Lithium Finance: Wisdom Node Highlight
The journey to 1,000+ Wisdom Nodes has been exciting, and the Lithium business team has had the pleasure of meeting and interacting with lots of high-profile executives, business owners, creatives, and subject matter experts across multiple fields.
As you know, the Lithium Finance data oracle will leverage collective intelligence to price and value illiquid assets like pre-IPO stocks, gaming, NFT’s, secondary tokens, and more.
- On one side of the marketplace, we have Wisdom Seekers (individuals and entities that need pricing information) like Injective Protocol, Clearpool, Credfi, and a lot of our extensive partner network.
- We also have Wisdom Nodes (individuals/entities with knowledge of illiquid assets) like Pantera Capital and Hashed. These individuals/entities have specialized knowledge in the digital and traditional asset space and have joined the Lithium ecosystem to share their knowledge in exchange for $LITH tokens.
Today, we are pleased to share some insights on one of our many Wisdom Nodes (for privacy reasons, we will not publish his name).
