1. There are over 16,000 Cryptocurrencies now in circulation and over 10,000 of them are worthless.

2. The ecosystem refers to the interconnectivity of smaller organisms within a structured, large environment big enough to contain or aid the co-existence of these organisms.

3. Blockchain technology is like an environment/town(DeFi town, NFT town, DAO town, Game town) where different streets or high-rise buildings can exist and interact with each other promoting connectivity.

4. Any project built on a blockchain should be able to interact with other projects on that chain.

5. Ecosystem of a blockchain: This means projects existing on a particular blockchain, its users and community as well as their tokens should be able to exist on that same chain.

6. How to identify a good Algorand Ecosystem as a user:

* DeFi projects built on them

* NFT projects

* Their foundation

* GameFi

* De-Centralised storage & oracle service projects.

* Finance projects

7. How to identify a good Algorand Ecosystem as an Investor;

* Who’s funding them?

* Who are their team members?

* Who’s the founder?

8. The value of a token comes from the liquidity paired to it and the use case of its project.
