RE: In Defence And Praise Of The Crypto Snowflake
It was a bit of a ramble this post and not sure about it! Just an idea I was trying to explore, maybe not so well.
And I agree, looking at the constitution and property rights and the emphasis being on action. Where this all leads to is something new, at least I hope it's new! There is the need for investment but at some point, if it's working, the investment will be measured in communities rather than dollars. Not sure when that will happen but with dapps being so much easier on Eos hopefully soonish. When developers in those marginalised areas are writing the revolutionary dapps, can't wait for that.
Some talk in telegram recently that I tend towards and Brock Pierce used to say is that your main 'property' is you, it's your reputation. But we need some stronger identity tools/features to explore it. There are lots of options there with some more worrying than others and there is always the radical transparency approach. I'm in for radical transparency I think.
Thanks for your comments @conceptskip. It was great fun watching the launch. How hard is it to become a block producer! I wonder if there will be another chain with all those idle bps.
I like that on steem, that often you just start writing, and it's not the well composed article but still exciting discussions evolve. Interesting thought, that it would get more into communnity aspects, than just investment. A lot of dapps or projects seem to be oriented towards community-building. Just listened to dallas rushing today, who introduced his karma dapp, which will reward people based on good deeds, that are upvoted, or Kyle from Hirevibes, who suggested charity conducted via blockchain. How far is that from store-of-value-btc? With reputation you can also do very much, bit likely there are still problems possible. What do you undestand as radical transparency?
The launch is really exciting, only i'd hope for a bit more speed.... Thanks from my side as well for inspiring thoughts!
You've probably read it already but the radical transparency part comes from Dan's post. It's brave but I'm in (I think!)
And exactly, how far from a store of value - a very long way but much more valuable!
