Summary
2020 has seen some monumental changes, and it’s hard to know exactly what ripple effects we will see in many areas of our lives. Trust is breaking down in a fundamental way throughout the world. A balance of global communication or knowledge and local action seems to be needed to address some of the issues we are facing today. Will a breakdown of supply chains fuel a shift to more local economies? Will we be able to create systems that more efficiently allocate resources like food to create a better baseline for community health? How can we create a kind of trust liquidity without using a price-discovery mechanism that destroys its integrity?
Communities can decide on tokens or some other store of value to trade, but there has to be some way of securing the total supply for it to facilitate trade.
How do we create value, and how does value get represented in these economies?
What would it mean to create digital nation states that include a cross-section of life and allow them to decide where value is created and how to distribute it?
How do we engage and become digital missionaries?
One of the key layers is a network of communities - no human can survive alone. We have new tools, and are fashioning a new society with them on top of our legacy ruins. We’re now seeing the effects of an emphasis on wealth accumulation while ignoring the effects of ecological damage. When is the engine going to blow?
