Crypto concepts many people haven't brained :
- the cryptocurrency revolution is fundamentally a "governance technology" revolution; it just happens to attack incumbent financial structures
- most cryptocurrencies are "fiat"; they're just not nation-state-issued/regulated fiat
- decentralised finance "de-fi" is not "a sector of the crypto industry"; it's the fundamental gov-tech approach driving the entire sector
- cryptocurrency issuers are basically voluntary organisations using a self-issued currency; old laws for managing religious bodies and other non-profits, and any related issuances of currency, may be sufficient to govern new activities
- one of the incumbent design-patterns in gov/fin-tech is the "fractional reserve bank" and related systems; the silver lining the entire industry is driving towards is simply the question of what design-patterns can improve on, supplement, or replace fractional-reserve banks
Thanks for coming to my talk.
