Hello - trying to get a little more involved in the forums - love the idea of a Data Index Questions regarding RenFIL: - The methodology for DPI states “The token must be a bearer instrument. None of the following will be included in the index: Wrapped tokens. Tokenized derivatives. Synthetic assets. Tokens that are tied to physical assets. Tokens that represent claims on other tokens.” - Would we not maintain a similar inclusion criteria for other indices (save BED)? Are we exposing this index to additional risks related to the RenVM? - Would love to have exposure to FIL in this index, but it just seems complicated without it being an ERC-20 token. A question regarding Numeraire - This feels more like a protocol that could be included in the DPI sometime in the future. When looking at how Messari Crypto ([Messari.io](http://Messari.io)) classifies Numeraire, its under “Asset Management” and “Finance”. However, Coin Gecko classifies Numeraire as “Business Services” and “Decentralized Finance (DeFi)”. So I guess the “Business Services” classification allow for inclusion in a Web 3/Data Economy Index. - Just wondering, what is the justification for the Numeraire inclusion Token Expansion and Market Cap…Cap: - It would be interesting to consider expanding this to a more general Web 3 type of index and a SQRT MC calculation (similar to MVI), but with a 20% cap. - If we did do this, to address one of @overanalyser’s comments about the XXI format, it could be something along the lines of W3I or WTI. - Example with 10 tokens (using Messari’s Web 3 categorization) | Name | Ticker | Market Cap | % SQRT MC 20% Max | Units Per Token | $ Per Allocation | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Chainlink | LINK | $9,302,233,132 | 20.00% | 0.9331 | $20.00 | | Basic Attention Token | BAT | $923,847,329 | 14.62% | 23.7000 | $14.62 | | The Graph | GRT | $768,843,562 | 13.34% | 21.6085 | $13.34 | | Livepeer | LPT | $513,293,355 | 10.90% | 0.4493 | $10.90 | | Golem | GLM | $263,795,159 | 7.81% | 29.6148 | $7.81 | | Ocean Protocol | OCEAN | $249,609,973 | 7.60% | 15.3684 | $7.60 | | Band Protocol | BAND | $222,537,542 | 7.18% | 1.1347 | $7.18 | | Orchid | OXT | $201,055,429 | 6.82% | 23.1349 | $6.82 | | Civic | CVC | $153,668,928 | 5.96% | 25.9970 | $5.96 | | Streamr | DATA | $144,202,248 | 5.78% | 35.4186 | $5.78 | - Example with 15 tokens (using Messari’s Web 3 categorization) | Name | Ticker | Market Cap | % SQRT MC 20% Max | Units Per Token | $ Per Allocation | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Chainlink | LINK | $9,302,233,132 | 20.00% | 0.9331 | $20.00 | | Basic Attention Token | BAT | $923,847,329 | 12.48% | 20.2256 | $12.48 | | The Graph | GRT | $768,843,562 | 11.38% | 18.4407 | $11.38 | | Livepeer | LPT | $513,293,355 | 9.30% | 0.3835 | $9.30 | | Golem | GLM | $263,795,159 | 6.67% | 25.2733 | $6.67 | | Ocean Protocol | OCEAN | $249,609,973 | 6.49% | 13.1154 | $6.49 | | Band Protocol | BAND | $222,537,542 | 6.12% | 0.9684 | $6.12 | | Orchid | OXT | $201,055,429 | 5.82% | 19.7434 | $5.82 | | Civic | CVC | $153,668,928 | 5.09% | 22.1859 | $5.09 | | Streamr | DATA | $144,202,248 | 4.93% | 30.2263 | $4.93 | | District0x | DNT | $77,687,139 | 3.62% | 27.9429 | $3.62 | | Tellor | TRB | $75,070,413 | 3.56% | 0.0811 | $3.56 | | Radicle | RAD | $24,358,756 | 2.03% | 0.4078 | $2.03 | | FOAM | FOAM | $11,541,553 | 1.39% | 38.2493 | $1.39 | | Aragon Court | ANJ | $7,634,683 | 1.13% | 18.2201 | $1.13 | Regardless, love the idea.
