📊Macroeconomist calls business models of most altcoins unsustainable
📢Macroeconomist Lyn Alden said that most altcoins are based on unsustainable business models. She explained that many projects intentionally sell assets at lower prices to make more profits. According to Alden, in such models, after an initial explosive phase of revenue growth, altcoin developers may raise prices. However, this will only work if the asset is in demand for its own sake, not because it is underpriced.
