Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Buybacks mechanically raise price, and crypto needs them because token holders have no legal rights. There is positive evidence for buybacks. However, buybacks compound slowly and fail if the business is a flash in the pan. Teams that ran points programs have a moral duty to show alignment through buybacks. Investors should buy coins where the protocol is the marginal buyer.
