Agent-based simulations for protocol design, tokenomics, and risk analysis
Mingxuan He

This workshop is a technical tutorial aimed at upskilling developers and protocol stakeholders on how to build an agent-based simulation model for their protocol or Dapp, which can greatly improve their efficiency, security, and scalability. I will give a detailed walk-through on building a data-driven ABM using real world examples, and optionally a live coding demo. The session is designed to involve high output/engagement from the participants, where by the end everyone will have built a rudimentary agent-based model for a web3 protocol / Dapp of their choice.

Some basic knowledge about smart contracts, DeFi concepts, and object-oriented programming would be helpful. No prior knowledge about quantitative modeling or data science required.
