...

Some of the highest revenue/employee companies recently have been blockchain-based.

Literally, business models that were previously impossible.

Yet in web3?

Many are using the tech for short-term pump and dumps vs actual customer value creation.

Whether we enter an extended bear market or not, I'm going to continue moving Tokenomics.net forward.

Our passion and motivation will be helping businesses get onchain without them having to navigate scammers and trash. 

I will continue to oppose high FDV low float profit centers for insiders.

$200M-$300M 💩coins that can't even hold their launch price for a week.

No company will move itself forward by dumping on its customers.

Also, if the only way investors can get a return is by dumping tokens on users, it furthers the issue.

For our space to thrive, it has to be set up to do so.

🙋‍♂️ What are your thoughts on the future of utility tokens?
👉 Follow Tony Drummond for daily web3 insights.

Prioritize "Ease of Work" as a leader.

This simple test works extremely well.

I've managed hundreds of people in my career. 

Some people I hired drained my time. 

Others? They freed me to do my best work.

I want my whole team to be filled with people who have agency, are intelligent and use the FAFO model to continuously learn.

Nobody should be afraid to fail or try something new.

I'll note a simple way to focus on hiring from EOS.

1. Desire to do the job
2. Ability to do the job
3. Capacity to do the job

If someone can't hit all three, don't hire them. 

Then, test to make sure they're not overestimating abilities.

Special thanks to my friend Maurício Magaldi for having me on his podcast!

Web3 Marketing Leader | Scaling brands through strategy, content, and execution

Since 2019, I’ve been deep in the Web3 arena - part researcher, part strategist, part content-first marketer. My goal is simple: turn complex decentralized technology into clear, compelling stories that move people and businesses forward.

I’ve collaborated with multicultural teams across four continents, analyzing the latest blockchain trends, mapping their impact across industries, and guiding organizations through the fast-changing Web3 landscape. Along the way I’ve championed a “ship > talk” culture—quick execution, open feedback, and plenty of room for creativity (and the occasional meme).

✨ Key Wins

- Built From Zero to 250K: Foundation, Visibility & Growth

Established the entire marketing foundation for early-stage Web3 startups, taking them from zero presence to nearly 250,000 followers across platforms.

Developed and executed content strategies that drove massive organic reach, brand awareness, and long-term community engagement.

- Campaigns that convert

Built fundraising and go-to-market campaigns for Web3 brands by distilling complex tech into persuasive, story-driven narratives.

- Brand amplification

Elevated blockchain service & infrastructure providers with engaging content, sharp positioning, and hands-on management of content + community teams.

- Community, not just hype
Launched mission-focused communities aimed at long-term utility, not fleeting buzz.

- Culture matters

Discovered first-hand that nothing grabs Web3 attention like smart memes and humor, now a core tool in my brand-building kit.

What I Bring

- Story-led leadership – I rally teams to craft narratives that spotlight the real-world value of blockchain and fintech innovations.

- Executive brand coaching – From whitepapers to Twitter threads, I help companies, founders and CEOs claim their thought-leadership space.

- Ecosystem fluency – With six years of on-chain experience, I translate technical depth into business impact.

Let’s Connect 🤝
