Mechanism Capital’s Andrew Kang said DeSci protocols will likely change their existing models before evolving into more market-ready products.
Decentralized science (DeSci) protocols are where decentralized finance (DeFi) was in 2019 — nascent and largely untested in the markets but filled with “massive potential,” an industry executive says.
“Everything is still raw, experimental, but there’s an underlying understanding [...] that there is massive potential,” explained Andrew Kang, a founder and partner at crypto-focused venture capital firm Mechanism Capital, in a Nov. 24 post on X.
Kang said the DeSci projects are still evolving and will likely change their model and products similar to how DeFi protocols Maker, Synthetix, and Aave did around 2019 before becoming much larger.
