Market volatility remains high, speculative behavior is rampant, Ponzi schemes and rug pulls continue to emerge, and hacks and scams persist. This raises a perplexing question: The original vision of crypto was to use blockchain technology and decentralization to build a system that moves from \"don't be evil\" to \"can't be evil.\" But now, it seems to be mired in even greater evil than the traditional world. Isn\u2019t this, in itself, a kind of \"crypto paradox\"?\n\nTo help clarify these thoughts, I am writing a book titled *Protocol Revolution and DigiLaw Engineering.* The goal is to re-examine the essence of crypto from a first-principles perspective and to uncover the fundamental causes of the crypto paradox. Additionally, I aim to use modeling tools to identify key elements that have been overlooked in the design and maintenance of crypto protocol systems and to develop a relatively feasible and practical theoretical framework and guide.\n\nHowever, the writing process has not been without challenges. One of the main obstacles is the overwhelming complexity of concepts in crypto (or web3), which is highly unfriendly to non-crypto users and significantly hinders the dissemination and understanding of crypto knowledge.\n\nFor example, the term \"protocol\" is overly broad\u2014everything from TCP/IP protocols to contracts and even traffic rules can be called a \"protocol,\" but these have little to do with the \"tokenized decentralized protocols\" we are discussing here. The term \"token engineering\" is novel, distinctive, and clearly defined, and it has witnessed the significant contributions of Token Engineering Commons in advancing the development of the token ecosystem in recent years. However, its limitations are becoming apparent. Many issues within the crypto economic system or token ecosystem extend beyond just tokens (such as the adjustment of key parameters in AAVE\u2019s lending business). Even professional token engineers might mistakenly believe that all aspects of token engineering are directly related to tokens.\n\nI propose using the term \"DigiLaw\" to refer to \"tokenized decentralized protocols\" (commonly known as \"crypto protocols\"). \"DigiLaw,\" a combination of \"Digital\" and \"Law,\" is simple and intuitive\u2014its essence is clear even to non-Web3 users: it represents not just a protocol, but the immutable natural laws of the digital world. Moreover, it directly targets the root of evil in the current crypto world\u2014centralized projects that disguise themselves as decentralized while arbitrarily altering protocols. (It is essential to clarify that our intention is not to replace \"Token Engineering\" with \"DigiLaw Engineering.\" Rather, through our past research and practice, we have recognized that we mistakenly confined Token Engineering to the design and management of tokens, overlooking the broader and more complex systemic challenges behind it. To address this shortcoming, we introduced the concept of \"DigiLaw Engineering,\" aiming to expand upon the existing Token Engineering framework and fill the gaps that have not been sufficiently explored in our research.\uff09\n\nThis is the power of the term \"DigiLaw\": it serves as a constant reminder to stay vigilant, to identify imposters, and to steadfastly protect the principle of immutability. From this perspective, I see \"DigiLaw\" not just as a new term, but as a precise definition and rigorous standard for crypto protocols. Accordingly, I prefer to view \"DigiLaw Engineering\" as the 2.0 version of \"token engineering.\" This term not only carries forward the spirit of 'token engineering' but also expands its scope to encompass the design and maintenance of the operational laws of the entire decentralized ecosystem, avoiding the misconceptions that come with a narrow focus on tokens alone.\n\nWith this core concept in place, I have further structured the book into three main sections:\n\n- **Part One: Protocol Revolution**\n\n  This section analyzes the essence of crypto and explores how \"tokenized decentralized protocols\" (DigiLaw) can become a new primitive of digital society. It also establishes a trust economy evaluation framework for crypto and delves into the value creation dynamics of DigiLaw, clarifying the interactions between business, growth, governance, and incentives.\n\n- **Part Two: From Tokenomics to Token Design**\n\n  This section reconstructs the understanding of the relationships between \"tokenomics,\" \"tokens,\" \"DigiLaw,\" and \"DigiLaw systems.\" It offers a design framework that goes beyond tokenomics and, through experiments, reveals guidelines for optimizing economic structures and methods for dynamic system maintenance.\n\n- **Part Three: DigiLaw Engineering**\n\n  Here, I introduce the concept of \"holo computing\"(based on the concept of holographic principle) and detail a lifecycle modeling and simulation approach for cryptoeconomic systems based on \"ABSE.\" This section showcases the application of AI-Agent simulation in system design and illustrates how the \"Model is trust\" philosophy and decentralized ABSE methods can make the crypto world more secure, ethical, and sustainable.\n\nThe reason for writing this book is that the \"evil\" described in the crypto paradox doesn't just stem from human nature; many of these issues are driven by objective factors. Among these, the greatest challenge lies in the design and maintenance of the DigiLaw/crypto protocol ecosystem, which is a brand-new, world-class problem. We can think of DigiLaw/crypto protocol as a set of rules, with participants interacting and competing based on these rules, thereby constructing an open and dynamically self-evolving complex system. The quality of DigiLaw/crypto protocol's design directly determines the robustness and sustainability of the crypto economic system. Even the smallest change in DigiLaw/crypto protocols can trigger a butterfly effect within the system, making it difficult for traditional tokenomics methods to accurately predict the system's development trajectory.\n\nHowever, the industry's awareness of this world-class challenge is still far from sufficient. We urgently need more DigiLaw engineers to break through the bottlenecks. Although Token Engineering Commons (TEC), as a pioneer in this field, has made significant contributions in advancing token engineering theory, cultivating professional talent, and establishing TE standards, the reality is that the entire crypto industry's resources remain heavily skewed toward the technical side. To this day, crypto is still dominated by coding-focused builders. Yet, technology alone is not enough to address the deep-rooted challenges facing the crypto world. True transformation requires the creation of a secure, ethical, and sustainable crypto protocol ecosystem, and DigiLaw engineers are the key force driving this change.\n\nTherefore, I believe it is essential to harness the power of decentralization, bringing together industry wisdom to create a consensus-driven, cutting-edge guide on TE theory and practice. This guide will lay a solid educational foundation for the future generation of DigiLaw engineers. This initiative is not only a necessary response to current challenges but also a crucial step toward carving out a sustainable path for crypto, enabling a fundamental shift from \"don't be evil\" to \"can't be evil.\" (For more detailed background, please refer to [The Preface of *Protocol Revolution and DigiLaw Engineering*](https://medium.com/@digilaw.engineering/why-havent-we-settled-on-the-crypto-planet-at-scale-yet-8180cacf4ac6) ).\n\n## Overview\n\nThis project aims to write the first chapter of the book *Protocol Revolution and DigiLaw Engineering*, titled \"The Light of Protocols, The Shadow of Utopia.\"\n\nThe chapter will comprehensively explore the core elements of the digital world, with a particular focus on DigiLaw/crypto protocols, blockchains, smart contracts, and tokens. Not only will it delve into how these concepts are reshaping technology, social structures, economic systems, and governance models, but more importantly, it will also uncover the contradictions and risks hidden behind these innovative ideas, presenting a complex portrait of the intense clash between ideals and reality.\n\n## Details\n\nSpecifically, the chapter will cover the following key topics:\n\n### Chapter 1.1 From Protocol to DigiLaw: Unraveling the Essence of the Crypto World\n\nThis section begins with an exploration of protocols as the foundation of social and technological infrastructure, ultimately leading to the introduction of DigiLaw/crypto protocols, the digital natural laws of the crypto world. DigiLaw not only inherits the governance and collaboration functions of traditional protocols but also injects new vitality and resilience into the digital ecosystem through decentralization and tokenization. DigiLaw maintains order and trust in the digital world, transcending conventional legal and governance structures to offer a new perspective on governance in the digital age. In comparison with traditional organizations, corporations, and states, DigiLaw reveals its unique advantages in governance, value distribution, and strategy, highlighting its critical role in driving social change. Through decentralized innovation, DigiLaw is poised to lead us toward a fairer, more open, and diverse future, serving as the key to unlocking the essence of crypto.\n\n### Chapter 1.2 The Power of Blockchain: From Decentralization to a New Paradigm of Autonomy\n\nThis section delves into blockchain technology, beginning with the core principle of decentralization, which drives the immutability of protocols and reshapes trust mechanisms on a global scale. Blockchain not only achieves hard decentralization but also enhances the immutability and transparency of protocols through its distributed structure, consensus mechanisms, and smart contracts. By eliminating the need for reliance on centralized institutions, blockchain provides a \"trustless\" system that secures various economic activities. As we look ahead to the future of blockchain, we see how it can further enhance autonomy, bringing more innovation and possibilities to society, the economy, and culture, ultimately becoming a powerful force for social change.\n\n### Chapter 1.3 Smart Contracts: Shaping the Future of Trust and Automation\n\nThis section explores how smart contracts have become the vanguard of decentralized protocol innovation. Leveraging blockchain technology, smart contracts reconstruct trust, streamline transaction processes, and bring disruptive innovation across various industries. From Nick Szabo's original concept to the evolution of Ethereum, smart contracts have demonstrated their core strengths in reducing costs, enhancing transparency, and improving efficiency. However, they also face challenges in security and scalability. Looking toward the future, we recognize the immense potential of smart contracts in the realms of fragmentation, standardization, and technological integration.\n\n### Chapter 1.4 Tokens Empower DigiLaw, Collapsing the Future\n\nThis section explores how tokens empower DigiLaw to become the driving force behind the transformation of future socio-economic models. Tokens not only inject economic incentives into decentralized protocols but also enable the storage and free flow of value through tokenization. As the \"fuel\" of the digital ecosystem, tokens bring together various stakeholders, driving the commercialization and socialization of protocols. Tokens play a pivotal role in shaping user behavior, innovating business models, and enhancing network collaboration within protocols. However, tokenization also introduces challenges such as market manipulation, security vulnerabilities, and regulatory hurdles. If left unaddressed, these issues could threaten the healthy development of the entire ecosystem. By examining the interaction between tokens and DigiLaw, this section reveals how they hold the potential to collapse future possibilities, reshape societal equity and growth, and ultimately build a more decentralized and open future.\n\n### Chapter 1.5 Web3: The Next-Generation Internet Economy Driven by DigiLaw\n\nThis section explores how Web3 is driving the transformation of the internet through decentralized tokenized protocols, leading the world into a new era of digital economy. Web3 not only inherits the revolutionary concepts of early crypto protocols like Bitcoin but also extends these ideas to a broader range of applications, facilitating the shift from a platform economy to a protocol economy. By leveraging the decentralized nature of blockchain technology, Web3 offers users greater autonomy and data sovereignty, disrupting traditional internet business models. Within the Web3 ecosystem, diverse innovations such as tokens, smart contracts, decentralized applications (DApps), and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) are building a more open, secure, and equitable networked world. Web3 is not only reshaping our understanding of the internet but also bringing unprecedented opportunities for global economic innovation, becoming a crucial engine for driving future societal change.\n\n### Chapter 1.6 The Shadow of Crypto Utopia: The Intense Clash Between Ideals and Reality\n\nThis section unveils the intense clash between the ideals and reality of the crypto world. Although the original vision of crypto is to build a decentralized world grounded in freedom, openness, and fairness, the complexities and contradictions of reality make this ideal difficult to achieve. The limitations of technology, flaws in mechanism design, and inadequacies in legal regulation are some of the key obstacles to realizing the decentralized ideal. Additionally, subjective factors such as speculation, hype, fraud, and attacks exacerbate the challenges in this field. By deeply analyzing the roots of these issues, this section reveals that the real challenges in the crypto world are not merely technological but also involve human nature, governance, and institutional complexities. Despite the significant gap between ideals and reality, crypto protocols and decentralized ideals continue to lead the way forward. Through technological iteration, mechanism optimization, effective governance, and community self-regulation, the crypto world holds the potential to gradually achieve true decentralization and equitable distribution. However, this process requires overcoming numerous challenges and calls for collective efforts from the industry, community, and regulatory bodies. Only through sustained innovation and collaboration can we bridge the gap between ideals and reality and build a more open, fair, and prosperous digital future.\n\n## Potential Innovations\n\nIn the content of the first chapter, we have gathered most of the cutting-edge insights, deriving numerous forward-looking and innovative perspectives through deep reflection from first principles, including but not limited to:\n\n- Pioneering Division at the Protocol Level: By dividing protocols into four quadrants based on \"centralization vs. decentralization\" and \"digital vs. human,\" this approach introduces the concept that crypto protocols represent a new species in human history\u2014hard decentralized protocols.\n- Original Concepts of \"Digital Nature\" and \"DigiLaw\": Introducing for the first time the groundbreaking concepts of \"Digital Nature\" and \"DigiLaw,\" which offer a new paradigm for the future of tokenized decentralized protocols, defining the laws and order of the digital world.\n- Reinterpreting the Crypto World from First Principles: By returning to first principles, we reinterpret the intrinsic value of tokenized decentralized protocols, unveiling the internal logic and fundamental driving forces of the crypto world.\n- The Human-Technology Struggle: The crypto world is not only at the forefront of technology but also a profound test of human nature's weaknesses. The core challenge for future development lies in how to effectively constrain human weaknesses within the framework of technological advancements.\n- Trust Reconstruction through Decentralization and Tokenization: A deep exploration of the crucial role decentralization and tokenization play in building a trustless digital natural environment, outlining a new blueprint for the future social trust framework.\n- Deep Integration of Technology and Social Change: Through the lens of technology, we analyze its transformative power on social trust structures, governance methods, and economic models, revealing the deep interaction between technological and societal development.\n- Confronting Reality: Analyzing the Gap Between Ideals and Reality: Boldly facing the existing dark side of the crypto world, we critically analyze the gap between ideals and reality, uncovering the objective and subjective reasons behind it, and driving the alignment of ideals with reality.\n- The Inevitability of Iteration and Evolution: The path to the future is paved with technological iteration, mechanism refinement, and regulatory collaboration. The future of the crypto world will gradually emerge through this progressive evolution.\n\n## Project goals\n\n### Short-Term Objectives (3-6 Months)\n\nCompletion of the First Chapter: Focus efforts on writing the first chapter of Protocol Revolution and DigiLaw Engineering, titled \"The Light of Protocols, The Shadow of Utopia.\" The goal is to ensure the content's depth and forward-looking perspective, aiming to produce 50,000 to 100,000 words of high-quality material.\n\nPromotion and Engagement: Regularly publish chapter content on platforms like Medium and Twitter, engage with the community, gather feedback, and make necessary content optimizations.
