Description

The Economy Flowchart (Printable) is a high-level visual reference designed to illustrate the structure and flow of digital economies within the metaverse, Web3 platforms, and tokenized environments. This offline-ready poster-style flowchart is ideal for entrepreneurs, developers, educators, and investors seeking to understand the movement of value, utility, and tokens across decentralized systems. It maps out the full economic lifecycle from token creation (minting, allocation, vesting) to distribution (airdrops, staking, trading), and then to utilization (governance, spending in virtual worlds, asset conversion). The flowchart also includes secondary market dynamics such as NFT resales, yield farming, and cross-chain token swaps, making it an excellent strategic tool. Key components like liquidity pools, DAO treasuries, and decentralized exchanges are clearly labeled and color-coded for easy reference. Designed with both beginners and experienced professionals in mind, the visual breaks down complex financial interactions into digestible segments. Special annotations highlight regulatory considerations in regions such as Japan, particularly for flows involving stablecoins or fiat conversions. An additional sidebar offers tips on how to interpret value generation models—whether from user activity, asset scarcity, or external market integration. Use this chart in pitch decks, lectures, or as an office wall print to explain the circular nature of virtual economies. With both A3 and A4 versions provided, the Economy Flowchart is an essential offline asset for those architecting or analyzing token-based ecosystems.
