many such cases x.com/domdosu/statusโ€ฆ
Dom Dosu ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ@domdosu

Thomas Jefferson was so deeply in debt after years of using leverage against his land to fund a lavish lifestyle that he resorted to auctioning off Monticello by selling ~11,000 tickets for $10 each (~$2-3MM today), turning his entire estate into a lottery He died before things played out and Monticello was sold to pay creditors Those identifying with the permanent underclass saw this as a shot at escaping. The idea of "hypergambling into elite status" dates back to the inception of the United States and continues to show up in markets and culture, manifesting itself into what we see as the hyperfinancialization of quite literally everything Itโ€™s one of the primary reasons I remain optimistic on crypto and speculation in general (beyond adoption of crypto rails) Itโ€™s the most efficient large scale lottery/casino weโ€™ve seen in decades, and I donโ€™t see that changing anytime soon

cash lottery to a social leaderboard defaults to purposeless offramp. tickets can accrue by evolving social criteria, redraws can be secondarily priced, and some productive assets can be stewarded from a distance.

a permissionless goods lottery needs escrow, where the winning ticket can call a redraw after grace period. the reputation can be derived, rather than incentivizing frivolous complaints. lots of options, like transferrability or delegation to chain of custody.

when you normalize giving discretionary emergency powers to a committee, you effectively import the worst parts of the existing "democratic" system in other words you import democracy with discretion over specific groups/actors. this combination is effectively what the administrative-state critique, from hayek through the public-choice literature through the post-2008 financial-regulation debates, has targeted you can try to justify via the ends all you want but procedurally it runs counter to the raison d'etre of crypto if you're going to have rules to deal with these things that are credibly neutral then they cannot be discretionary, which means they need to be formally articulated in advance and be generally applicable

I feel like it kind of gets glossed over that semantic information can be expressed as vectors. Thatโ€™s surprising, right?

@gfodor no, the labor market won't collapse except for some premium, and that income will need to be supplemented by a competition of dividends. there's always more solar power and signal to process at a distance.

It would be much easier if you're going to take a position against UBI you say if you agree or disagree with the premise that AI is going to collapse the market price of human labor, and propose an alternative solution. 99% of commentators are failing this simple test.

airdrops don't need to be extractive, the project can release a permit/NFT/GPU periodically, and the proceeds from the market discovery remains accountable to public results (without revealing everything else). warrant problem isn't as severe if tickets are soulbound.

Imagine the prices of all goods and services were slashed by 1000x, but if you tried to find a job, raise money for a startup, or sell anything yourself youโ€™d find no counterparty whatsoever. Now imagine thatโ€™s true for most people. Whatโ€™s the logical solution to this?

the irony of AI policy is that the ideal can be really boring what you mean, we need to drop the cost of land freight to zero?
